2018 & Beyond recruiting targets

[tornado]

2018 ...Dexter Dennis...

Dexter Dennis had interest from Bradley but I don't think we had ever offered...
..up til just a few weeks ago - he had only a couple low-mid offers....
he waited it out and found that once you hit the spring, you will get noticed...
SIU was one of his offers, as were Lafayette, IUPUI...

But Wichita was sitting on a couple open scholarships - so he just signed with Wichita State!

I??™m in on CB. Did I read he??™d have 3 yrs? I thought so but then couldn??™t find again.

[LongTimeFan]

Has anyone heard anything about the potential recruits that were on campus? It would seem things may not have gone the best if Biles was offered.

Yes, it is possible Biles is better. However Jones and others may have fit the need for Bradley to continue the movement.

[Da Coach]

Messiah Jones reports, "The visit went great! I enjoyed it".
When asked where he will be going to school next year, he said "Not sure yet".

[Bradleyfan1]

So Boyd has 3 years and lights out from the line. I like that.

Yes, but he would have to sit out next season as a transfer.

Here are his stats from his freshman season at Eastern Kentucky-

[Bradleyfan1]

Having to sit with the guard depth we have is a good thing .

[Da Coach]

a transfer?? 6-4 guard with 3 years left to play..originally from Brownsville TN, about 50 miles east of Memphis (prob knows Darrell Brown, Jr.)

"EKU transfer Dedric Boyd has heard from Liberty, Colorado State, Marshall,
Louisiana Tech, Nevada, Tulsa, Bradley, Wofford and Evansville."

https://twitter.com/EvanDaniels/status/979088227171749888

he was one of their best players - 13.2 ppg, 83% FT shooter, 3.3 rpg, 2 apg
not real high shooting pcts

Dedric Boyd highlight video from this past year-

I'd love to get this kid even if he has to sit next year. He is a shot maker!

[Da Coach]

I'd love to get this kid even if he has to sit next year. He is a shot maker!

He doesn't quite make as many overall as he appears to make in the highlight video. His shooting percentage was not real good- 35.4% overall, and 28.1% from three.

http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/player/_/id/4279854/dedric-boyd

He missed the last few weeks of the season at Eastern Kentucky due to an Achilles tendon injury. I hope he is fully recovered.

[Bradleyfan1]

He would help in free throw shooting and I think he could be a real good defender and rebounder. Not a bad freshman season. He??™s not the answer for this upcoming season but I think he??™d be a nice get.

Here's a name some will remember -

Limestone HS' Terence Shelby... he went juco first at Marshalltown Community College (Marshalltown IA) (16.5 ppg) then at Southwestern Community College (in Creston IA)
...averaged 17 ppg, 8 rpf - not bad for 6-2 guard!
He also hit 43.2 from 3-pt range

http://njcaa.org/sports/mbkb/2017-18/div2/players/terenceshelbyjrme8p

he just committed to a 4-year school, Arizona Christian School

. With those stats it seems he could have went higher. At least he??™ll be in God??™s country, Arizona.
