Who is going to be the next head coach for the Memphis Tigers? Yesterday, several media outlets hinted that Alabama offensive coordinator Jim McElwain accepted the job. Today, it appears that McElwain did indeed accept the offer, but later backed off. Next up, TCU co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Justin Fuente. Both would be solid hires with strong resumes.
A new favorite spot for Midtowners is Alchemy. Located in the Cooper Young area, Alchemy has a trendy feel that you may find in a larger city. Some have compared it to something you would find in New York, but Atlanta may be more on par. The bartenders pour mean drinks, they have a great wine list, the food (all small plates) has consistently exceeded expectations and it is a great location for people watching. The mac and cheese is highly recommended.
