Tennessee adds guard Mostella to recruiting class

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Tennessee coach Donnie Tyndall has continued rebuilding the Volunteers’ recruiting class by adding guard Detrick Mostella.

The 247Sports Composite, which measures rankings of all the major recruiting services, ranks the 6-foot-3 guard from Decatur, Alabama, as the nation’s No. 85 prospect in the 2014 class. His signing was announced Thursday in a university release.

Mostella initially signed with Oklahoma State in November 2012 before being granted a release. He spent the 2013-14 school year at Notre Dame Preparatory School in Fitchburg, Massachusetts. Mostella will arrive at Tennessee with four years of eligibility.

Mostella joins a recruiting class that already had added forward Jabari McGhee and junior-college guard Kevin Punter in the last week. All four players who signed with Tennessee in November were granted releases after Tennessee’s coaching change.
