Max Bielfeldt article

Bradley keeps thing pretty secretive, but I have heard they like him and have been in contact. I haven't found any mention of any scholarship offers other than those listed in the above article- Ball State, Western Michigan, and Wright State.

Most schools recruiting him are following his progress as a post player, and waiting to see how big he gets.
 
He is definitely a D1 talent, and he keeps getting better. Max has had his best games against some of the most highly touted big men in the country. I would love to see him at Bradley.

Thanks Da Coach. :) If you've seen him and think he could be a good fit then I say let's go get him. How does his style of play compare to Prosser? Or, who would you say his game most resembles? (and it doesn't have to be a BU player)
 
Max's game is similar to Lucas O'rear. He is primarily a low-post player, but he is developing his perimeter game, and it will get better.

He has a good enough shot from the perimeter. He can knock down the three fine. I am not sure how much he is working on ball handling, but he has a few fine guards at ND that can do that....I hear they have a very very good addition at ND....one of the best defensive guards in the area and can score from anywhere as well....
 
Max coming to Bradley would mean a whole heck of a lot when it comes to donations and financing...and he's a pretty good player too. ;)

I know the "old man's" background...... It would be neat and greatly beneficial to the BU program if the kid agreed to "walk-on".

that would make him a future "walk-on" like me. 8)


EDIT: I read article...

So is he done with the walk on at U of I thing? U of I in 2 years = NO FLOOR TIME WHATSOEVER. maybe that is swaying him away.

Who would that be? Or what school are they from?

not sold on him

not sold on him

he is about 6'7" tops...physical bruiser..does not elevate well but good IQ ..not sure he can play with his back to the basket in the valley and he would have to be a 4 at Bradley..prosser is much more athletic
 
Article said Willie was there to observe.. also quoted Max as saying he thinks he wants to go away for college...
 
speaking of Luke Harangody - two things that hurt his draft chances were the relative lack of athleticism, and his height...which was boasted over his college career to be 6-8, sometimes 6-9, and even rarely 6-10...

but when measured at the NBA predraft camp, he was precisely 6-6, and a little over 6-7 with shoes on...
http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/Luke-Harangody-5063/

His wingspan of 6-9.5 is way small...and is roughly what a lot of guards that are 6-3 and 6-4 have...
John Wall - who's just a little over 6-2, has a wingspan only 1/4 inch less than Harangody.

Harangody, btw, is doing fine in the summer leagues...

I have nothing against Max, never met Max, and I'm sure he's a great kid, but doesn't it seem like he's getting an inordinate amount of attention from the PJS? There's alot of great players around Peoria right now.
