2016-17 NKU MEN’S BASKETBALL GAME NOTES

NOTESLAST GAME: NO. 2 KENTUCKY

Northern Kentucky proved up to the task in its first-ever NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship. Cole Murray gave NKU its only lead of the game, 7-6, with a 3-pointer just over two minutes into the contest. UK pushed out in front, but an emphatic dunk from Lavone Holland II spurred a 9-0 run that brought NKU within two points, trailing 23-21 with 6:51 on the clock. UK retaliated with another run and took 38-24 advantage into intermission. Fol-lowing break, Kentucky pushed its margin to 18 before Carson Williams scored eight-straight for the Norse to pull within 12, 47-35. The game’s margin stayed just beyond single-digits before NKU made one final push in the game’s clos-ing minutes. Holland’s jumper cut the deficit to single-figures, 70-62, with two minutes remain-ing. Drew McDonald brought NKU within seven with 32-seconds left, but a 4-for-4 showing at the charity stripe by UK sealed the game for the Wildcats, 79-70. Northern Kentucky shot 47 per-cent in the second half, while holding Kentucky to just 39 percent.

Holland led all scorers in the game with 22 points. Williams dropped in 21 points behind 7-for-10 shooting from the floor and a perfect 7-for-7 showing at the line. He came one re-bound shy of a double-double after collecting nine caroms. McDonald also reach double-fig-ures, scoring 14 points to go with five rebounds.

POSTSEASON HISTORYThe Northern Kentucky University men’s basket-ball team added to a storied history in the post-season with its first appearance in the NCAA Di-vision I Championship. In their 46-year history, the Norse have now made the postseason 16 times, including 13 as an NCAA DII member and two in the NAIA, and holds an 18-17 all-time record. NKU secured consecutive runner-up finishes in the 1996 and 1997 NCAA Division II Championship.

RARE AIR IN NCAA DI TOURNEYNorthern Kentucky’s Horizon League Men’s Basketball Championship punched its ticket to the NCAA DI Tournament, making NKU only the seventh team ever to reach the tourney in its first year eligible and just the second since 1970. While UL Lafayette also reached the field as an at-large in 1972, its season was vacated and doesn’t count in official rankings.

ONE SHOT IS ALL IT TOOK... Cole Murray made more than 250 three-pointers in his career, and each of them helped Northern Kentucky lay the foundation for Divi-sion I success. But, the one shot he connected on that will go down in Norse record books as the biggest of all was not a field-goal attempt. He led a trio of seniors that committed to North-ern Kentucky University when the team was just beginning its journey into Division I status. The three seniors - which include Matt Rosenwin-kel and former-player-turned-student-assistant Dean Danos - committed to NKU knowing they would only have one shot to play in March Madness due to the NCAA’s rule that prohibits reclassifying institutions from postseason com-petition. Murray, Rosenwinkel and Danos con-nected on the one that mattered most, their shot at the Big Dance.

HOOPS HOTBEDOver the years, Duke, North Carolina and N.C. State have received plenty of publicity as the Research Triangle and their success as three of the programs that lie along Tobacco Road in North Carolina. However, the nation should take notice that the Greater Cincinnati area is lay-ing claim to its territory as a hoops hotbed. The nation is well aware that Xavier University and the University of Cincinnati lie just three miles apart, but just 10 miles south of those traditional basketball powers lies Northern Kentucky Uni-versity. All three teams made the 2017 NCAA tournament and reside within a round trip be-tween the schools that is just 23 miles in total. By comparison, the Duke, UNC and N.C. State round trip is 59 miles.

Further proof that the “Queen City” (Cincin-nati) is the King of college hoops lies in the fact that four coaches in the NCAA tournament played their prep career in the area: Northern Kentucky’s John Brannen (Newport Central Catholic HS), Xavier’s Chris Mack (St. Xavier HS), Cincinnati’s Mick Cronin (La Salle HS) and Win-throp’s Pat Kelsey (Elder HS).

HOMETOWN HEROESHead coach John Brannen grew up in Alexan-dria, Kentucky, which is seven miles away from Northern Kentucky’s Highland Heights, Ken-tucky, campus. Sophomore Drew McDonald was raised even closer in Cold Spring, Kentucky, which is a stone’s throw away at 1.6 miles. Also of note, both Brannen and McDonald attended the same high school, Newport Central Catho-lic, although nearly 25 years apart. In essense, the Brannen-McDonald duo lifted its hometown college team to the NCAA tournament in the first season eligible to do so.

