Former Memphis prep star Jarnell Stokes may have turned down Kentucky to announce his intentions to enroll at Tennessee, but the 6-foot-8 forward, ranked 11th by Rivals, is still a fan of John Calipari.
This quote from the Memphis Commercial Appeal:
I know a lot of people around here don’t think highly of him, but he’s actually a very engaging guy.
Also, Commercial Appeal’s Jason Smith tweeted that Calipari made a strong push for the Memphis native on Wednesday night before the Thursday announcement.
