New commitment for 2011- Shayok Shayok

[Da Coach]

Canadians:
(I count seven total)
Shayok Shayok
David Collins
James Gillingham
Jason Faulknor
Jerome Robinson
Stevan Marcetic
Dan Secli

Correction. There have been 6 Canadians who have played for Bradley:
Dan Secli was a Dick Versace recruit. He came in 1979 but redshirted his first season due to a serious knee injury he suffered in a high school all star game. He played in 1 game in 1980, reinjured his knee, and retired from competetive basketball.

Stevan Marcetic played from 2002-2003
Jerome Robinson played from 1997-2001
Jason Faulknor played from 2000-2004
James Gillingham played from 2000-2004
David Collins played from 2007-2009

All were from the Toronto area (Guelph is about 60 miles from Toronto), and all except Collins and Secli were Jim Molinari recruits.

I think it's safe to say that Eastman won't be playing any more time at the 4.

and that my friend is GREAT News! I am looking forward to seeing Jake fill that shooters role for BU...

MCD I agree 100 % The way I see it we need him to fill that shooters role very badly. If not someone else needs to step up in that shooters role. Maybe Mk but doubt it. We seem to have filled our bigs need now we need some shooters. Hopefully jake can fillit.

Any chance of seeing WE more at the PF position and out of the middle? Thats something I would like to see more of.

While I would like that as well, I think it's unlikely. NW will (more than likely) be redshirting. DH and Shayok are both smaller than WE. JP will get some time in the middle, but it seems that WE might be our second best option down low for next year.

Does anyone know- have we ever played the canadian anthem along side the national anthem hockey style?

For some reason I thought we did with Robinson/Gillingham, maybe just for a special occasion?

[Da Coach]

I do not ever remember that. I think I would if it ever happened.

I think ISU played the Nigerian national anthem for Dinma on senior night... It was pretty neat to be honest with you...

His younger brother is also a fine player. He still plays for St. Patrick's HS in Ottawa, Ontario (Shayok Shayok's high school), and is a very high scoring guard.
