Top recruit chooses Washington over Kansas

Monday, May 3, 2010

Terrence Jones, a 6-foot-8 power forward from Portland, Oregon and Rivals.com’s No. 13 ranked recruit in the class of 2010, orally committed to the University of Washington Friday afternoon. He chose the Huskies over Kansas, Kentucky, UCLA, Oklahoma and Oregon.

Jones came to Lawrence on April 25 for a two-day recruiting visit.

Barring any late additions, Kansas’ 2010 recruiting class will likely consist of No. 1 ranked recruit Josh Selby and the No. 120 recruit Royce Woolridge.

The Seattle Times reported Jones did not sign his letter of intent at the conference and called Kentucky coach John Calipari after his announcement. Washington can’t comment on Jones until the letter of intent is signed.
