Hard for any player to pass up the allure of a Stanford education.

Maybe landing Artis will help with Anthony Bennett. The talent coming out of the Vegas area this year is top notch.

This was expected, but it's still disappointing. Allen was the perfect fit for Altman's system. I think he was probably waiting until he was admitted to Stanford. Stanford just got a pretty special player.

Agree 100%. Great school and they've been sending a lot of players to the pros lately. As much as I would have liked to see Allen pick Oregon, I think he made the right decision.

If Allen plans on living in Cali after basketball, a degree from Stanford goes a long way.

A degree from Stanford goes a long way anywhere, but even more so on the West Coast.
