Rennia Davis, a 6-foot-2 wing and the No. 12 prospect in the espnW HoopGurlz Top 100, announced Sunday that she has signed with Tennessee.The senior at Ribault (Jacksonville, Florida) signed her national letter of intent on Wednesday but kept it a secret.I woke up [Tuesday] morning, and throughout the day all I could think about was the color orange, Davis said. My top three choices came down to Kansas, Maryland and Tennessee. I also considered Oklahoma and Georgia Tech. I dont like to rush, so I took my time in the process, and Tennessee is my choice.Davis, who helped lead Ribault to a Florida state title as a junior, is, simply put, a gamer. She wants the ball in her hands at crunch time. And she knows what to do with it. Shes ultra-athletic with deep range and is explosive off the dribble. After winning the state title, Davis lifted Ribault to a national title at the Dicks Sporting Goods high school tournament at New Yorks Madison Square Garden in April. Davis scored 23 points in the final and was named MVP.To say shes off to a fast start this season would be an understatement. She was a steal short of a quadruple-double on Monday, finishing with 38 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists and nine steals. She followed that up with a 43-point game on Wednesday.Davis is the fourth member of Holly Warlicks class, which leapfrogs Connecticut and moves to the top of the class rankings. Davis joins No. 2 Evina Westbrook of South Salem (Oregon), No. 9 Anastasia Hayes of Riverdale (Murfreesboro, Tennessee) and No. 55 Kasiyahna Kushkituah of St. Francis (Alpharetta, Georgia).Yes, this was a difficult decision for me, one of those things that brings you into adulthood, Davis said. But, ultimately, it was my decision. Air Max 97 Nz Wholesale .

"Its embarrassing to be at home and play the way we did," said defenceman Josh Gorges. NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Marc Mariani feels like hes back home again, and the Tennessee Titans feel much more confident about whos catching kicks and punts for them.The Titans announced Monday they signed Mariani and waived wide receiver Tre McBride.Mariani spent his first four NFL seasons with the Titans, though he spent two of those on injured reserve. He spent the last two seasons with the Chicago Bears, who waived him on Saturday. Mariani, who kept his house in Nashville, was at practice Monday and said it feels good to be back with the Titans who drafted him in the seventh round out of Montana in 2010.I didnt want to leave the first time, and Im excited to be with a team and an organization that I love and that has treated me so well and also a team that I really think I can help and wants me to help and contribute, Mariani said. It feels good to be wanted down here, and Im excited to get things rolling.Mariani was a Pro Bowl returner as a rookie but was on injured reserve for both 2012 and 2013. The Titans released him in the final cuts of August 2014, and Chicago signed him in November that year. Titans coach Mike Mularkey was coaching tight ends on Ken Whisenhunts staff in 2014 and said Tennessee brought Maariani back for his return skills.ddddddddddddReally it gives us somebody in both areas that we can use as a returner that has been to the Pro Bowl because of it, Mularkey said. Hes had a lot of success. It was good for this team. This team is excited to have him back. I think the fans will be, as well. Hes one of these guys weve been talking about -- tough, dependable and team-first. He fits right in with us right away.Mularkey said the Titans gave players chances to win the job as returner. They also released Dexter McCluster, who had returned punts, on Friday.We gave guys chances, Mularkey said. We attempted to develop. You can say that about a lot of guys. Thats your job, and sometimes it doesnt work that way. No, I havent given that a second thought.The 29-year-old Mariani has career averages of 9.5 yards per punt return and 25 yards per kickoff return. He has scored on two punt returns and one kickoff return. He also has 27 career catches, with 22 of them coming last season.---Online:AP NFL website: http://www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