MOTOR CITY MADNESS RECAPNorthern Kentucky put an exclamation point on its second-ever Horizon League Tournament, winning three-straight games to capture the championship and lay claim to the league’s au-tomatic berth to the Big Dance. Throughout the entirety of the tournament, which truly encapsu-

lated the championship’s “Motor City Madness” nickname, NKU was the only higher seed to win any game, as the high seed went a combined 3-6 in the tourney. The fourth-seeded Norse de-feated No. 5 Wright State, No. 9 Youngstown State and No. 10 Milwaukee to account for all three wins.

ALL-TOURNEY TEAMLavone Holland II was named Horizon League Tournament MVP and, he and Drew McDonald were members of the all-tourney team. Holland was sensational, averaging 18.7 points, 3.3 re-bounds and 5.1 assists per game. He opened with 16 points and nine assists versus Wright State and followed with 20 points in both the semifinal matchup with Youngstown State and the title game with Milwaukee. McDonald av-eraged 16 points and nine boards in the tour-ney. He had 26 points and nine rebounds in the semis and 14 points, 12 rebounds in the cham-pionship.

REGULAR-SEASON ACCOLADESAfter being just one of two teams in the Horizon League without a preseason honor bestowed to its players, Northern Kentucky made up for it with three postseason awards. Head coach John Brannen was named the coach of the year after leading NKU to a third-place (tied) finish and DI-era record 21 regular-season wins. Drew McDonald was named to both the All-Horizon League first and all-academic teams after pacing the Norse in scoring (16.4 ppg) and rebound-ing (7.7 rpg), while posting a 3.26 cumulative GPA in marketing. Carson Williams garnered all-freshman team honors following a campaign that saw him win a league-best four freshman of the week accolades, averaging 10.8 points and 5.9 rebounds per game.

OVERVIEW OF THE YEARIn just its fifth-year as a Division I program and first with NCAA Tournament eligibility, North-ern Kentucky posted its first 20-win season in the DI era and did so with just one senior (Cole Murray) who received significant minutes. The Norse defied the preseason prognostications that picked them as the seventh-best team in the Horizon League and earned a share of third-place with Green Bay before winning the Hori-zon League Championship. NKU’s 24-11 overall record, including 21-10 regular-season, was the second-best win total in the Horizon League, trailing perennial-power Oakland (25-9) and tying Valpo (24-9). Northern Kentucky’s DI-era program-record No. 85 RPI is the second-best in the league, trailing just Valpo (78).

TEAM WINDEXNorthern Kentucky established itself as an elite-rebounding team, winning the battle of the boards in 26 of its 35 games this year, includ-ing two contests against Power-5 opponents - Illinois (43-32) and West Virginia (39-34). NKU outrebounded teams by an average of 4.4 rpg, which was the 46th-best margin in the nation. Its 1,319 total rebounds are the 46th-most na-tionally. Drew McDonald, Carson Williams and Jeff Garrett combined for 17 double-figure re-bounding performances.

2016-17 NKU MEN’S BASKETBALL GAME NOTES

NOTESNKU’s strength in rebounding is even more im-pressive considering the team’s average height is approximately 6-foot-3. According to CBSS-ports.com, there are 37 teams whose average height is 6-3 or less. With 351 teams compet-ing nationally at the Division I level, there are at least 314 teams in men’s basketball taller than NKU.

ON THE REBOUNDNorthern Kentucky was a stout 21-5 when out-rebounding its opponents this season, but 3-6 when losing or tying its foe on the glass. Two of the wins when losing the battle came at home against Green Bay and UIC and the other came in the Horizon League Championship quarterfi-nals against Wright State.

OH, THE DIFFERENCE IN A YEARAfter finishing last year with a 9-21 record, Northern Kentucky nearly made a complete turnaround at 24-11. NKU went 5-13 in the Horizon League a year ago, but finished 12-6 and tied for third in the league standings. The 15-game turnaround in the win column is the third-best in the nation, trailing Minnesota’s and UCLA’s plus-16. The NCAA includes both wins and losses in its most-improved analysis and NKU’s plus-12.5 is the fourth-best turnaround in the nation behind Minnesota, UCLA and UMBC.

