| Stokes hangs out with Memphis Teen Battling Cancer
VolNation,
Trey Erwin, the 15 year-old Collierville High School football player who was diagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer, received special visitors yesterday. Jarnell Stokes and Collierville Alderman Tony Sarwar visited & prayed with Trey and his family yesterday afternoon. While Jarnell was there, Coach Martin called Trey to talk to him about his battle with cancer. I will attach the picture of Trey and Jarnell below. #PrayforTrey 
Help us raise money for Trey and St. Jude http://www.tailgate4thecure.org

| Thats awful. My prayers go out to him and his family.
It speaks a lot to Jarnell's character. Most 18yr olds thoughts are not on the needy. Way to rep the school and state of TN! | |

Way to go Jarnell.

| Unfair of what the kid Was dealt. Must of been cool for such a local amateur star to take interest in him. Stokes and Martin are good character men. | |

| Coach Martin continues to impress me with his faith and character. We hear so much about the negatives in the AD, but I am very proud to have he and Jarnell Stokes representing the University of Tennessee.
What an awful thing for a 15 y.o. to have to go through, but thankfully his faith is strong. | |

| Damn, kid looks good to have pancreatic cancer, let alone stage 4.
Prayers are about all that you can get at that point, because nothing outside of a miracle can help stage 4. Terrible for someone so young. | |

Terrible for someone so young. | My grandmother died from this disease....She looked the same as she always did up till the weekend she passed away. It's a horrible disease that only a miracle can fix....My prayers and thoughts are with this kid. Stokes and Martin continue to impress. |

| Wow, this is great to see. Everyone always wants to talk about the negative issues dealing with athletes. This is the type of attention the media should focus on. Stokes still a teen himself, being there with this young man showing him support is inspiring. I know there are other athletes that do this type of stuff too, but it is special when it is a VOL. The kid himself has to be very courageous knowing that his battle is almost impossible. My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family. | |

| Here is a funny picture of Jarnell's shoe that he signed for Trey next to Trey's shoe that is the same model shoe (except in white). That is one HUGE shoe!!
