Where's Ware?

As the saying goes...the ball is in your court Kevin.

The University of Tennessee has released Class of 2011 signee Kevin Ware from his National Letter of Intent, according to the Vols' compliance office.

Ware, a 6-foot-4 shooting guard from Rockdale County High School in Conyers, Ga., is ranked the No. 56 player in the nation by Rivals.com.

Ware, who requested his release after former UT coach Bruce Pearl was fired on March 21, sent the following messages from his Twitter account Thursday afternoon:

"i wanna thank Coach Martin and UT for releasing me, Im looking forward to the next couple of weeks and getting my recruiting process going.
