One of the most coveted basketball transfers in the market has announced he’s heading to Tennessee. Indiana State guard Tyreke Key made his public announcement on Twitter Saturday afternoon.
Key’s recruitment involved some major schools, including the likes of Texas Tech, Oklahoma, and Ole Miss. Tennessee always had one major advantage in their backpocket, however: Key is originally from Celina, Tennessee, not too far from Cookeville. The draw to be closer to home and to potentially start next season proved to be the winning factors for the Volunteers.
