Confirmation via twitter, that Bradley is recruiting Mark Gilchrese, Springfield HS and Peoria Irish.
He is a heady PG along the lines of DRuff. Gilchrese is Class of 2011, and although only about 5-9 right now, he is expected to grow a bit more.

In another column, Mark Gilchrese says this.........

"Gilchrese has received heavy interest from several Missouri Valley
Conference teams...

"The three schools that are probably recruiting me the hardest are Bradley,
Northern Iowa and Missouri State," Gilchrese said. "I just got back from a visit
from Bradley on Tuesday. It went good.
I got to talk to some of the players
and coaches and watch their practices and stuff. I like Coach Jim Les and
Coach (Eric) Buescher and everyone on their staff. I like their style of play.
They're really guard-oriented. I like that the guards are in control."

"Northern Iowa, I like Coach (Ben) Jacobson also. I like their style of play.
They have a great facility. They've been winning, so they get the job done in
the Missouri Valley. Missouri State, I don't really know too much about their
team enough yet. But (Asisstant) Coach Kent Williams and them are all real
nice. (Bradley, Northern Iowa and Missouri State are) looking for point guard
because with all those schools, they have point guards that when I'm going
to college, their point guards will be graduating. They're looking for a point
guard to come in and fill in at that spot."

"It's definitely different playing with Hayden (Hoerdemann) and Max (Bielfeldt)
because on the high school team I don't have players like that," Gilchrese
said. "Max and Hayden, they're really good. Hayden's a great shooter and a
great overall player. Max, he's real good inside. He can shoot, and he can
bang with the best of them. The opportunity to play with the makes me
better."
