BU recruit- class of 2010- Ben Brust

the Big Ten will apparently rule on this but yes, he could definitely pay his own way...this apparently only involves whether he could be given a scholarship
 
There's talk that the families of both Brust and of Larson are upset, since the main reason they are considering other Big Ten programs...
Then -- suddenly both are caught off guard with this Big Ten rule;
as it happens...both kids had other Big Ten programs as the other options...

Now the families are upset that they were not fully informed of the rule....
But seriously - whose job is it for them to be informed?? I think it's their job.....

I understand why the Big Ten has this rule because you would have coaches calling players from other teams telling them that they could get more time by transferring to their school, Brust should just commit to BU and be a star in the Valley, our offense is geared to players like him.
 
Brust commits to Wisconsin per his twitter feed.

He seems to be very similar to Matt Roth and would have had a chance to be a star at the mid-major level. I don't seem him being much more than a spot up 3-point shooter for his first couple years. At least he will have a chance to improve under one of the best player developer coaches in the game in Bo Ryan.

He is much much much more athletic than Roth.

Laron Dendy did indeed bolt from Iowa State, although some talk hints that he was sent packing ....he was used mostly as a sub, averaged 7 ppg, and had issues both academically and also was docked some time and games for walking out on his team last year with no explanation...

The guy is barely worth a mid-major look and has tons of baggage...and wherever he transfers, since he'll have to sit out a year, he'll cost two years of scholarship for only a single remaining season of eligibility..

So....the fact that John Calipari at Kentucky is after the kid kinda shows a little of how desperate Coach Cal must be to fill all his scholarships going after kids like Kyle Cain and Dendy just to have extra bodies in practice with these guys likely never getting much PT...
Dendy is also getting interest from USC, so they're kinda desperate as well.....
 
I found this interview with ex-BU recruit Ben Brust in which he gives some props to Bradley...

Question: "You have siblings who've played college sports. What advice have they given you?"
Brust: "My brother, Stephen, went to Elite Eight in soccer (playing at Bradley) and `I have to beat him,' he says.
It's good that I have family that cares, and I'm sure they'll be there to keep giving me advice."