The Norse also improved in scoring, increasing from 70.5 ppg last year to 76.0 ppg, and de-fense, improving from 74.4 ppg to 71.6 ppg.

ROAD TESTEDNorthern Kentucky played 21 games away from BB&T Arena, including 15 true road games and six at neutral sites. NKU posted a 12-9 mark in the games, which includes an 8-7 record in true road contests. The eight true road wins tied for the 36th-most in the country, while the 12 road/neutral site victories tied for the 28th-most.

STREAKINGNorthern Kentucky won six of its last seven-games, as well 10-of-12 and 12-of-15 to close the season. The victories came against Detroit Mercy, UIC (2x), Wright State (3x), Green Bay, Milwaukee (2x), Cleveland State, Valparaiso and Youngstown State. In fact, the Norse have only lost three times (12-3) in the last 54 days of the season.

HEADING TO THE POLLSFor the first time in the Division I era, Northern Kentucky earned a ranking in the mid-major polls. The Norse began receiving votes in the Dec. 12 CollegeInsider.com Mid-Major Top 25 Poll, and then catapulted into the rankings on Dec. 19 at No. 24 with 89 points. After also spending a week at No. 25, Northern Kentucky went back among those receiving votes and stayed before dropping out Jan. 9. However, on Feb. 27 NKU moved back into the receiving votes category and stayed there until the end of the season, when they jumped all the way up to a program-best No. 21 in the final poll. The Norse also received votes in the Mid-Major Madness Power Rankings on Dec. 20, but dropped out after one week. The Norse achieved a program-best No. 85 in the final RPI release of the year.

20-20 VISIONNKU has had a player record 20 or more points 30 times this season, which includes seven games where at least two players reached the plateau. Drew McDonald and Lavone Holland II teamed up three times (Miami (Ohio), NC Cen-tral and Youngstown State) to eclipse 20 points in the same game. McDonald also paired with Carson Williams (Brescia), Holland and Williams (No. 2-seed Kentucky, First Round NCAA Tour-nament), Holland and Mason Faulkner (Detroit Mercy) and Holland with Cole Murray (at De-troit Mercy) to achieve the feat the other four instances. Northern Kentucky went 19-4 when a player reaches at least 20 points in the scoring column.

70’S AND SUNNYBright skies were aplenty for the Norse when they posted at least 70 points in a game. NKU amassed a stout 20-5 record when eclipsing the 70-point plateau in a game. Conversely, the skies weren’t so sunny for NKU’s opponents when they failed to reach the mark. On the de-fensive end, the Norse went 14-2 when holding opponents to 70 points or fewer.

ODDS AND ENDS• NKU secured its 15th 20-win season in

the 46-year history of the program. The 24 wins tied for the seventh-most all-time for the Norse. It also matched the 2008-09 and 2006-07 editions with the most vic-

tories since winning 25 games during the 2002-03 season.

• The 24-win season is the first 20-win cam-paign of the Division I era and first since going 23-7 in 2011-12, the last campaign of the Division II era.

• Drew McDonald’s 268 rebounds this year are the 4th-best single-season total in school history and most since Cliff Clinton pulled down 282 in NKU’s DII national run-ner-up campaign in 1996-97. McDonald’s 573 points are the 5th most in a single-season at NKU.

• Cole Murray’s 101 made threes rank as the fifth-highest single-season mark in pro-gram history, while his 253 attempts are the second-most.

• Lavone Holland II had 143 assists this year, the 8th-best single-season total at NKU.

YOUTHFUL EXUBERANCEAccording to KenPom.com, Northern Kentucky had one of the youngest teams in the nation. NKU’s experience rating this season is currently 1.30 years, which is 291st in the nation. The rat-ing takes into account how much playing time each person on the team receives and combines that with the number of years played collegiate-ly.

Northern Kentucky’s roster featured seven new faces, including five freshman, a sophomore and one junior, and eight players making their Division I collegiate debut this year. Carson Williams, Kentucky’s reigning Mr. Basketball, headlined a recruiting class that was called “one of the best mid-major classes in the country for the class of 2016” by Next Up Recruits. The in-coming class also included Jalen Tate, Mason Faulkner, Dantez Walton and Tre Cobbs. NKU also added Brandon Maxwell, son of two-time

DOUBLING DOWNNorthern Kentucky registered 16 double-dou-bles.

