Anthony Davis, a 6-foot-10 forward from Chicago, committed to John Calipari and the Kentucky Wildcats on Friday, his father confirmed. Davis, who is rated the No. 5 player in the nation by the Scout.com recruiting service and No. 8 overall by Rivals.com, picked Kentucky over Ohio State, Syracuse and DePaul. Davis joins 6-6 forward Michael Gilchrist of Somderdale, N.J., and 6-2 point guard Marquis Teague of Indianapolis as top-10 prospects in the class of 2011 committed to play for Kentucky. "Coach Calipari is easy to talk to and he listens to what you are saying," Davis told ESPN recruiting writer Paul Biancardi on Friday in explaining his choice. "(Calipari) will be a father figure to me away from home. He's a demanding coach that will not tell me what I want to hear, but what I need to hear to improve." http://www.kansascity.com/2010/08/13/2148837/davis-becomes-kentuckys-third.html
