McDonalds' All-American MVP Tyreke Evans will replace Derrick Rose at the University of Memphis next season, the Memphis Flyer is reporting.

Evans announced Wednesday that he will sign with Memphis a day after one-and-done star Rose declared for the NBA draft.

"It was hard to decide against staying home at Villanova, but I just think the Memphis program fits what I want to do," said Evans, who chose the Tigers over Villanova and Texas.
