Dontaie Allen will be the first in-state basketball star to play at Kentucky since Dominique Hawkins and Derek Willis. Big Blue Nation is already prepared to love him, and every time he opens his mouth he says things that will only make fans love him more.
In a recent interview with PrepCircuit.com, the star from Pendleton County discussed what led him to become a top 100 recruit and what still drives him today.
It was not long before Kentucky came knocking at the door. Once John Calipari offered him a scholarship to play for the Wildcats, there was no doubt where Allen wanted to play college basketball.
