There are at least 2 important 2020 recruits visiting Bradley this weekend on official visits.
I have heard there may be more than 2, but these are the 2 we know about, and links to more information about them-

2020 recruit Kenneth Lofton, Jr.- We were the first to report Bradley's interest and of the Bradley offer to Kenneth Lofton, Jr., and we first reported he would be visiting Bradley-

Both of the above recruits, Jake Hutson and Kenneth Lofton, Jr. are here in Peoria, and are at the Bradley soccer match tonight. They appear to be getting along well with the Bradley players.
Bradley soccer is hosting Belmont in the first regular-season soccer match of the 2019 season. The team and the recruits are mixing with the other students and fans at Shea Stadium.

Also, a source reports that the recruits appear to be the height advertised.
Rienk Mast is showing no residual signs of having had the recent knee injury and surgery. His surgery was in early June, so it's been less than 3 months and he appears to have recovered quite well. That's good news! Everyone else is reportedly healthy, and the new players all look like they have been benefiting from workouts. Even Ville Tahvanainen and Rienk Mast, who didn't arrive in Peoria until the last few weeks, must have been working out before arriving. They have bulked up their upper bodies compared with videos we saw of them last spring.
 
Nothing to report after the recruits finished their official visits.

6'10" senior (class of 2020) Jacob Hutson, one of the quality 2020 kids that Bradley has been recruiting and who visited Bradley earlier this month (see top post above), just committed to Loyola.
I believe Loyola was always his favorite (it was his father's alma mater), but maybe the commitment of Darius Hannah to Bradley made his decision easier. In the end, he picked the Ramblers-
