I assume all of that was before DR made his post below?

I also thought I read Freeman entered the portal with a "no contact" label. He has it down to a couple of schools and is just haggling. But we can dream!

If I win either the Mega Millions tonight, or the Powerball tomorrow...he will be at Bradley. Book it.

We're all rooting for you, DR!

I wonder if Bradley has even contacted Owen Freeman? Not every athlete will play just to the highest Bidder! Could Owen be that kind of player? I would sure contact him if I was a Bradley recruiter! He may like the smaller town of Peoria and may feel less pressure playing in Peoria!

It is being reported by a Des Moines radio station (KXNO) that Owen Freeman already has an NIL promise of $1.6 million from Michigan, and another for $800,000 from Arkansas.
I suspect that kind of money will prevent Bradley from having any chance.

There is a report that Iowa’s Owen Freeman is considering Bradley.....

another Iowa kid entering the portal would fit great in the MVC
Backup center Riley Mulvey- didn't get much playing time at Iowa but would be a big factor on any MVC team & has a lot of potential

I would love to see us increase our guard and wing size. That definitely helped Drake's defense.

Some additional new names...
D1 transfer portal- 6'8", 225 pound sophomore Gavin Walsh of Binghamton University (American East Conference). He is originally from Baltimore. He started all 31 games this season at Binghamton, and averaged 11.3 ppg and 10.9 rpg. He shot 41.9% overall, and 29.3% from three. He was voted 3rd team All-American east Conference.

D2 portal- 6'6", 210 pound grad-transfer Antonio Chandler of D2 Southern Connecticut State University. He averaged 17.2 ppg and 11.3 rpg, and he shot 63.6% from the floor. He was voted All-Notheast 10 first team. Because he spent last season at an NAIA school (University of Jamestown in North Dakota), the recent NCAA ruling gives him one additional season of eligibility.

>> https://x.com/AChandler_3 (he posts that he was 50% from three. He was 1-2)

D2 portal- 6'4" sophomore guard Kobi Williams at D2 Truman State University. He is originally from St. Louis. As a freshman in 2023-24, he was the GLVC Freshman of the Year (12.1 ppg, 3.6 rpg). As a sophomore in 2024-25, he averaged a team-leading 14.5 ppg, and a team-leading 5.2 rpg. He was 38.8% from three (54-139). He has 2 seasons of eligibility left.

Yes, Lyris Robinson is a Class of 2027 recruit. The 2026 was a typo in transcribing the names that Dave Eminian listed in his article yesterday.

[yoda]

It's possible that he may be trying to reclassify and become Class of 2026, but former BU great Jerome Robinson's
own social media says 2027, just finishing his sophomore year

Jerome Robinson's Facebook page says he is Class of 2027 - LINK

Is Robinson 2026 or 2027? Verbal Commits shows 2027.

Thanks....was hoping for some juco names or possible portal help...

Dave Eminian just posted an update on Bradley recruiting....at my limit on views tonight @ PJS, could someone post what players are mentioned in the article please?

I think he got the names from a recruiting site. They are names we have posted about in the past.

He said-
...2025 guards Exavier Wilson and Christian Williams and 2025 wing Timo George, ... are not believed to be in the mix anymore as it's very unlikely Bradley is still recruiting them, given its incoming 2025 class.

Then he listed these 4 recruit names, none of which are 2025 recruits-
Quinton Kitt- Class of 2027- 6’5” wing- East Peoria
Isaiah Wilks- Class of 2026- 5’9” point guard- Millwood High School (Oklahoma City)
Race Kowalcyk- Class of 2026- 6’7” small forward- St. John's Jesuit High School & Academy (Toledo)
Lyris Robinson- Class of 2026- 6’3” point guard- Canyon International Academy (Phoenix)
