Jarnell Stokes is coming to Rocky Top

Jarnell Stokes from Southwind high in Memphis, the #11 overall recruit in the country committed to Tennessee last night. Stokes is a 6’8″ 255 lb power forward. Bruce Pearl started Stokes’ recruitment over a year ago, and Cuonzo Martin closed it yesterday. Stokes chose the Vols over, Florida, Kentucky, Arkansas, UConn, and his hometown Tigers. What a great early get for Coach Martin. Now for the best news. Stokes is graduating early, and will play in January for the Vols. This will give him at least a year and a half in orange.

Welcome to Big Orange Country Jarnell!

It’s not very often our BasketVols pull 5 star recruits … not very often for football either to be honest. HUGE get for CCM. Can’t wait to see Jarnell joining the team in January and jumping into conference play.

This guy should be on campus for at least the next two years and will be looked at as the player who will help get this program back on its feet and trending in the right direction. Yesterday was absolutely the most important day of the Martin tenure thus far.
