Alex Huibregtse commits to Bradley

Ok- this is not my strong suit, so everyone help out -
let’s start working on nicknames

Zobs-2.0 .. someone take it from there
 
There are several articles online that explain how to pronounce Alex Huibregtse's last name. Here is one from the Wright State website -
https://www.wright.edu/retirees-association/news/article/ddn-healthy-huibregtse-ready-to-fill-void-for-raiders#:~:text=%E2%80%9CI%20tried%20to%20tough%20 it%20out%20and%20play%20through%20it%2C%20but%20it %20was%20getting%20worse%20and%20worse%2C%E2%80%9D %20said%20Huibregtse%20(pronounced%20(HUE%2Dbricks).

“I tried to tough it out and play through it, but it was getting worse and worse,” said Huibregtse (pronounced (HUE-bricks).

And a pronunciation guide from the Myrtle Beach Invitational that included Wright State, in addition to Bradley - https://espnevents.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/2024-PRONUNCIATION-GUIDE-1.pdf

I see one issue with this transfer….. Dave Snell (and everybody else) may have difficulty pronouncing his last name.

Ya Dave is morphing into Harry Caray as he ages (minus the Budweiser). For example 'Timothy van der....and then Chad Klein finishes 'Timoty van der Knapp'!

Check two of the three boxes I wanted to fill…a four who is tough and rebounds, and a shooting guard who can hit threes. Still need a good 5 man.

Any report on this guy’s defense? Still wondering who our primary perimeter defender will be.

I believe they are both guards/wings. Smith could probably play a small lineup 4, but he's been a guard.
 
I don’t know how many views the Scout gets but this message board gets well over a million page views a month, so I wish Latif Love would post some content here as well. It would also lead to a lot more viewers getting linked & referred to Live’s articles on the Scout.

Man, there is going to be tough competition at the guard position this year. It will be interesting to see who ends up getting the starting roles.

Great point Tommy... but I'd be very surprised if the starting lineup to start the year isn't the following:

Bully
Huibregtse
Burch
Smith
Meta


I see BU playing 3 guards just about all year. The 3 freshmen will probably fill in for the starters at those spots. Burch will have to guard more of the 3's on defense. Thomas probably backs up Meta and Smith in a perfect world. It just seems like the Braves are one frontcourt player short, which was going to be Wol.
