On Tuesday, the latest twist in the Charles Bassey to Western Kentucky saga unfolded. Although I’m not so sure you could call it a “twist” as much as an inevitability.
That’s because in what has been expected for a long time, Western Kentucky went ahead and hired Hennssy Auriantal, Bassey’s guardian, as an assistant coach. Understand that from the time that Bassey – a five-star player, ranked among the top high school prospects in the country – decided to reclassify and commit to Western – something like this felt inevitable. It wasn’t certain, but you could feel it coming.
