Welcome to On the Bluff Episode 5. 

In the first segment, Gabe and Christian talk about the news of Tiger guard Damaria Franklin being deemed eligible by the NCAA on Monday, December 12th. The guys discuss the impact they believe Damaria will have for this Tigers' team that is coming off a resounding 82-73 win over the #11 Auburn Tigers over the weekend. They break down the play of senior guard Kendric Davis, who poured in 27 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists in 38 minutes. Kendric Davis has been everything Tiger fans hoped and dreamed for when he signed with the Tigers during the offseason. Gabe and Christian discuss how impactful his presence on the court has been for the Tigers and how the Tigers can go as far as Kendric Davis can take them. 

They transition to talk about the upcoming matchup against #4 Alabama in Tuscaloosa on Tuesday night. The Tigers are playing the third game of a four game stretch against SEC schools and are sitting at 2-0. The guys believe this matchup will be the hardest the Tigers will face during this four game battle. 

In the second segment, Gabe and Christian discuss the big week in Tiger football recruiting. The Tigers picked up another big transfer in the #5 ranked JUCO player in the country, DL Derick Hunter. Derick was a 4-star defensive lineman from Fort Myers, FL and held offers from Arkansas, Florida State and Colorado before ultimately deciding to join Ryan Silverfield and the Memphis Tigers. Gabe and Christian discuss the class that Ryan Silverfield is putting together and how they believe all these pieces will fit together with the schemes that the Tigers put on the field.
