2012 Tigers Hoops Signees Damien Wilson 6-6/190 Mableton, Ga./Oak Hill Academy

Shaq Goodwin 6-8/230 Decatur, Ga./Southwest DeKalb

Wilson, who is finishing his senior year at Oak Hill Academy, is rated the No. 63 overall prospect in the Class of 2012 by ESPNU. Originally from the Atlanta area, Wilson was a member of the Atlanta Celtics AAU team, which has produced talent such as current NBA stars Josh Smith and Dwight Howard. A lefty that likes to slash in the lane to get his buckets, Wilson led his Oak Hill team last December with 20 points in an 80-59 win over Melrose, which featured current Tiger Adonis Thomas. Oak Hill finished the season with a 31-4 record while Wilson, a former Mableton (Ga.) Pebblebrook High standout, averaged 12 points per game. Wilson is rated as the No. 18 shooting guard and No. 90 overall prospect by Yahoo! and Rivals Sports. Scout ranks him as a four-star prospect and the nation’s No. 21 overall small forward. Max Preps ranks him as the No. 1 prospect in the state of Virginia and the No. 23 overall recruit.

Goodwin helped lead Southwest DeKalb High School to a 24-6 record in 2010-11 before losing 70-53 to Rockdayle County in the Class AAAA Georgia State Championship game. Goodwin averaged a double-double of 18 points and 10.1 rebounds per game last season at Southwest DeKalb while shooting over 70 percent from the floor. He also averaged 3.2 blocks per contest.

Goodwin’s best performance came in a playoff win over Lakeside in which he scored 41 points and pulled down 10 rebounds. Goodwin received Georgia Class AAAA All-State first team honors for his performance during the 2010-11 season. The 2011-12 Southwest DeKalb team was also ranked No. 25 in MaxPreps.com’s preseason national rankings. Goodwin is also a part of the same AAU program as Wilson, the Atlanta Celtics. Alumni of the Celtics include current NBA players Dwight Howard, Josh Smith, Derrick Favors, Joe Johnson and Amare Stoudemire.

Game #32/C-USA Tour. • Memphis vs. UTEP/Houston • Page 6 FLOYD NOT A BLUFF CITY NEWBIE • Of course, longtime Tigers fans know UTEP head coach Tim Floyd is not a newbie to Memphis.

• But, prior to the team’s Feb. 18 meeting earlier this year, it had been awhile since he coached against the Tigers in the Bluff City — as in 22 seasons ago.

• In the 1989-90 campaign, Floyd brought his New Orleans squad to face Memphis at MidSouth Coliseum.

• Floyd’s Privateers played a close game with the No. 17-ranked Tigers before dropping a 59-55 decision on Dec. 20, 1989.

PASTNER VS. FLOYD — A PAC-10 REUNION • Thursday’s possible contest may be only the fourth meeting between Josh Pastner and Tim Floyd as head coaches, but the two have a history from their days in the Pacific-10 Conference.

• Pastner was an assistant on the Arizona staff from 2003-08, while Floyd was the Southern Cal head coach from 2006-09.

• The Wildcats and Trojans met six times from 2006-08, and Southern Cal won four of those six games.

Houston Notes WHAT THE COUGARS DID LAST YEAR • Houston posted a 12-18 overall record and a 4-12 Conference USA mark.

• The Cougars finished in 11th place in the CUSA regular season standings.

• Houston dropped a 97-87 decision to Marshall in the C-USA Tournament first round.

• Houston is out-rebounding its opponents by an average margin of +2.2 boards per game (36.234.0).

PASTNER VS. THE HOMETOWN SCHOOL • Thursday’s possible match-up with Houston would pit Tigers head coach Josh Pastner against one of his hometown area schools.

• Pastner is a Kingwood, Texas, native, and Kingwood is a suburb of Houston. In fact, Pastner grew up around 20 miles from the University of Houston campus.

• Pastner, who attended Kingwood High School, coached the Houston Hoops summer ball team during his high school and collegiate (Arizona) days.

• Pastner has a 3-2 record versus the Cougars (0-1 in C-USA Tournament action).

• Overall, Pastner has coached against three Houston area NCAA Division I programs (Houston, Houston Baptist, Rice) and has a 6-3 record in those match-ups.

A COWBOYS REUNION THURSDAY • Thursday’s possible game between the Tigers and Cougars could also be a reunion of former Cowboys — as in Oklahoma State Cowboys — on the two benches.

• Memphis assistant coach Jimmy Williams and Houston head coach James Dickey both were on Eddie Sutton’s staff from 2004-07.

• In their three seasons (2004-05, 2005-06, 200607) together on staff, Williams and Dickey helped Oklahoma State to a combined record of 65-36 and three postseason appearances (2005 NCAA, 2006 and 2007 NIT).

