    Compared to most midmajors & other MVC teams Bradley has a had a lot of players make it to the NBA and play professionally elsewhere..

    I count currently 18 Bradley players who had still been playing professionally within the past year or two...
    Zach Andrews, Tony Bennett, Taylor Brown, Jeremy Fears, Angelo Flanders, Will Franklin, Danny Granger, Aba Koita, Walt Lemon, Patrick O'Bryant, Chris Roberts, Daniel Ruffin, Matt Salley, Dyricus, Cellus, Anthony Thompson, Andrew Warren, Lawrence Wright....with a couple more at least making a pro roster or signed and not yet playing like Tyshon Pickett..

            Reason I questioned it is because I can't get the link to come up on my iPad.
