Good for him. He just became one of the most popular guys in Kentucky, regardless of what he does for the team.

So thrilled for Brennan. A great young man on and off the court. He will be living his dream. Welcome to the family Brennan.

Congrats! Probably been a while since the 10th region supplied UK with two players.

Did he have any scholarship offers?

Did he have any scholarship offers?

 

Yes, he had some D-1 offers. He chose to walk on and live out his dream. Thrilled for him and his family. Proud GRC fan here.

Did he have any scholarship offers?

 

According to Ben Roberts' article, he had a "handful of sub-D1 offers" and had made unofficial visits to NKU, WKU, & Marshall. Could have easily gone the D-2 or NAIA route, but when Coach Justus offered, he accepted because it was always a dream.

 

Really happy for the young man. So cool having a pair of 10th Region guys on the roster.

Congrats! Probably been a while since the 10th region supplied UK with two players.

 

Maybe the first time?
