Dontaie Allen came virtually out of nowhere this summer to land in the top 100 of 2019 recruits.
The Pendleton County star turned heads with his AAU circuit play and caught the eye of Kentucky coach John Calipari. After Calipari extended a scholarship offer, Allen accepted on the spot.
Allen is the first in-state player to sign with Kentucky since Dominique Hawkins and Derek Willis. Allen has proven that he can compete at the highest level, and his 6-6 frame gives him a lot of tools to work with.
However, his senior season of high school was cut short by a knee injury in December.
