For the fourth time in eight days, a recruit of national acclaim has elected to play for John Calipari at Kentucky.
Marquis Teague (Indianapolis), the nation's No. 4 junior, became the latest wunderkind turned Wildcat when he announced his commitment on Thursday. The playmaking point guard picked Kentucky over a list of suitors that included Louisville, Indiana, Cincinnati and Purdue.
Teague, of Pike High in Indianapolis, cited the player-friendly system Calipari employs as a major reason for his decision.
"[Calipari] is going to allow you to play your game," Teague said. "He's going to let you make plays. He's a winning coach and he's got the background to prove it."
