Bradley commit Ben Thornbrue is from Hillsboro, Oregon (just west of Portland) via College of Southern Idaho.

Over the past 25-26 seasons - (EXCLUDING the Yuba kids who had the JL/Coach Corn connection)
How many Bradley commits have come from WEST of Colorado? (Christian Davis was from Denver)
I doubt there's more than a couple....(and no fair listing Kai Yu or the Aussie guys ;) )

I'll start with three & I bet 90% of our posters won't even remember one of them

Rashad Austin - from Rancho Cucamonga, CA
Jojo McGlaston - Dublin, CA
Mikey Howell - San Marcos, CA

Wasn't there a guy from Alaska on the team some years back. I believe he played for either Molinari or Les. I don't remember his name.

Austin was a bust....he was on high school team with Darren Collison I think...prob made him look better than he was...kind of a tweener when it came to D1...was prob 6'6" or so, but had the game of a post player..couldn't really dribble or pass well enough to be on the perimeter, and didn't have the size to be effective down low.
 
Darian Norris from Las Vegas (class of 2008)

and Milos Knezevic, also from Las Vegas (class of 2009)
 
thanks for the answers..

..for Zach & Boogie - I did mention "EXCLUDING the Yuba kids"
and I had already listed Mikey Howell in the original post
Biddlecome, Egolf, Norris & Knezevic fit the specifics...altho Biddlecombe reneged & never enrolled

For extra credit- can you name the city & state Biddlecome came from?

BU had already passed on Austin for '07 but when two scholarships opened unexpectedlylate in spring of 2007
...JL gave him a shot - and you're right - like a lot of mid-major offers, he turned out to be a bust.

I guess if we had to put together an ALL TIME Starting Five of west coast guys - we'd have to dig deep...
I can only hope that Ben Thornbrue breaks that mold - but my All Time starting five would be:
Egolf, Zach Andrews, Boogie Wright, Mikey Howell and Milos....

Does Cameron Rigby count? Australia is further West than Colorado. ;)

In the top post, he said "(and no fair listing Kai Yu or the Aussie guys ;) )'
But I think he counts! Bradley has had a couple other Australians- Callum Barker and Jayden Hodgson
