BU recruit David Cohn commits to Colorado State

[lake Camelot]

I didn't realize Larry was coach there. Enjoy your time there Mr. Cohn. You've made a mistake.

Former Bradley recruit David Cohn apparently realizes that he did make a mistake. He is leaving Colorado State and transferring.

This is one transfer I think would help Bradley a lot, and he might be interested here, as he was before his commitment to CSU.

very interesting....
Cohn was a starter right off the bat and played 30+ minutes per game early on...

But as the season wore on his production lagged, he lost the starting spot then lost most of his playing time...
In some key games down the stretch he got one single minute - just a cameo as if the coach was trying to send a signal

I'd definitely take a look at the kid and try to get him to come visit.


Nothing confirmed but there's also a rumor that Louisville's Wayne Blackshear may be transferring - he's a Morgan Park & Mac Irvin kid....could he be a possibility?

I like those two names buts correct me if I'm wrong. They both would have to sit a year and unless I'm missing something ,we need immediate help. We are in BIG TROUBLE unless we get a few more in here that can help right NOW.

[Da Coach]

Yes, they would both have to sit a year, and I don't see any sign that they would qualify for a hardship waiver. I could see taking one transfer if it is a kid that could really help Bradley, but not 2.

By the way- the reason there may be a glimmer of hope the Blackshear rumor could be true, is that Blackshear and Mike Shaw were very close friends throughout high school, even though they attended different schools (Shaw was at De La Salle and Blackshear at Morgan Park). There were rumors for a long time that they would make their decision together as a package deal and attend the same college, which in the end did not materialize.

I agree. Unless we see upwards of two people leave this year I do not see transfers that have to sit out helping at all. I know we need talent, but we need talent that helps sooner than later.

a second Colorado State player is leaving - 6-10 juco big man Marcus Holt
..but Colorado State had numerous new players coming in next fall and had a couple transfers sitting out (including ex-SIU big man Dantiel Daniels) -
so it turns out they were going to be TWO men over the 13-scholarship limit ..
thus it was known that at least two players were going to be leaving ...and it now turns out those two are identified as Cohn & Holt..

Former BU recruit David Cohn is transferring to William & Mary.
