2021 Point guard Seth Wilson, who Bradley just offered yesterday, also got an offer yesterday from Jim Les and UC Davis. Jim has always known how to spot a good D1 point guard prospect!
Seth Wilson also is no longer at St. Vincent-St. Mary High School, the high school in Akron, Ohio that Lebron James attended. He has transferred back home and will be attending Lorain High School in Lorain, Ohio where he grew up and now lives again.

Some Bradley fans might recall that the Braves had one former player from the town of Lorain, Ohio. Andy Bastock, who was recruited by Stan Albeck, and played 3 seasons for him from 1988-1991 was a native of Lorain, Ohio. When Jim Molinari took over in 1991, Bastock did not return to the team for his senior season. I recall Jim saying to a few boosters that he encouraged several players to leave when he got to Bradley partly because "our team lead the country in earrings". One of the players he was referring to was Andy Bastock.
However, Andy Bastock did not attend Lorain HS, but instead was a graduate of a private school in town, Lorain Catholic HS.

Andy later became a high school basketball coach and coached at both Lorain HS and Loraine Catholic HS.

Missouri State fan here, but....

Wouldn’t a kid named Wilson from Loraine, Ohio being recruited by Bradley and Jim Les lend a connection to Paul Wilson?

Once saw Paul play against Winston Garland in a memorable 3on3 tourney in Chicago.

You have a point, and I found this....Seth Wilson is the nephew of Paul Wilson who played for Bradley back in the late 80's

Thanks for bringing up Paul Wilson. I actually got to know Paul when he played at Bradley 1985-1989 and I was making it to a lot of road games. He was a really nice, polite young man. I seem to recall that after he graduated from Bradley he stayed around Peoria and was working somewhere in town. But then eventually, he returned to Ohio, but not to his hometown, Lorain.
I did find his Facebook page, and he is living now in Columbus, Ohio-

Here is a nice article about Paul, and it notes that he is a successful businessman in Columbus, Ohio.

Seth Wilson is a 2021 recruit who Bradley had offered. He is the nephew of former Bradley player Paul Wilson, who played for Dick Versace and Stan Albeck (1985-89). I saw reports on another site that he was visiting Bradley, but I believe that was wrong.
Today he made a verbal commitment to West Virginia University.

This article mentions the Bradley offer-
