HOUSTON, Texas -- Aaric Murray, Texas Southern. Murray looked like one of the nation's best big men when he played at La Salle, but ended up at Texas Southern trying to repair his image after being dismissed from the team at West Virginia. After a visit to John Lucas' rehabilitation center and earning his degree, Murray has resurrected his image, his game and his NBA chances with his third college team. A powerful 6-10, 245 pounds, he's been an unstoppable force in the SWAC, scoring 23.8 points per game - fourth nationally - while shooting 48 percent from the floor, grabbing 8.2 rebounds and blocking 2.3 shots per game. Murray had 48 points against Temple, the most ever scored against the Owls, and has shown that he now has the maturity to go with that NBA-ready body.
