According to the Louisville Courier-Journal’s recruiting expert Jody Demling, Kentucky head coach John Calipari give Shelby Valley point guard Elisha Justice a call Thursday evening.
Justice summarizing he and coach Calipari’s conversation:
[QUOTE=]”He said he had been watching my game films and he liked how I played,” Justice told The Courier-Journal. “I don’t know right now, he told me to talk it over with my family. But he said I was the type of player he was looking for.”[/QUOTE]
Coach Calipari also told Justice that he was “expecting to lose a lot of guys,” and noted there would likely be a scholarship for the point guard.
Justice said Calipari told him to call him back soon.
Justice on the Louisville walk-on commitment:
[QUOTE=]”I really like Louisville though,” Justice said. “I feel like that is the better fit for me, right now.”[/QUOTE]
You better bet that his family and friends at school will pressure him into going to UK if he is indeed offered a scholarship.
Also, for those of you that do not know, Elisha wants to coach college basketball in the future. That’s why he committed to walk-on at Louisville, because of how well coach Pitino has developed some of his players into coaches (i.e. John Pelphrey, Travis Ford, etc.)
