Began his college career at Vanderbilt, but transferred to Missouri after two seasons with the Commodores, helping lead the Tigers to an Elite Eight appearance in the this past season`s NCAA Tournament...Proved to be one of the more dangerous players in the Big 12, as he earned a selection on the All-Big 12 First Team behind 16.6 ppg and 7.2 rpg in 2008-09...Very tough competitor with the will win...Does not possess top-notch skills at either end of the floor, but his hustle and strength make him an intriguing prospect...Has nice touch on his jump shot, but is more comfortable running the floor on fast breaks.
