Summary

Gary Parrish joins the show in-studio for the first hour and they'll open the show talking about the Grizzlies buying out Kyle Anderson, then signing Taj Gibson, why they need a vet like Taj Gibson, and why he helps the team off the court (5:17). Penny's Tigers lost again last night...this time to Wichita. Chris says, from what he's hearing, Penny is going to have a GM next year to fix the roster. Gary Parrish talks about why most schools need a GM at this point and they relate it to their own careers. Next, they'll talk about a player nobody is talking about who could go higher in the NBA Draft than where mock drafts have him...then Gary tells stories about his musician buddy Jason D. Williams (15:18). In the last segment, we'll touch on the NFL Draft Combine and how Ohio State LB Sonny Styles and S Caleb Downs have impressed teams the most (1:23:54). We also have Grizz/Mavs and Thunder/Nuggets tonight (1:31:44)
