Tubby lands Memphis point guard
Tubby Smith finally landed a potential replacement for senior point guard Al Nolan this weekend as Memphis-based point guard Andre Hollins committed to the maroon and gold for the 2011 recruiting class. Though rated a three-star prospect, many believe his potential is currently undervalued and that he could start in his freshman year.
Hollins is the latest addition to Smith’s 2011 recruiting class, which also included Hopkins swingman Joe Coleman., another three-star recruit. Hollins became Smith’s top target after failing to land either Harrison Barnes, who selected North Carolina, or Cory Joseph, who chose Texas over Minnesota.
Whether he used document management software to manage his list of recruits or not, Smith found a solid prospect in Hollins. Job done, despite losing out of some better options. Now to fill out the rest of the recruiting list.
