INDIANAPOLIS - Robert Dozier of Lithonia High School in Georgia announced Tuesday that he would attend Memphis and play for coach John Calipari after next season. <br> <br> Dozier is a 6-foot-8, 191-pound forward. He averaged 9.3 points, 5 rebounds and three assists last season as he burst onto the recruiting scene quickly. <br> <br> Linzy Davis, who coaches the Team Georgia Elite AAU team, said Dozier first drew attention when he played with the U.S. national team in France. <br> <br> Dozier said he chose Memphis over Florida State, Georgia, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Clemson because he wanted to play for Calipari. <br> <br> ``It&#39;s a perfect situation for me,&#39;&#39; Dozier said while in Indianapolis for the Nike All-American Camp. ``It&#39;s close to home, I like the scene, I like it there and I like coach Calipari.&#39;&#39;