MCDOUBLE-DOUBLESophomore Drew McDonald tallied 11 double-doubles on the year. He now has 16 for his ca-reer. McDonald is averaging one double-double every 4.1 games. However, after registering zero double-doubles in his first 11 collegiate games, he has registered 16 in the last 54 outings, which is one in every 3.4 games.

MCDONALD’S MID-MAJOR MAD-NESS

Andrew Evans of MidmajorMadness.com listed Drew McDonald as a player to watch in the Horizon League last year. According to Evans, McDonald was flying under the radar.

Evans wrote, “during conference play in his de-but season with the Norse, McDonald finished as one of only five players in the league to be used in more than 28 percent of his team’s pos-sessions while he was on the court, according to KenPom. Of those five, he finished second in offensive rating, trailing only league player of the year Kay Felder. He was also among the league leaders in both defensive and offensive rebounding percentage.”

McDonald averaged a team-best 16.4 points and 7.7 rebounds per game. He has 887 career points and ranks 36th all-time at NKU.

LAVONE HOLLAND’S OPUSJunior guard Lavone Holland II is an artist on the court. He earned Tarkett Classic All-Tourna-ment Team honors after averaging 15.3 points and 5.0 assists, which included a career-high 25 points to go along with five assists in the tourna-ment finale against Miami (Ohio). In NKU’s game against Eastern Illinois, Holland registered a ca-reer-high 28 points thanks to 6-for-10 shooting from 3-point land. That effort helped him land Horizon League Player of the Week honors.

The Louisville, Kentucky, native was named the Horizon League Championship MVP and earned all-tourney honors after leading NKU to the championship with a 16-point, nine-assist effort in the opener and followed with back-to-back 20-point showings in the semifinals and finals.

Holland was absolutely sensational over NKU’s final seven games. The junior guard averaged 19.0 points and 5.6 assists per game, while shooting 48.5 percent (47-of-97) from the field and 40.0 percent (14-of-35) from three.

Holland finished second on the team in scoring (14.5 ppg) and his 4.1 assists per game average leads NKU. Holland now has 808 career points, which ranks 43rd all-time for the Norse.

MURRAY DIALING LONG DIS-TANCE

During his junior year, guard Cole Murray fin-ished the season ninth in the nation in 3-point field-goal percentage, making 45.3 percent (78-of-172) attempts. Murray found himself back in the national rankings again this season, finishing 44th at 39.9 percent (101-of-253) with 101 made threes, the 26th-best total in the nation. Murray was fourth on the team in scoring at 10.1 ppg.

CARSON MOTORING When NKU signed Carson Williams last fall, head coach John Brannen said that Norse fans “are going to enjoy watching him.” If the start of his career is any indication, that statement will hold true. Williams was named the Horizon League Freshman of the Week on four separate occasions, more than any other freshman in the league.

Williams reached double-digits 22 times, includ-ing a scintillating 21-point, nine-rebound effort against No. 2-seed Kentucky in the NCAA Tour-nament. He also had four double-doubles and was third on the team in scoring (10.8 ppg) and second in rebounding (5.9 rpg).

MASON’S MOJOMason Faulkner found his groove during the Horizon League portion of the schedule. The freshman guard reached double-figures in scor-ing in nine of the last 21 games, including two outbursts over 20 points. He posted 10 points in the game at Oakland and went off for a then-career-high 24 points thanks to 9-of-15 shoot-ing against Youngstown State. He added 16 in NKU’s win over Cleveland State and was named the Horizon League Freshman of the Week. In NKU’s game against Detroit Mercy in BB&T Are-na, the freshman exploded for 29 points behind 8-of-12 shooting from the floor and 11-of-14 from the charity stripe. He added 19 in the win at UIC and 16 in the loss to YSU. Faulkner to-taled just 30 points in NKU’s 13-game non-con-ference schedule. However, he scored 213 after the start of Horizon League play (22 games). Faulkner averaged 7.4 ppg on the year.

DIVISION I ACTIVE STATUSThis marked the first season Northern Kentucky is eligible to compete in NCAA sponsored post-season events. In each of the past four seasons, NKU was considered a reclassifying institution while making the transition to Division I from

Division II. The process reached its conclusion in August 2016 when the NCAA granted the Norse active Division I status, which opened the door for NKU to earn a berth into the NCAA Championship. During the reclassification pro-cess, NKU was ineligible for postseason compe-tition in events sponsored by the NCAA and the Norse weren’t included in any official statistical rankings.

