Not according to HIS own blog on twitter yesterday. Sounds like he is very undecided right now.

He's been a heavy UTK lean for a while now. Penny has made him a priority late. But all indications are Penny is gaining traction. Should go down to the wire.

As he said in his own blog, he is considering TN because he can make immediate impact there. Meaning more playing time. It’s coming down to whether he wants to play with a national championship contender or play 35 mpg.

Let’s be honest here. Both are trending towards being top 20 programs with a shot to win it. At TN, the path to star minutes is faster

Obviously no matter how good TN is, they stand a 0% chance of winning an Elite 8.

RE: Five-star Jaden Springer cancels two visits - still visiting Memphis
UT has a coach in his 60's , who just tried to bolt to UCLA. Barnes won't be in Knoxville much longer . On the other hand , CPH will be at Memphis for an extended period. Memphis is a much more stable program.

Also , if Springer wants to play at the next level , he needs to sign with Memphis. How can you make an NBA team , if you cannot earn significant minutes at Memphis ? Go where the competition is if you want to get better.

Cal had a group that won the National championship that sacrificed minutes for the team playing just 7 guys. AD had 32 MPG to lead team. We have to do even better because we will play 8-9 guys in crunch time.

Tournament- maybe 7-8 get double digit minutes after first two games.

TN lost their 3-4 top scorers I believe- only blue bloods are usually able to reload and be ranked the next season. A lot of writers have them top 5 in SEC. I don’t see it.

I thought Kentucky had all those players cause of the nba holdout so those players that would have went pro couldn’t...Kentucky ended up with a loaded roster cause of it.

None of the upperclassmen were a sure fire lottery pick at the time so the answer to your comment is no.

I don't think UT will be top 25 this year. But, Barnes is a good coach. He will have the competitive. With the class they have coming in the following year, they will be top 25.

UT moving to Nike is paying dividends apparently. They haven't recruited this good since Pearl's apex.

I'll be surprised ... shocked even ... albeit pleasantly, if he doesn't pick UT.

We will see if Barnes is a good coach of top 25 talent. He had the good two seasons at UTK with unranked, hard-working, "coachable" guys. Barnes history with 5-stars is less heralded. In fact, isn't that what got him run-oft at the real UT?
