John, It’s J.P. Prince. Not J.R. Side note for UK fans- Although, Coach Cal, who recruited Prince out of high school (JP was from the Memphis area) and knew JP really well when he was in HS, once famously ticked off UT fans by screwing up his name on PTI, seemingly on purpose just after the Vols knocked off his Tigers when they were #1.
Thanks for the correction. Unlike Coach Cal, I didn’t do it on purpose. Promise.
