    Not to be anti-growth or anything, but it almost seems better when it's word of mouth ... almost like a vetting. For the most part, WOM produces people who are, if not vastly knowledgeable, at least respectful of the team, coaches and sport in general.

    Just a thought.

          Oh, I thought it was a reference to posting in a manner like "vet" over on the other board!



          BY THE WAY-- here's some real recruiting news.....from a premium article over on the Indiana Rivals site...

          The main writer for IU Rivals, Mike Pegram, went to watch the Indiana Elite AAU team play in Cincinnati in the "Adidas It Takes 5IVE Classic"

          He gave this report on Lewis Jackson:
          "we stopped first in Cincinnati to watch Lewis Jackson lead his Indiana Elite team to a tough 66-64 quarterfinal win in the Adidas It Takes 5IVE Classic...
          Jackson was solid with a couple nice drives and again showed the ability to get his team into transition opportunities. The Indiana team is very short handed now as Emmanuel Negedu is off playing preparing for an international event in Serbia and DeAndre Liggins is out with an injury. Shooter specialist Matt Roth and power forward Leonard Washington were also away. Given that it shouldn't be surprising this squad struggled in their Super Pool and fell in the semis later yesterday.

          We spoke to Jackson after the quarterfinal game and he still has IU high but did indicate Gonzaga is making a strong push of late."



          I could find no info on why Matt Roth was not playing with his AAU team, but possibly he's with his HS team at some event.



          PS-- I found a funny line/quote in a premium article from this AAU event.
          Apparently one of the kids, Demar DeRozan was pretty impressive. Here is info on him
          Stay up to date with all the DePaul Blue Demons sports news, recruiting, transfers, and more at 247Sports.com


          But here is the quote:
          "???‚¬??I???‚¬?„?d trade my whole team for Demar DeRozan. He???‚¬?„?s a monster.???‚¬??
          ----Submitted by an assistant coach of a Sweet 16 team from last season"

            Money talks.... Paid advertisement related to a team covered in the "Hoops" section. Hey, if they shoot you guys down then it is an obvious snub which may only suggest jealousy and fear for the competition.
            Whaddya think, BradleyFans has a million dollar budget?
            One tiny ad in the paper would probably cost more than the total spent over the past 2.5 years running the site!
            Hopefully BradleyFans will continue to grow by word of mouth.
            Sorry T. I was kinda kidding.

            I got an idea, though... how about making up some T-Shirts and sell 'em through this site. I know a guy who can offer you a pretty fair deal making T-Shirts.

            I know I would buy one and proudly wear it often.

                I'm always up for another BU shirt!! Even better if it gives me more people to talk BU hoops with.

                  I'd wear one for sure, sounds like a good idea, someone would have to come up with a catchy slogan ...

                          Nice avatar, Braveman. Does your boss know you have been goofing off with the PhotoShop program?
