Doneal Mack was on that team as well.
Rodney Carney was from Indiana.
the OP stipulated the list should not include guys recruited by Calipari
Thank you!
And to answer the question higher up in the thread, I would NOT include David Vaughn or Keith Lee since - although technically out of state - they are from the Memphis area.
And it seems like it pretty much comes down to Kenon, Barton and Shaq Goodwin.
The point remains: unless the Memphis-area HS bb talent is really, really good (and there have been some down periods) I really don't think Tubby is going to magically land some big time out-of-state talent.
I also don't think that Larry really tried to recruit out of state guys. He had his backyard and that's where his entire focus was.
