Tubby Smith is picking up where The Boy Coach left off.
Nick Marshall,a 6-11, 248 lbs., 4 Star sophomore forward has left the Tiger program. Marshall had 3 points and 2.6 rebounds as a freshman, but was expected to have a larger role this year following the graduation of big man Shaq Goodwin.
This leaves Memphis with only 8 scholarship players, and they will be playing small. The Lawson Brothers and a 2 Star juco transfer are the only players over 6-5.
