Root [Boost Mobile] Noob Question

I've got a Samsung Galaxy S3 SPH-L710T on Sprint network. I got this phone as my Nexus 5 was starting to give me fits after it took a bath in the sink. Anyway, I really like the stock android 4.4.4 Kit Kat and 5.0 Lollipop on the Nexus 5 and was wondering if there is a way to get either of those stock ROMs for this version of the Galaxy S3?

I previously rooted this phone with the guides you have here (which worked great so THANKS!) but I haven't found any ROMs that are just a stock version of Android. About the only thing from Samsung I'd like to keep is the visual voicemail app, but if I can just get to stock Android that would make my day. Is this even possible?

Thanks in advance,

Nick
 
If you have a custom recovery I would make a backup first before you do anything. Then use an app like titanium backup and get rid of all of the Samsung stuff that you don't want and not going to use.
