Had everything gone to plan, Eleanor Roosevelt High School graduate Darnell Dodson would be in the midst of a college basketball career at the University of Pittsburgh. The college basketball career has happened, but Dodson’s journey has taken a different path, ending not with Pittsburgh, but with one of the nation’s most hallowed programs at the University of Kentucky.
