Wardle had offered him a scholarship to Green Bay when he was the coach there.

[tornado]

I n case anyone is interested, Green Bay has 2 kids who have signed Letters of Intent for this coming fall - who may want to reopen recruitment now that the coach at Green Bay has changed.

Julian Torres - LINK - Torres helped Bolingbrook to STATE - LINK
Joel Okafor - LINK - some nice press - LINK
Antoine Pittman - LINK - & you might want to watch this - from same high school as Fred Van Vleet - LINK

They also have a roster of numerous undergrad kids that still have some eligibility and may wish to transfer...

....only Love, Francis, Lowe were among the main players & top scorers...
Francis is just a freshman, but in a promising 6-3 SG

We have to recruit better than horizon league players.

We have to recruit better than horizon league players.

Love your optimism.......maybe wait until they get on the court to pass judgement?....just a thought

Hauser has a solid offer from Marquette - they offered even before his junior year -
and Northern Iowa is very hard after Hauser - we can't let them land him!
he is a very good player - could do for us what Sam Dekker does for Wisconsin

Didn't GF offer Jabari Parker? Did that stop Duke?

I'm just saying we better recruit better than horizon league players or we be in the same mess we are in now.

Considering all the games they have been winning in Green Bay I would say he has been recruiting better than Horizon players already.

If he gets the best of the Horizon league I think we would be fine??¦.Sykes,Peter,Felder, etc

he's talking building the entire program all from"the ground up" with no transfers - just bringing in all freshmen ..
so this also fits with players departing.

If we are going to only recruit four-year players, how many scholarship players can Bradley put on the floor next year?
