RT @GCRivalsGlenn: 2014 SG Temarcus Blanton lists Murray St, George Mason, Bama, UNCC, Ole Miss, UGA, Miss St, and App St as schools showing most interest.
2014 Wing TeMarcus Blanton (Luella HS/Ga) w/offers from Ole Miss, MissSt, Charlotte, George Mason, Murray St & others.
[font=Arial][size=13px]Keep an eye on Temarcus Blanton: No one at the Pitt Hoop Group Jam Fest has had as good of a week as Temarcus Blanton, a 6-foot-4 off-guard from Georgia that plays for Atlanta Xpress.
Blanton, who currently is not ranked by Rivals, is often overlooked on the AAU circuit by more highly-regarded teammates, but he put on a show against Team Thad (TN) on Friday night and against Squires Richmond (VA) on Saturday night. The Class of 2014 product was a terror in transition, getting to the rim at will and often finishing while drawing a foul.
“I wanna play fast,” Blanton said. “Just keep running. It’s my style. When it comes time, I want to have the ball in my hands. I’m confident.”
Blanton said that he currently holds offers from George Mason, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Mercer and Murray State, and that schools like Cincinnati, Alabama and Tennessee have started to show interest.
What’s interesting about Blanton is that he’s not only looking for his “best chance of playing” when it comes to a college, but he wants a school with a good Sports Management program. He said that he wants to get into coaching once his playing career comes to an end, but that his dream is to be a commentator.
“I like being on TV,” he said. “I like to talk.”

[quote=“earlyniner, post:13, topic:27239”]but there’s the colvard student center in starkville.[/quote]Yes, there will always be that connection between Charlotte and Starkville. And the latter is appropriately named!
I’m pretty sure he was picking flowers because there was absolutely nothing else to do here. I am putting in my paperwork to apply for Charlotte’s MPA program and get out of here. My favorite part about this town is a building that someone graffitied “destroy this building” on it.
Seriously, Temarcus, do not come here. Also, george mason sucks. DC is loaded with crime and drugged up hobos. Come to Charlotte. Southern girls are hotter.

Mason isn’t in DC… It’s near Burke. A boring suburb. Very boring. Seriously, there’s more to do in University City than there is near Mason.
Temarcus Blanton has offers from South Carolina, Memphis, Florida State, Charleston, George Mason, Auburn, Mercer, Appalachian State, Ole Miss, Charlotte, Georgia Southern, Georgia State, Jacksonville, and Southern Mississippi.
