Max Ekono leaves Bradley; 1 scholarship available

Max will transfer to Clarendon College, a junior college in Clarendon, Texas. They are a member of the Western Junior College Athletic Association, and are 10-2 so far this season.

Team stats-

It looks like they have a lot of guards this season, but most are sophomores and will be gone next season when Max resumes his career. And judging from the assist numbers of their guards, it looks like their point guards are all sophomores. So good luck to Max!

I was checking the Clarendon athletic website, under sports they offer, meat judging, livestock judging and ranch horse besides the more typical sports.
Max, your not in France or Peoria anymore.
 
Interesting quote from Coach Wardle in the online version of the PJ Star today-

Ekono's exit opens an interesting possibility for Bradley.
"He got a full ride to Clarendon, and now we have a scholarship available here," Bradley coach Brian Wardle said.
Will Bradley bring in a new player during this season?
"We're entertaining it, yes," Wardle said. "He'd have to be the right fit for us. We're looking for size and physicality."


That seems to confirm that they have already been pursuing a mid-year transfer per Fanatic's original rumor (which I confirmed through a separate source), or that question probably wouldn't have been asked, and his answer would not have been "We're working on it, yes".
 
Can anyone recall a mid season transfer being a major contributor to a team in recent years. Just seeing if there is any precedent for this. Why fill a spot knowing they would have to free it up next year to sign another recruit or transfer? This player would have to be difference maker you would think
