I haven't heard anything about his eligibility with Southwind. I know they got the letter, but they're not saying what the ruling was.

As for his visit to Arky, he'll say the same thing about his visits elsewhere. He'll rave about the UT and get the Vol fans all wound-up as well. He's loving the recruiting limelight. Memphis is the last stop I believe. Don't nobody want to go live in Arkansas.
Mike Anderson was a mediocre recruiter at UAB, a mediocre recruiter at Mizzou and will be a mediocre recruiter at Arkansas.

Seems like you have Arkansas fans' grammar down.

Stokes is an attention whore though.

Hate to say it, but I'm getting the feeling that he's leaning towards Arkansas...hope we can land him though. Also, he doesn't strike me as an attention whore. He's not doing anything different than any other high-profile recruit besides maintaining a blog.

Besides rewteeting every tweet he receives from any fanbase with his name in it. After his visit to Arkansas, I'm more convinced than ever that he'll be in Memphis blue next season.

I feel very confident that the chances are as good for UT as they are for Arkansas or Memphis.

Arkansas just lost out on one of their top prospects to Houston over the weekend. Chicken Knowles was probably their third most sought after prospect, after Archie Goodwin and Jarnell Stokes. Mike Anderson already making a habit of losing top players to C-USA schools. Doesn't set a good precedent.

So, has he committed to us, yet?

I wish that was the case. It seems we made up ground (according to Adam Zagoria- Tennessee Makes Pitch for Stokes | ZagsBlog.com) but don't know if its enough. I think it would work in our favor if he didn't commit anywhere until the Spring and gives the coaching staff enough time to make up more ground throughout the season. It would also give Jarnell an idea of the style of play Martin runs.

A memphis fan in Knoxville? Did you have to move to Knoxville from memphis, or do you just love misery and being ridiculed?

I really think he just plays the game well. He seems to like every visit and talk up each team at sometime or the other. I think a lot of it is really to just mess with the Memphis fans, because they start a new thread on their board for each tweet he throws out.

He just had an inhome with Donovan and Florida, and tweeted about how amazing Donovan and his staff was. I take everything that the kid says with a grain of salt. It does sort of seem like either: a. He's almost like an attention crazed HS girlfriend, trying to make her boyfriend jealous by bragging about how much other guys are hitting on her, or b. He really has no interest in Memphis at all, because with all these tweets about Arky, Florida, etc., I haven't seen one about how awesome Memphis' staff is.

Time will tell.

Stokes would be a program maker. With McRae and Stokes on the same team, Tenn. could be back in the hunt in 2013.
