2018 & Beyond recruiting targets

[Da Coach]

So far, we have had names and info about every Bradley recruit well before anyone else reported them anywhere. That shows that our info and sources are pretty good. So I wanted to post some early info about another potential recruit.
This post was updated 4/30/18 with further info about this recruit.

There is a recruit for 2018 that is a bit atypical & way under the radar. I cannot find any recruiting site that even has his name in their database.
His name is Dmitry Rivny (sometimes spelled Ryuny)-

He is a 6'8" skilled forward who is an outstanding shooter. He is a foreign kid who moved to the US and played his senior season at a tiny high school and went virtually unnoticed. But he recently played in a spring exposure event and things changed. Most of the coaches who attended the event were scouting players from 2019 & 2020, but this kid reportedly stood out. Our coaches have made contact, and we'll see what develops.
He recently played in a showcase event, and opened some eyes with his performance, especially his shooting-

2018 Dmitry Rivny (Ryuny), a small school kid who was virtually unnoticed until suddenly getting attention after playing in a spring showcase event, and who Bradley was contacting, just committed to University of San Francisco.

What Is Likely?

Now that the NLI period is ended, what is likely to happen to the one or two scholarships we have open, depending upon Boya? Will we just play with one or two less players or one or two less scholarship players?

[tornado]

we'll have to wait & see
could take a late transfer - we didn't even know about McGlaston until late April last year

Luuk van Bree didn't commit until May 12, Scottie James on May 17, and Callum Barker June 13 - so maybe someone will still be added...
there still may be other transfers too...

There is still a good chance one scholarship will be taken by Ari Boya.
And I think the coaches will still add another player as well.

A 2018 name to note-

Riley Grigsby- 6'6" forward from Archbishop Mitty High School in San Jose, California. He's an uncommitted senior who has a couple midmajor offers (North Dakota & Presbyterian). He is a strong physical kid who is projected to have a high upside, and is said to be "One of top unsigned seniors on west coast". He was on an official visit to Oregon State last weekend, and he has also visited St. Mary's on an official visit. He played in a spring showcase event for unsigned seniors in Northern California three weeks ago, and drew a lot of attention for his outstanding play.

I am starting to get a little discouraged with our open scholarship, no mumblings of anything happening any time soon.

[tornado]

looks like the rest of our 2018 targets have all either signed elsewhere or are likely off the radar screen...so i do not know if we will use the unclaimed 2018 scholarship this year...perhaps a transfer will still materialize....

Baugh & Umoffia are still available but Baugh has reclassified to 2019 & is getting some big offers while Umoffia is getting almost zero interest -

some of the other obscure ones (Tyreese Davis to Jacksonville, Jarred Godfrey to Ft. Wayne, Bailey Dee to Kirkwood, Glover just underwent ACL surgery) are no longer targets

I have reason to believe per communication, that Boya is on track and things look optimistic for 2018

2018 (four open scholarships - two still remain open - one was taken by Brummett, one by Bile & another possibly taken by Boya)

Armon Brummett - COMMITTED on 1/23/2018 - here was the earliest mention of him - Armon Brummett
Chudier Bile COMMITTED on 4/17/18 - athletic juco forward with two years remaining
Aristide Boya - already COMMITTED - maybe will reclassify as 2018 (see under 2019)



...uncommitted but still reportedly with Bradley offers...
Damien Baugh - Memphis PG OFFERED
Emmanuel Umoffia - OFFERED 12/13/17

[tornado]

6'8" Forward Treavon Martin, who was a former 2018 Bradley recruit (don't believe Bradley ever offered) out of Chicago Curie HS, and who committed to Tennessee State back on January 5, 2018, has de-committed and is reopening his recruitment.
As of now, his 6'8" twin brother Tyree Martin, who Bradley also followed, remains committed to Tennessee State.

one time BU recruit Treavon Martin now verbals to SIUE

[BU freak]

6-11 260 lb Limestone center Jake James has committed to Kankakee CC. James ran with the Illinois Irish the last 3 years.

At one time early last fall, Bradley had been in contact and was following Jake James, though nothing developed there. He has a big body, and still has a chance to end up at a D1 school.

Another name that suggests our coaches are still recruiting for the last 2018 scholarship-

2018 Coreyoun Rushin- 6'6" small forward who is in his final year at Sunrise Christian Academy in Wichita, Kansas. He is originally from Chicago, and graduated from Westinghouse HS.

Video highlights from high school. He looks a bit similar to Donte Thomas-

I had thought we might be done with our 2018 target list but now we need to boost Jashon Henry up to the top...

Emmanuel Umoffia - OFFERED 12/13/17
Justin Roberts - formerly a top target then transferring from DePaul so we will add him back


interest only but we have not offered....probably most of these are not likely, leaning DII or already off the board/not going to be offered...
Riley Grigsby, Coreyoun Rushin, Daishaun Woods, Angus Glover, Tim Carter, Tyreese Davis, Michael Wykoff, Shaun Williams, Marcel Haskett

It appears that 2018 recruiting is over, so this thread will be unstuck from the top of the board.

[tornado]

yup- barring something extremely unexpected - we'll move Jashon Henry to the COMMITTED file
