UK Rivals site talked to Jermaine. Again he is going to decide next spring.
"Cutting my list to just seven was a stressful process," Lawrence told Cats Illustrated. "There's no real way to know that a college is 100 percent the right fit for you, and it's such an important decision in determining your future, so it really stressed me out at several times.
"At the end of the day I think that those seven schools give me the best chance to be successful and lead me towards the future that I have envisioned for myself."
Via Twitter, Lawrence named Kentucky, UCLA, Kansas, St. Johns, Cincinnati, Syracuse and UNLV as his seven finalists while also mentioning that all seven schools stood on level ground in his mind.
"The schools that I'm still interested in are saying that they're recruiting me as a small forward," said Lawrence, "I think that the three is my best position but I understand if they put me down low as well.
"I'm tall, I'm long I do a lot of things on the floor so I can play either spot. I'd rather be on the court then on the bench complaining about a position."
Lawrence's seven finalists don't have much in common. There are west coast schools, east coast schools, programs from the south and even one team that does not play in a traditional "big six" conference.
With his final decision being held off into the spring, Lawrence is still trying to decide exactly what he is looking for in a school.
"Mainly, I want to be comfortable with the coaching staff," Lawrence said, "I know that I want to play in an up-tempo style because that fits my game and I'd love to play in a historically intense home environment."
