Hilarious how 10 years ago a comment like this on a fan board could have potentially launched an NCAA investigation! Feels like the wild west now in comparison!
I think DC needs to start paying high contributing posters on Bradleyfans to keep them on board...ya know - avoid transferring some devoted members to other fan portals?
Hey - it's the new landscape of college hoops - time to change with the times!

If we can sell Rienk on a return by convincing him we could be a 30 win team with him, I'd chip in a couple grand to help lock him in!
And look, I know it's a long shot, but a guy can dream big!

But I have to know, is he eligible to win Valley Newcomer of the Year?
I believe the definition of a player who qualifies for "Newcomer of the Year" is one who is in his first season of playing in the MVC.
Thus Zek would not qualify.
BW quote "We have to recruit a team, not talent." If he succeeds in doing this with the next couple of recruits (including a ready to play skilled 5 man) we are going to be a very very good team next season. Great nucleus already. Excited for what's to come.

Hopefully he can get about 30 min a game and drop 11-13 pt average for us. Would be a nice contribution to the team next year.
A big thanks to HOTBrave, and the NIL people. They worked hard to get a deal made that was satisfactory to Zek and to the coaching staff.
Again I will encourage every Bradley fan to help support the Home of the Brave NIL organization, without which Bradley would have lost a lot more players and would not have been able to land the transfers they have, or the transfers yet to come.
Please consider a donation to the HOTB collective. NIL groups can now accept donations from fans and organizations, and it is no longer against any NCAA rules.
No matter how big or small, every bit helps build a consistent winner at Bradley! Link to support the Bradley NIL - https://hotbrave.com/pages/donate-now
I also want to thank HotBrave. It is alot of work behind the scenes. I will be donating money to the NIL. Thanks Da Coach for putting that website on here

Not many programs can say they lost a portal player only to get him back! Getting ZEK back is huge with now more experience from the 2022-23 Championship team!