WHO ARE THE NORSE?As one of just two athletics programs across any division in any collegiate association in the country bearing the nickname Norse, North-ern Kentucky boasts one of the most unique nicknames in college athletics. So, who are the Norse? The Norse were the people who occu-pied the Northern Scandinavian region between the 8th and 11th centuries. Today, Norse are fre-quently confused with Vikings, a term used in the Middle Ages to refer to the profession of raiding and pillaging practiced by some, but not all, Norse. NKU selected the nickname shortly after beginning collegiate athletics in 1971. It was selected in a campus-wide vote because NKU is located at the highest point in Northern Kentucky. The term Norse is both singular and plural and can be used as either an adjective or noun.

HORIZON LEAGUE PRESEASONNorthern Kentucky was tabbed seventh in the Horizon League preseason poll by League coaches, sports information directors and me-dia members. NKU defied the prognostications and finished in a third-place tie. This marked the second year in a row the Norse exceeded expectations. Last year, Northern Kentucky was picked 10th as first-year members of the Hori-zon League and a team that was still navigat-ing its transition to Division I status. But, NKU finished eighth.

CollegeInsider.com’s Andrew Evans picked the Norse to finish seventh in the Horizon League this season, but adjusted his prognosis on the team. In his one-month update of the league rankings, he moved the Norse all the way up to third behind Valpo and Oakland.

NORSE MADNESS EN ROUTE TO MOTOR CITY

With 12 League victories, Northern Kentucky more than doubled its Horizon League win total from last season (5). After playing seven of its first 11 games on the road, NKU closed the year with five of seven at home, going 6-1 down the final stretch of the regular-season. The Norse tied Green Bay in third and secured the No. 4 seed in the Horizon League Tournament by vir-tue of the tie-break.

COMMUNITY SERVICENorse Athletics takes great pride in giving back to the Northern Kentucky/Greater Cincinnati community and the men’s basketball team is extremely active in those efforts. Last season, men’s basketball players combined to spend nearly 200 hours serving the community. The Norse have already volunteered at six local el-ementary schools and the Northern Kentucky Youth Development Center this fall, as well as participated in the Bengals’ Recess in the

Stadium. While in Detroit to start the Horizon League campaign, NKU went to the Salvation Army, where it helped cook food and prepare meals for serveral thousand homeless in the Mo-tor City.

NORSE SIGNINGSigning day turned out to be a big deal for John Brannen and the Norse in more ways than one. John Brannen and Co. landed a 3-star recruit in 7-0 center Chris Vogt (Graves County HS/Maysville, Ky.), marking the fourth 3-star recruit in the last two years. Vogt is an elite shot-block-

er who swatted a KHSAA single-season record 190 blocks as a junior, which included a state-record-tying 17 blocks in one game alone. As a junior, he averaged 17 points, 9.7 rebounds and 5.8 blocks per outing. Vogt was recently se-lected to participate on Team Kentucky in the Kentucky vs. Ohio All-Star Game set for April 8 at Thomas More College in Crestview Hills, Ky.

2016-17 NKU MEN’S BASKETBALL GAME NOTES

John Brannen was announced as Northern Kentucky University’s fifth men’s basketball head coach in program history by Director of Athletics Ken Bothof on April 6, 2015.

Brannen was named 2017 Horizon League Coach of the Year after guiding the Norse to a 21-10 regular-season record, including a 12-6 mark in league play that led to the Norse tying for third-place in the standings. He helped NKU to the program’s first Horizon League Tournament championship and subsequent berth into the NCAA Division I Championship. Northern Kentucky’s appearance in the NCAA tournament was rare air, as NKU became just the seventh program ever and just the second since 1970 to reach the tourney in its first season eligible.

In his first season at the helm of NKU’s program, Brannen saw the team to a 9-21 record, including a 5-13 mark in North-ern Kentucky’s inaugural season in the Horizon League, one of the best mid-major basketball conference in the country. The Norse exceeded the preseason prognostications by finishing two spots higher than their preseason ranking.

