Stansbury announces signing of top JUCO player Sharp

Western Kentucky head coach Rick Stansbury announced Monday the signing of 7-foot-3 center Jamarion Sharp in the 2021 class.

Sharp, a Hopkinsville native, is entering his sophomore season at John Logan College in Carterville, Ill. He’s ranked a four-star recruit and the top junior-college player in the nation by 247Sports.

“We’re excited for Jamarion to be a part of our family,” WKU head coach Rick Stansbury said in a news release. “We offered Jamarion four years ago when he was a high school junior at Hopkinsville and wasn’t playing. We watched Coach Tim Haworth work him out at halftime, and we offered him that night.
