I never had any doubt he wouldn't. Good for him.

Jake leads SH in both scoring (17.2) and rebounding (6.5).

Spent a few minutes with him while he was in town. Likes the school and team a lot.

Looks like Jake is transferring to Bellarmine. I've had a few people tell me that. I've checked with a b-ball guy who says it's true so I guess it's true.

Glad for Jake. Great school. Close to home. Great basketball.

I like good things to happen to good kids.

Any idea why? Will he have to sit out?

I assume he will have to sit a year.

Can someone answer this question?

Pure speculation but I'd say two factors: Proximity to NKY and level of play.

Jake is following the Covington Catholic to Bellarmine path of fellow low post man - Dave Rechtin. Best of luck to Jake.

Best of luck to Jake. It's a big jump from NAIA to the GLVC. Going to be some tough competition for playing time as Bellarmine signed a very good 6'8" post player from St Louis and another post player from Wright State transferring in with 4 years of eligibility.
