Bradley game emcee Josiah Williams retiring

[Da Coach]

I know there might be a few old-school Bradley fans who don't appreciate a game emcee, but I have really enjoyed what Josiah Williams has brought to the Bradley game experience the last 5 seasons, and I think most fans do as well. Unfortunately, Josiah has emceed his last game for Bradley. Josiah is a great guy, and we wish him good luck and much success in the future.

wish he'd have gotten a position with WMBD so we'd finally get some nice off-season press coverage...
Here we are a month from the end of a great season - and we've gotten nothing in our local media except a microscopic blurb about 2 players leaving and one committing

Thanks Josiah!

Knock em dead in the WWE, Josiah! You’ll be missed!

I haven’t been able to make to a game in awhile, but I thought Paul Herzog was the emcee.

Chico, Paul Herzog has been the PA announcer for 42 years and looking forward to year number 43 as we all should be.

I’m old and stupid I guess but what is a game emcee compared to a PA announcer?

Josiah came out onto the floor during timeouts to announce/call promotions like 3 point shooting contests and tshirt tosses and rev up the crowd. He brought energy and enthusiasm which will be missed.
