It is a script with which Kentucky Wildcats basketball fans have become all too familiar.
On Tuesday, Kenny Payne, the new Louisville men’s basketball coach and ex-Kentucky assistant, announced that he was hiring former Cardinals star Milt Wagner as U of L’s new director of player development and alumni relations.
Subsequently, momentum has built among the recruiting geeks that Milt Wagner’s grandson, prized Camden, N.J., guard DJ Wagner, will forsake his longtime, perceived recruiting leader, UK, to follow his grandfather to U of L.