Brannen’s 2016-17 recruiting class was dubbed “one of the best mid-major classes in the country for the class of 2016” by Next Up Recruits. The class includes Kentucky’s Mr. Basketball Carson Williams and finalist Mason Faulkner, as well as Ohio’s Division III AP Player of the Year Dantez Walton. Williams and Faulkner teamed up for the Ohio-Kentucky all-star game, where they faced off against fellow signee Jalen Tate. NKU’s fifth signee Blake Spellman recently won the DiRenna Award, which is presented by the Greater Kansas City Basketball Coaches Association to the top player in the Kansas City area. The Norse also added Tre Cobbs, who won two Ohio state championships as a teammate with Walton, and Brandon Maxwell, son of two-time NBA Champion Vernon Maxwell.

Brannen came to Highland Heights, Kentucky, after spending six seasons on the Alabama coaching staff for Anthony Grant, including time as interim head coach during the Crimson Tide’s 2015 NIT second-round appearance and two seasons as associate head coach. He spent the first four seasons as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator. He

served in the same role on Grant’s staff at VCU and was a part of Grant’s staff for a total of eight seasons. Brannen was an integral part of lifting the Crimson Tide to three 20-win seasons from 2011-13 and three postseason appearances during his six campaigns in Tus-caloosa, Alabama. During the 2012-13 season, Brannen helped Alabama to a 23-13 overall record (12-6 SEC) as the squad reached the quarterfinals of the NIT and finished second in the SEC. It marked the third-consecutive season the Tide reached the postseason. In 2012, Brannen assisted in directing the Crimson Tide to the NCAA Tournament, the program’s first NCAA appearance since the 2006 season. Alabama finished with a 21-12 mark and won the 2012 SEC West Division title. In Brannen’s second season at Alabama, he helped guide the Tide to a 25-12 record, an appearance in the NIT championship game and an SEC Western Division crown. His efforts in recruiting have also drawn national acclaim, as he helped the Tide land the nation’s No. 5 recruiting class in 2011 and the No. 21-ranked recruiting class in 2014. In addition to his recruiting duties, Brannen focused on player development, scouting and game preparation. He worked particularly close with the Crimson Tide perimeter players. During his time at VCU (2007-09), Brannen helped coach the Rams to three-straight conference titles and postseason appearances, including two NCAA Tournaments. At VCU, he continued to develop his reputation as one of the nation’s premier recruiters in landing a 2007 recruiting class that was ranked in the top 20 nationally. Bran-nen followed that up with a 2008 class that was ranked third among mid-major programs by Rivals.com and a 2009 class that was ranked fifth. His 2008 class went on to comprise the starting five of VCU’s memorable Final Four run in 2011. In addition to recruiting the Rams’ championship teams, Brannen helped coach the program to a 76-25 record in his three seasons, with 12 players earning All-Colonial Athletic Association honors including two-time CAA Player of the Year Eric Maynor. Brannen joined Grant at VCU after spending three seasons in the same capacity at St. Bonaventure, where he was the architect of the program’s recruiting plan to help rebuild the Bonnies’ program. In his first recruiting season, Brannen helped add six student-athletes to the rapidly growing St. Bonaventure program. Since 2006, Brannen has been a member of the prestigious Villa 7 consortium, which connects the country’s elite assistant basketball coaches in an effort to prepare the next generation of college basketball leaders.

Before his stint at St. Bonaventure, Brannen was the top assistant at Eastern Kentucky for three seasons. He spent the 1999-2000 season at the College of Charleston, helping coach the squad to a 28-4 record. A 1997 graduate of Marshall University with a degree in business management, Brannen played at Marshall when Grant was an assistant for the Herd. A standout on both the court and in the class-room, he was a Rhodes Scholar finalist and received postgraduate scholarships from both the NCAA and Southern Conference. Bran-nen led the Southern Conference in scoring his senior season (1996-97) by averaging 20.9 points per game and was named the league tournament MVP. He began his collegiate career at Morehead State before transferring to Mar-shall, where he scored 1,008 points in only two seasons. Fol-lowing graduation from Marshall, Brannen played two seasons pro-fessionally in Belgium’s First Divi-sion, earning all-star honors and serving as a player-coach. Originally hailing from nearby Alexandria, Kentucky, Brannen is married to the former Lisa Els-wick. The couple is parents of twin daughters Jaylee and Katelyn.