• In the 2005 NCAA Tournament, Oklahoma State — with Williams and Dickey on the Cowboys bench — advanced to the Sweet Sixteen, where it dropped a 79-78 decision to Arizona.

On the Wildcats staff that year were assistant coach Josh Pastner and video scout coordinator Jack Murphy.

UTEP 60 • Memphis 58 Feb. 18, 2012 • Memphis, Tenn. • FedExForum Despite Tarik Black’s double-double of 26 points and 10 rebounds, the Memphis Tigers dropped a narrow 60-58 decision to the UTEP Miners in Conference USA action at FedExForum.

Trailing 28-19 at the half, UTEP came out of the locker room on a 9-2 run to cut the lead to 30-28 and never stopped pressuring the Tigers. Every time Memphis appeared poised to pull away, the Miners had an answer.

The Tigers led 43-37 with 10 minutes to play and then 51-44 with 6:25 remaining, but UTEP closed the game on a 16-7 run to capture its first road win of the season. Michael Perez led UTEP — which made 11of-18 shots in the second half — with 15 points, while Jacques Streeter added 14.

The Miners appeared poised to tie the game at 55all, as Gabriel McCulley drove hard for a slam dunk.

Will Barton, however, met McCulley at the rim and denied the dunk attempt to preserve the Memphis lead.

Perez, however, tied it on the next Miner possession with two free throws.

After a botched Tigers possession, Cedric Lang made two free throws on the next UTEP trip to give the Miners their first lead of the game, a 57-55 advantage with 1:19 to play. A turnover on the next possession for Memphis resulted in two more free throws that pushed the lead to 59-55. Joe Jackson then missed a layup, and the Miners tacked on one more point to make it 60-55 with 24 seconds remaining.

On the ensuing possession, Will Barton drove down and hit a quick three to cut it 60-58 with 20 seconds remaining and keep Memphis alive. The Tigers then forced a turnover on UTEP’s inbounds play and

NO SOPHOMORE JINX • Tiger Nation is so happy Will Barton didn’t suffer from a subpar season as a sophomore.

• In fact, the 6-foot-6 guard has thrived in his second year, and his scoring numbers prove it.

• The Baltimore, Md., native is the team’s leading scorer at 18.7 ppg and is also Conference USA’s leading scorer.

• Barton moved into the top-five among top sophomore scorers in the program’s history with his 18-point game versus UCF Feb. 28.

had the ball trailing 60-58 with less than 15 seconds left. Out of the timeout, Jackson found Will Barton on the left wing for a three-point attempt, but it fell short as the Tigers dropped their first game since losing to Southern Miss on Feb. 1.

Black was the only Tiger to finish in double figures, while Will Barton added in nine points and five rebounds in 34 minutes. Jackson had seven points, while Witherspoon scored five points and Ferrakohn Hall had four.

Memphis 89 • Houston 55 Jan. 14, 2012 • Houston, Texas • Hofheinz Pavilion Memphis held Houston scoreless for a stretch of 7:38 during the second half and defeated the Cougars 89-55 in a Conference USA match-up, before a crowd of 5,146 at Hofheinz Pavilion.

Chris Crawford scored 19 points, including 15 from long-range, and dished out four assists. Will Barton recorded his ninth double-double of the season with 14 points and 10 boards.

After the Cougars cut the Tigers’ lead to singledigits at 47-39 with 16:34 remaining, Memphis responded with an 18-0 run. Houston was held without a field goal for a span of 11:02, including the nearly eight-minute scoreless stretch.

On the evening, Memphis limited Houston to a mere 33.9 percent (19-of-56) shooting and 8.3 percent (1-for-12) from beyond the arc. Memphis hasn’t allowed an opponent to shoot over 40 percent in a game since Georgetown connected on 43.1 percent (22-of51), a six-game streak in which Memphis has won each contest.

The Tigers connected on 55.7 percent (34-of-61) of its field goal attempts and 42.9 percent (6-of-14) from three-point territory. Memphis dominated nearly every statistical category, rebounds (41-31), points in the paint (48-28), fast break points (20-6), points off turnovers (21-8) and bench points (34-19).

Joe Jackson added 16 points and handed out a game-high five assists. Tarik Black rounded out the double-figure scorers for Memphis with 10 points, six rebounds and five blocks.

Memphis knocked down 50 percent (15-of-30) of its first half shots, and Will Barton tallied seven points and seven boards en route to building an 11-point lead at 41-30 at the halftime break. Houston only connected on 36.7 percent (11-of-30) of its field goal attempts, the third-straight half in which the Tigers’ opponent has been held below 40 percent.

• The 6-foot-6 guard leads C-USA in scoring and is also ranked in the top-10 in rebounding.

