Tyran Stokes' commitment remains a big question

Notre Dame Sherman Oaks' Tyran Stokes remains undecided on his college commitment, but it appears Louisville and Kansas are leading the race. According to On3’s Recruitment Prediction Machine, Louisville holds a 42.7% chance of landing the top prospect, while Kansas trails closely at 37.3%. Kentucky is a distant third with just 1.0%.

Stokes has received over 20 offers from major programs, including Arizona State, LSU, Jackson State and Ole Miss. He has taken two official visits: one to Louisville on October 3 and another to Kansas on April 19. His visit to Kentucky was recently postponed.

With his senior year ahead, Stokes has a big decision to make.
