Those really are great videos of 3 guys that we've all grown to love over the last 4 years, and as much time as we spend on Bradley Basketball, they've come to feel more like family than anything else. I'm really going to miss each and every one of them as they really are class acts and tremendous individuals by all accounts.
I speak with Dub about this regularly and we just feel extremely blessed that we can not only meet, but take time to talk to and get to know the players, coaches, and AD (albeit mostly on a cursory level). What fan of a Power 6 conference team can say the same?
We really are lucky to be BU fans, and having been there for the ride from BW's first year to where he's brought the program today has been pretty wild. We saw DLO grow through all 4 of his seasons here, watched Lundy become a starter in his senior season and take the team on his back to get us our first NCAA berth in an eon, and all the other kids we saw take this program from complete tear down to where we are today. These 3 kids are no different. They will part of our history and our memories and we were lucky to have this time to watch and enjoy their talent. Hopefully they can all go on to have successful pro careers somewhere, and I am especially rooting for Koch who coming from South Sudan has no doubt had some challenges that we can't understand having grown up and lived in the US our entire lives. All the videos were great, but his was especially moving to me, and I really do hope he thrives after leaving BU and I have no doubt he will.
Darrell, Nate, and Koch - their great character and amazing talent has gotten us to where our program is today. If someone would have told me our team would be this good at this time 6 years ago, I would have told them they were nuts. Thanks for being part of our family, boys, and you always will be!