• His 10 double-doubles are tied for the fourthmost by a Tiger in a season since 2000-01.

DOUBLE-DOUBLE, 21ST CENTURY STYLE • Will Barton has 10 double-doubles this year, currently tied for the fourth-most double-doubles in a single season since 2000-01.

Memphis 83 • Marshall 76 Jan. 28, 2012 • Memphis, Tenn.

Will Barton dropped in a career-high 29 points, and Tarik Black chipped in a season-high 19 points for Memphis, which pulled out an 83-76 Conference USA win against visiting Marshall at FedExForum. Wesley Witherspoon provided a key second-half spark for the Tigers and totaled 12 points in the contest.

Memphis was trailing Marshall 62-59 when Witherspoon made his presence felt.

He first grabbed an errant pass in the paint and took it the length of the floor for a lay-in.

Witherspoon then ignited the crowd with another steal and coast-to-coast layup off the next Marshall possession. He followed by taking a charge on the defensive end, which led to a free throw by Black.

On the ensuing possession, Witherspoon stole the ball from Dennis Tinnon, who was then whistled for an intentional foul for grabbing Witherspoon in the open court.

Marshall led 41-40 at the end of a testy first half.

The referees handed out a pair of technical fouls for two-separate instances where players were jawing back-and-forth. Marshall’s Tinnon and DeAndre Kane and Memphis’ Antonio Barton and Crawford were the four individuals on the receiving end of the technical foul calls.

Chris Crawford scored a career-high 23 points, but was unable to connect on a three-point shot at the buzzer and Southern Miss defeated Memphis 75-72. Crawford connected on 9-of-15 (60.0 percent) field goal attempts, including 5-of-7 (71.4 percent) from three-point range.

Memphis trailed Southern Miss 69-65 with under a minute to play when Will Barton grabbed an errant free throw attempt and drove the length of the floor. Barton drew a foul and sank both free throws.

Barton then fouled Neil Watson, who knocked down a pair of shots from the charity stripe, and Joe Jackson immediately pushed the ball up the court for the lay-in, keeping the Tigers’ deficit at two points (71-69).

Despite shooting 56.3 percent (27-for-48) from the floor and limiting Southern Miss to 41.1 percent (23-of56), Memphis couldn’t overcome its lackluster rebounding effort and a strong free-throw shooting performance by the Golden Eagles.

Memphis was outrebounded 36-23 leading to 15 second-chance points for Southern Miss. The Golden Eagles also connected on 24-of-27 (88.9 percent) of their free throws, compared to 13-of-17 (76.5 percent) for the Tigers.

Memphis 72 • Xavier 68 Feb. 4, 2012 • Memphis, Tenn.

Memphis used a 17-1 run over a six-minute span at the end of the game to defeat Xavier 72-68 in a non-league game at FedExForum. Wesley Witherspoon scored 12 points, all in the second half, to give the Tigers the spark they needed to defeat Xavier.

Xavier opened the second half with nine-straight points to turn its 35-34 halftime lead into a 44-34 advantage. But, just as he did in the Jan. 28 win over Marshall, Witherspoon came off the bench to provide a lift for Memphis.

In a three-minute span in the second half, Witherspoon knocked down a pair of threepoint shots and drew a charge on the defensive end, helping the Tigers cut the Musketeers’ lead to six at 62-56 with under six minutes to play.

After an Andre Walker free throw for Xavier, Witherspoon finished an old-fashioned three-point play to cut the Musketeers lead to 63-59, igniting the 17,097 fans in attendance.

Moments later, Antonio Barton hit a layup, and Joe Jackson converted a pair of free throws, tying the contest Tigers Tails at 63-all with 2:12 left. Antonio Barton then made another • Joe Jackson tied a career high with eight assists.

Will Barton scored 10 first-half points, but Memphis found itself trailing Xavier 35-34 at the conclusion of the first 20 minutes of action. Tarik Black chipped in nine points and both Barton and Black grabbed four rebounds in the opening half.

Memphis led by as many as 19 points before defeating East Carolina 70-59 in a Conference USA match-up at Williams Arena. Chris Crawford scored a game-high 16 points, and Will Barton chipped in 15 points. Joe Jackson added seven points and seven assists.

Wesley Witherspoon continued his strong play over the last four games, posting 12 points and a season-high 11 rebounds. The double-double was Witherspoon’s first since recording 28 points and 14 rebounds against Lipscomb on Dec. 30, 2010. It was Witherspoon’s third career double-double.

Six-straight points from Crawford put Memphis up by 16 points at 46-30 early in the second half, but a four-minute Tigers scoreless streak and 10-point run by East Carolina allowed the Pirates to cut the lead to 46-40.
