The PJ Star also posted their Area Large-School All Star team-
A couple things-
Note that one of the 1st team All Stars is Pete Hanley, a senior at Notre Dame HS. He says he will be going to Bradley, and he says he may try for a walk-on spot on the Bradley basketball team.
Washington junior point guard Lou Griffith says he has already visited Western Illinois, and I have heard that WIU Coach Billy Wright is very interested in him.
Limestone's star player Chris Dixon-Williams has committed to ICC and will play for Tony Wysinger.Comment

I am hearing there may be another commit or two before the weekend is over, but this staff is very stingy with info.Comment

Good. Glad they are.Originally posted by Da Coach View PostWhat part of illegal don't you understand?Comment

I think the fact that he is being given a "gray shirt" year is a very safe risk.Originally posted by lefty View PostComment

There will be no other commitments coming from the visits this past weekend. It is my understanding that the only two players who were offered a scholarship were Ronnie Suggs and Dwayne Lautier-Ogunleye.
The other recruits who were visiting were junior college players who left and who were not offered a scholarship. There will be more recruits coming for visits. And the Max Bielfeldt offer remains on the table awaiting his decision, as does the Alex O'Neill offer.Comment

One more note on the staff- as many of you know from PMs, Bradley will be hiring a Video Coordinator this year, a position that many schools have, but Bradley never has. And without mentioning names (many of you already know who it will be and Bradley apparently doesn't want it announced yet) I have heard Coach Wardle's choice for this position is a superb one that will benefit this team greatly.Comment

Alex Peacock, who I saw play for Normal Community in the Class 4A supersectional upset of Simeon, and then in the state semi-finals has committed to Iowa Western CC, a junior college in Council Bluffs, Iowa.Originally posted by Da Coach View Post
I actually though Peacock could have played at a lower D1 school. But Iowa Western seems like a good choice for him now. By going to a juco, he'll have his chance to get a D1 scholarship in a couple years.

Well nobody is going to accuse Wardle of being lazy, that's for sure! Man alive, how has he got so much done in such a short amount of time!Larry Bird
I've got a theory that if you give 100 percent all of the time, somehow things will work out in the end.Comment
