I love watching this kid play, and so will the NKU fans. He is the epitome of a point guard. Congratulations to this young man and I look forward to watching him lead the very entertaining Elliott County team again this season.

Way to go "E" not to far for us to come to a few games. See you soon!:banana::banana:

CONGRATS ET FALK--100 MILE DRIVE SO I CAN SEE YOU LEADING THE POINT IN THE NEW BANK OF KENTUCKY CENTER!!!!

Awesome as I can drive ten minutes to see a kid I have read about for four years but have never seen play.

This is a huge pickup for NKU, IMO.

No doubt the toughest point gaurd in the state this season........Congratulations Ethan!!!!!

Way to go Eef :thumb:

 

You and Evan have been a delight to watch and get to know over the years.

 

I have no doubt that you guys will continue to squeeze everything you can out of every day God blesses you to draw a breath, and will add a lot of lives of those around you.

 

I'm proud of you boys.

 

I wish you nothing but the best. :thumb:

That's a great sign by NKU. He gives name recognition and his skills are perfect for the NKU style of play.

Congrats to Faulkner and NKU

Congrats

I have known the twins since they were babies. They have worked so hard for this and are well deserving. Congrats to both. Hard work does pay off.

Congrats Ethan and best wishes. NKU is getting an awesome talent and individual.

I believe they'll be D1 before his time there is through.

 

I agree. Congrats Ethan.:dancingpa

 

To answer tese statements, I am going to say not a chance. NKU will not be going Division I before his time is up here.

 

You may ask why do I say that, I'll tell you that the NCAA has placed a moritorium on anyone moving to the Division I level due to some schools who have no business of being there...and I mean absolutely no business of being there. The moritorium ends in three seasons.

 

You may say that would be during his time but the kicker here is the fact that once a school decided to "go DI" you have to have an exploratory season then four years of transition.

 

BUT the previous paragraph is basically a mute point since the NCAA is more than likely going to cap the number of schools that are in DI and they are likely to contract some schools/conference to DII or lower meaning that some schools/conference that are currently DI could be DII or DIII when all is said and done.

 

So with all of this being said, I don't see how anyone can think that NKU will be going Division I anytime soon.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As far as Ethan Faulkner deciding to come to NKU, it would have been mice to get both Faulkners but one is better than none. He sounds like a really good player and young man. We (the NKU athletics department) can't write a release about him until we get his paperwork. I will post it as soon as it becomes available.

NKU got a steal.

NKU got a steal.

 

They also got the MVP of the 16th, IMO. If I was gonna start a team, it begins with Ethan Faulkner. Congrats to NKU and Ethan.

NKU will not be going D-1 anytime soon. I was in the Sports Business program at NKU when the research for the D-1 move was being done. Final conclussion by 2005 was that NKU had zero plans on moving to D-1 even if the new Arena was constructed.
