Even though this breaks my heart and I hope he ends up staying.. if he's going to go somewhere I'd atleast hope it's here. Kid is an absolute sniper who fell victim to a not great offensive scheme lead by a lot of ball control by one or two players. With a year to sit out and develop he could legitimately be an all-conference type guy.

And, with Kenya now on staff (the guy who recruited him to Nebraska) and him playing with Sid Wilson at Brewster, I bet the interest would be mutual. Kid had some games he absolutely tore it up, like against Creighton and Purdue.

A lot of connections here like you said. Depending on how the scholarship situation plays out, I'd love to have him too. He was the quintessential microwave at Brewster.

With his shooting I could see him becoming a beast under Hoiberg if Nebraska could actually land him.

Always wondered why we didn't show interest in high school. He'd be a fantastic addition.

Huskers landed him over KU. He’s had some tremendous games in the Scarlet and Cream. He would instantly be our most potent offensive threat from deep and a fantastic addition to the team.

That being said if its Hoiberg I think there’s a chance Allen could be talked into staying. He’ll be the primary offensive threat next season as the team loses Palmer, Copeland, Watson, and probably Roby.

I mentioned this as a possibility when we landed Hunter. My understanding is that they are very close. I am totally on board with this, Allen is a lethal shooter.

Since Nebraska just got rid of their coach, wasn't their a rule passed that players could transfer when that happens and not have to sit out? Or did I just make that up? lol

Mainly huskerhoopscentral, but sometimes i do on huskerboard
I used to be on HHC but haven’t posted there in forever. They do a fantastic job of Nebraska hoops, the best I’ve seen online really. I’m a mod now on HB but SeaofRed92 is my name on both

How do you play 900 minutes and take 29 free throws?

Kid likes the number 29. He has 29 free throws, 29 steals and 29 turnovers.

Not really seeing what others seem to be seeing here.

He thanks Hunter but not Miles? That in itself is a swipe. Not a fan of that type of stuff.
