Former Kansas State forward Nae'Qwan Tomlin will join the Memphis basketball team as a midseason transfer, according to sources.

Tomlin was dismissed from the Kansas State team last week after he was arrested in October following a fight at a bar in the Aggieville district of Manhattan. He reportedly has been granted a diversion in the case, but K-State cut ties with him on December 6.

Kansas, Arizona, Indiana, Purdue, Kentucky, Michigan State, West Virginia and Auburn were all interested in Tomlin.

Since Tomlin did not see playing time for the Wildcats this season, he will be eligible to play right away once he is officially admitted to the University of Memphis.
