Mason Faulkner has been released from NKU

[DukeDog]

Per Brannen. First Williams, now this.

[UKMustangFan]

Dang. Not ideal, but I trust in what Coach Brannen is doing.

[TAC]

Looks like that opens up a scholarship for him. Wonder if he has somebody on the line?

[plantmanky]

Might be one more leaving as well.

Crazy

Mason figured two Faulkners was one too many, so he's getting out of Dodge!

Might be one more leaving as well.

 

Maybe the big kid from Graves County?

[Voice of Reason]

Does these players leaving impact Brannen's resume for the next job?

[sportsmaniac]

I don’t think it will effect Brannen’s resume at all. I think this is just the world we live in now. 20 years ago it would have been a red flag not today!

[HoopJunkie]

Always skeptical when a kid is a big fish in a small pond. Faulkner went from shooting the ball 40 times a game in high school, to having to play PG in a controlled system. He had a good freshman season at NKU. Then there was a talent bump this year. It effected his playing time. He obviously didn’t like it. Mason had 15-20 D1 offers coming out of high school. He’ll have plenty of opportunities. Hopefully he finds a fit.

Could Ben weyer be coming to NKU?

Sorry if I'm late to the party but Carson Williams has left NKU, why are these guys leaving or are they being told to leave?

Could be a lot of things. In both Williams and Faulkner's cases I imagine neither were expecting to see their roles diminish as their careers went on. Fact is NKU has guys that are better fits for their system and what they're trying to do then both.

[CAP]

Faulkner and Williams left on their own correct?

Faulkner and Williams left on their own correct?

 

As far as I'm aware, yes.
