Clarke says he’s discussed the option with his family. “Going to 2020 there are a lot of pros like working out at college and advanced training and stuff like that,” he said. “Staying in high school, I’d do a lot of high school things. So there’s definitely pros and cons to it. We went over everything.” Clarke, who is ranked the No. 1 shooting guard by 247 in 2021, remains fairly open in his recruitment, with Kentucky, Duke, Memphis, UConn, Indiana and Louisville among the schools watching him. He spoke very highly of Memphis because they see him as a wing and not a guard. He broke down several schools: Duke: “Oh yeah, we talk a lot. Mainly with [assistant coach Jon] Scheyer. I talk to him about all types of things. A lot of the coaches talk to me about off-the-court stuff, trying to build my mindset. “One of the main things for me, [with] all schools is just how I’m going to fit into their system. He’s been talking to me about that.” He added: “The main thing that they say is that I can fit into the R.J. Barrett role and just be a ball-dominant play-maker. For me, that’s one of the main things I want to be. I want to have the ball in my hands here and there and make plays for other people and also for myself.” He spoke to Coach K on June 15 and hoped an offer might come after Peach Jam. “Coach K has made it known that he wants to see my game and break down the decision then and then we’ll go from there,” he said. Indiana: “Every single time I talk about Indiana I talk about their strength and conditioning. One of their main things is they can get me stronger and that’s one of the things I think will benefit my game a lot.” Louisville: “Louisville, they always talking to me about stuff off the court more than on the court. I really haven’t heard from them a lot.”2021 wing @terrenceclarke_ says it’s ‘possible’ he could reclass to 2020.

Memphis: “Me and [assistant coach] Mike [Miller] talk almost every day. Me and Penny, we talk a lot. He kind of helps me [with] mindset. He was a 6-7 point guard like I’m trying to be, trying to give me tips on that type of stuff.” He added: “They want to see me as a guard. Penny wants to see me in the NBA and I think he wants to give me a lot of teaching moments on the court and off the court, too. So I think with Memphis, the main thing is how I fit into the system as a guard and that’s really what I want to be. I think that’s one of the main things. “I think they think I can 1, 2 or 3 and Penny thinks I can be a guard as much as I do. Everybody kind of labels me as a wing, he thinks that I can be a guard. After the first session, he just told me to work on my handles and everything like that. I just want to work on my game plan and step up and make plays. “Every school hasJonathan Kuminga vs Terrence Clarke!
