Top point guard recruit John Wall has told Kentucky coach John Calipari that he wil
l sign with the Wildcats, according to multiple sources, ending a highly publicized courtship with the game-changing player.
Wall, ranked the No. 1 point guard, No. 5 overall, on the ESPNU 100, informed Miami coach Frank Haith Tuesday morning that he had committed to Kentucky. The reasoning, according to a source, was because he just wanted to play for Calipari.
If Calipari had stayed as coach at Memphis, there would have been no drama in Wall's commitment. Privately, Calipari was convinced Wall would have chosen the Tigers, but the coach's departure to Kentucky created a soap opera in the renewed recruiting chase.
Wall teased Duke, and actually gave Miami an informal commitment last week, according to a source close to the situation.
