Thanks to BU senior Ryan Phillips- #25

[Da Coach]

Ryno, #25, has been a walkon most of the 4 years he has been at Bradley. I believe he was under scholarship for 1 or 2 semesters. But he has been an important part of the team all 4 years. Ask any coach and they will tell you that walkons, even if the don't play much are integral to running practices, and pushing the scholarship players to improve and play better.
They are also helpful in creating a better academic environment among the other teammates.

Here are Ryan's career stats-

RP if anyone deserves thanks, you sure do. It takes a special person to put in 4 years of hard work with so little playing time. At least you will have many special memories to last you a life time. Best of luck in your future and remember "Once a Brave Always a Brave."

Seems like just yesterday I was watching Ryan play with Bill Cole on TV in a super-sectional high school game. Now he is already graduating. I never got to see much of you playing at BU, but I appreciate all the hard work and the way you have pushed the starters and represented the school academically. Thanks and good luck in your future!

Congratulations on your 4 years at BU, it is not easy working your a-- off in practice knowing that you will not get much if any playing time , I hope the team appreciates you for all the help you have given them.
