Macaleab Rich is highly athletic. Would be great at the mid major level imo.

I remember him from HS, he would be a great get for us if we could.

Yes, waiting patiently for recruiting news. Do not know if BU will sign anymore H.S. freshman, but need so desperately Frontline post studs. Hope we hear news soon. Can't wait for next season to start. "LET'S GO BRAVES"

This bring up a good point. With all the player slots being taken up by transfers there has to be alot of high school kids out there with no place to go.. Maybe Bradley could pick up a good one

Good news. Maybe it will become our turn to announce commitments.

[Da Coach]

Visits scheduled...

[Steve Zalutsky]

I'm patiently waiting for our first of hopefully many good portal players to commit to BU!
