Yarbrough didn't quite live up to his high school clippings in college, but he did evolve into a nice player with a range of skills. He can shoot the three-pointer, though he's streaky, and go to the basket as well as anyone -- when he's so inclined. Yarbrough can also rebound well for his size, and with his long arms and great leaping ability can be a nasty offensive rebounder. Yarbrough also can pass, and gets his hands on a lot of loose balls. He was Tennessee's all-time steals leader with 211.
