Bunch of homers with this NKU stuff. We all know Murray State is the best fit. Four NCAA tournament wins in the last 12 years and transitioning to the Missouri Valley. Best program in the Commonwealth.

Have they hired a new coach yet?

They've not. It just "officially" got posted yesterday. James Kane is the name that keeps getting floated around. He was the guy that discovered Ja Morant (while recruiting Tevin Brown: OVC leader in three point makes and has hired an agent) and has some solid experience. He is an assistant at Dayton, currently. But spent time under Steve Prohm at Iowa State and Murray State.

You had to see this coming. Kids want to play. 

Good luck wherever you land!

I came to say the same thing.  I hope NKU lands him.  

What’s the scoop on Allen, was he in over his head at UK?  I’ve been out of the loop, I thought he was going to follow the Grady path?

No clue. I just know where I’d love to see him for my own selfish reasons.  I saw on twitter that a high major school representative has reached out to him so I am truly intrigued to see where he lands.

Not making fun of anything. Funny how you keep pimping for your Murray crew.

Isn't he going to end up at U of L, along with the rest of UK's roster?   

Seriously, I think he'd fit in well at NKU.  It's close to home, he'll get to play and be in a position to be in the NCAA tourney.

That’d be cool. I think with some reps and confidence, DA could be a contributor. I was holding out hope it would come at UK. And to clarify from earlier, when I was saying “high major” I was talking a blue blood type program.  I think with the right fit he could succeed at a P5 school.

In certain programs he could do really well.  Hell, think about Wiltjer from UK to Gonzaga.  I think Allen is more athletic.

This is true.

PP92's belly is more athletic than Kyle Wiltjer.

Last I checked he was still playing over seas also.  Allen can succeed. Just about finding the right fit.  I wish it had been Kentucky but it just didn't pan out.

I think he is still playing.  I liked Wiltjer, but man, he was slow.

I think Dontaie can have a solid career if he makes the right choice.  I wish it was Kentucky too.

If he goes that route they may immediately become the favorite in their conference. They have some young talent already and Faulkner returning for a 5th year. Then he can hope for the "local" matchup that the tourney committee loves to set up with UK and maybe have a chance to prove to Cal he can play at that level. 

Id absolutely love to see him at NKU but I bet he goes bigger.

Xavier and Cincinnati have expressed interest.
