  • Drake Big Man given another season

    According to my son who is a Drake graduate, Darnell Brodie has been granted a 6th season by the NCAA. He played 2 years at Seaton Hall, but was injured most of one year and has played 3 years at Drake. This coming year will be his 4th year at Drake. This has to make him one of the older players in major college basketball.

    He's probably going to be about 26 years old when he graduates.

      That is older than a lot of NBA players.

        close- he was born Sept. 1998, graduated HS in New Jersey in 2017, then a year of prep school, then entered Seton Hall in fall 2018.

          Close to it, and he is one of the best big men in the conference, definitely keeps things looking good for Drake next year.

            Looking over Drake's roster- they really only have three guys who were a significant part of their 2022-23 rotation (DeVries, Brodie, Enright)
            Gonna need a scorecard for everyone else....
            They have 11 completely new guys- Roberts, Price, Alia, Johnson, Rosario, Wright, Bath, Garland, Hall, Overton, Gibson.
            That's an awfully lot of new guys, most are freshmen & walk-ons altho a couple of them do have some DI experience as transfers from lesser leagues. (Army, UT-Arlington & Cal State- Northridge) Bradley's experience with such transfers has been largely disappointing
            (Kingsby, McGlaston, McAdoo, Nolan, Weathers, East..)

              This giving him another year is a complete joke. DeVries must know someone big in the NCAA compliant office for them to ok. this idiotic move. Brodie is too old to be playing college basketball period. Guy needs to get a real job and leave campus.
