He is a very athletic 6-6 shooting guard/ forward and as soon as he made his announcement, his tweet was liked & retweeted by DLO!

I am not so sure we were still pursuing him...

based on a few things said last night at the Voice of the Braves event, some of the players we had been reported to have offered...things had changed and were not on our radar any more

our coaches will be at big AAU events this weekend in Indianapolis & Atlanta



the list keeps shrinking as players we've discussed commit elsewhere- Marlon Taylor, Amir Allen, Melkizidek Moreaux, Montgomery to CMU and a couple others
..now Illinois State is pursuing Damion Baugh but he's also getting bigger offers

Now Messiah Jones to Wofford

Boya 2018 or 2019

Boya 2018 or 2019

When we will know if Boya is eligible for 2018?

Is it likely that the NLI signing period ends and we still have scholarships to fill?
What will we likely do then?

there have been reports that we won't know Boya's status as possibly a 2018 recruit until late June. That might change ...

the signing period ends May 16, so yes, it is pretty likely we will save one scholarship until Boya is settled...I am anxious to see if we lock in on someone else this weekend
but as always, nobody really knows for sure - what we discuss is from an outside-looking-in perspective...

So far, we have had names and info about every Bradley recruit well before anyone else reported them anywhere. That shows that our info and sources are pretty good. So I wanted to post some early info about another potential recruit.

There is a recruit for 2018 that is a bit atypical & way under the radar. I cannot find any recruiting site that even has his name in their database.
We won't post a name yet, because he is a virtual unknown, and maybe that works to Bradley's advantage.
He is a 6'8" skilled forward who is an outstanding shooter. He is a foreign kid who moved to the US and played his senior season at a tiny high school and went virtually unnoticed. But he recently played in a spring exposure event and things changed. Most of the coaches who attended the event were scouting players from 2019 & 2020, but this kid reportedly stood out. Our coaches have made contact, and we'll see what develops.
Here are few paraphrased (:)) comments from several different bloggers who scouted the event-
> high level scorer...mid range jumper & 3-point shooting very impressive
> Big-time skills & athleticism
> one of the best seniors available
> ******** was the talk of the event
> impressed with his array of huge dunks & ability to shoot from three.
> athletic, but also has a good touch and can shoot from deep
> plays both fwd spots & should be recruited by lots of midmajor & high major schools.
> ...could turn into a hot prospect for many schools
And one blogger for a Power 5 conference team saw him and commented:
Our coaches saw him....and are expected visit him again soon.

DC, any updates on this prospect?

Good stuff. Thank you. tornado.
 
one thing from last night - I think the coaching staff wants to do something in early May after the active recruiting weekends come to a close...
so look possibly for additional events or a chat session...

2018 Ja'Shon Henry (also sometimes spelled Jashon Henry)- 6'5" wing player from Athol Murray College of Notre Dame prep school in the somewhat remote city of Saskatoon, in the province of Saskatchewan, Canada. He currently has an offer from St. Bonaventure.

Jashon Henry is one of several 2018 recruits that Bradley is still in contact with. He remains uncommitted since our previous post about him last November.
He went on to have a monster senior season and was named the Canadian National Preparatory Association’s Most Valuable Player, the top award for a prep player in Canada. He averaged 28.1 point, 7.1 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game contest. His 28.1 ppg scoring average was by far the highest average in all of Canada. He is now getting a lot more Division I interest.
http://northpolehoops.com/2018/03/18/jashon-henry-selected-as-signature-and-biosteel-all-canadian/

He recently was invited to appear in a couple of Canadian prep All Star games, the Signature All-Canadian Showcase and the BioSteel All-Canadian games, along with all the top players in Canada. The Signature All-Canadian Showcase is a new event that held its inaugural event his month.

ESPN article-
http://www.espn.com/college-sports/...ure-all-canadian-showcase-high-school-players

Jashon Henry was the first player from Saskatchewan to ever appear in either of the games.

Here are a couple more recent highlight videos since we made the initial post in November-

...uncommitted but still reportedly with Bradley offers...
Damien Baugh - Memphis PG OFFERED
Emmanuel Umoffia - OFFERED 12/13/17

Just committed...
Brothers Tremell Murphy & Anthony Murphy - OFFERED - two really talented juco sophomores - OFF THE BOARD as they now both COMMIT to DRAKE

interest only but we have not offered....probably most of these are not likely, leaning DII or already off the board/not going to be offered...
Kaleb Thornton - Bolingbrook point guard - had a great run in IHSA Finals, Tray Jackson, Daishaun Woods, Robert Harvey, Angus Glover,
Bailey Dee - just visited Bradley on 8/9/2016
Hunter Strait, Hunter White, Tim Carter, LaTrayvion Jackson, Tyreese Davis,
Ja'Shon Henry, Mohamed Thiam, Christian Guess, Michael Wykoff, Shaun Williams, D. Rivny, Marcel Haskett


a flurry of activity as now both Tremell Murphy & Anthony Murphy commit to Drake

and former recruiting target also - DeAndre Heckard just committed to juco

a former BU recruit Tray Jackson from Ypsilanti MI is headed to Sunrise Christian Academy in Wichita and will become a 2019 recruit

also- one other recruit Bradley was possibly interested...Dmitry Rivny, was a heavy lean towards Alabama (his only offer)..BUT....
suddenly he may be back on the market...as one of Alabama's seniors just got granted a redhsirt and will return in 2018-19,
thus using their final scholarships.

Drake just landed 3 junior college players from Florida Southwestern State College, including Tremell and Anthony Murphy, and D.J. Wilkins. Now Drake head coach Darren DeVries hires the head coach of Florida Southwestern as an assistant.
