Jenkins says staying put was one of his best moves

"I didn't want to leave without doing my homework and looking at what coach Petrino had accomplished," Jenkins said. "When I talked to him, he was straightforward and said, 'I'm not going to give you recruit talk.' He gave me the numbers and said to talk to them because they're not going to lie. I called and there were a lot of things I liked."
