From the article, about why he chose Bradley:
'...he pointed to the Braves’ success in recent years, highlighted by a run to the NCAA tournament Sweet 16 in 2006.

“Even though I had a lot of big-time teams recruiting me,” Prosser said. “They’re a big-time program...At Bradley, I felt like I could go and just be ready to play. Why not just go there and have fun?” '

I like this kid. He's going to be quite an asset, especially if the other bigs can take pressure and the focus off of him.

Great article. We are going to love having this kid.

Well he definitely does have the opportunity to play. I hope he realizes though that it's an opportunity and the key to that is working hard for it. I don't expect that he thinks he can walk in here and start right away. We have Egolf coming back and he has the opportunity to start if he wants it bad enough. It's not all roses and having fun....we want to win...and we want the players to work hard to win so JP will be no exception.

Thinking working hard will not be a problem........at all..period....you won't see anyone work harder than JP will.....

very nice article, from a recent BU grad no less!

[real fan]

He hasn"t gotten this good without putting in a lot of hard work , he will fit in perfectly with a program that is dedicated to recruiting good basketball players but also good young men.

Aaron Frey is an BU grad....Good for him but journalism isn't a field that has a good future.


My fresh out of college nephew landed a job as a reporter at an ABC affiliate in Southern Colorado, he's nervous about his job and all the instability that has been plaguing that industry.

He can write for BradleyFans any time!!

He does...

I have a good friend that took his journalism degree and experience and is now parlaying it to doing documentaries. I believe journalism in our society will survive but they will need to find other avenues to explore and mediums to deliver their message. I'm betting that someone will take youTube like platform and create a self policing policy to create a media platform that through advertising will be able to pay journalist. People will be able to create their own newscast and view journalist that they trust and or like. You can now recieve some of the Internet benefits through blogging but the policing, journalistic integrity you get from old media is not there. Once the new media figures out how to audit, verify and create editorial procedures, this medium will explode due to the ability for the consumer to chose what where and when they get their news.

I don't think there's a journalism/communications major or journalist that isn't worried about the uncertainty of their job or the future of the industry. We all knew what we were getting into, but we (most of us, at least) do what we do because we love it.

I agree with much of what SFP said. It's certainly an interesting time to be in this field.

I hope Newspapers survive because, you just cannot take a newspaper into the John! It's awkward!

You can take your handheld and hopefully not drop it in the john. SPLASH!

Here is the article from MidstateHoops.com about "Recruiting Steals" that includes a nice mention of Jordan Prosser-

http://midstatehoops.com/v5/2009/01/29/recruiting-steals-in-2009/

Prosser chose Bradley over strong recruiting interest and a scholarship offer from Illinois State.

Here is what their delusional fans think of Jordan--

By the way- How are Ty Modukpe and Jeremy Robinson working out?



And if you want more laughs, here is another bizarre thread from the ISU fans-

This poster is reacting to Dodie's 3.5 GPA as a history major and making the fall semester AD's honor roll at Bradley--

If anyone from ISU Normal teachers college wants to debate which school is academically better, I don't think we'd have much of a contest there.

WOW....Midstate Hoops really gave JP some props!
