2024 Commitment..PG JaQuan Johnson...

[LongTimeFan]

We all know stats can be manipulated based on the definition of the population, sample size, and the people doing the analysis. (I sure several more terms apply but my stats class was 55 to 60 years ago.)

We could change the question to who turned their team around the quickest and get different results.

Now DC knows I have been a fan for longer than most of followers have been alive. I can remember listening to freshmen games on the radio. Bradley had a good freshmen team of Ernie Thompson, Eddie Jackson, Ron Martin, and one other. So I don't count myself as being disloyal when I question some statements.

Yes, he has them playing well. But they haven't won anything yet, while Bradley has. My point was, fans seem to have a short memory.
As I noted above, Bradley has been the most successful team among the current MVC teams over the last 5 seasons.

In the last 5 seasons, here are the only teams to win any titles in the MVC-
Loyola- 2 regular season championships and 2 MVC Tournament titles - Note: in the last 1½ seasons they are 17-26, with a dead last place finish (15th place) in 2022-23
Bradley- 1 regular season championship and 2 MVC Tournament titles
UNI- 2 regular season championships
Drake- 1 MVC Tournament title
Indiana State, SIU, Missouri State, Illinois State, Belmont, Murray State, UIC, Evansville, Valparaiso- NONE

So Bradley has as many titles in the last 5 seasons as all the other current MVC teams combined.

Yes we have but because of that expectations are high. I just expected for recruiting to be better after last season. I also had hoped the NIL money would get us good transfers.We still have time to start playing better and winning more games but it needs to begin on the road at Valpo.

I have observed the defensive lax from J'Quan also. I could probably play better D than he has shown - at least put in 2x as much effort. While his coach may be telling him to stay out of foul trouble, this will not be good in prepping him for the next level. His offensive skill set is AMAZING to put it lightly - hardly a weakness from the highlights (which I know can be skewed). We'll see what happens and hopefully he won't be pulled away by some bigger school.

Jaquan Johnson's team, Pope Pius XI, played again last night against Pewaukee, one of the top ranked schools in the state of Wisconsin (ranked #2 in Class 2A). They have a talented player named Nick Janowski who is committed to Nebraska and who is one of the top scorers in the state.

Kid scored 29 pts in last 14 min. of the game. 1st half he was dishin' well. He can light it up! Imagine Duke coming back next season with this guy on the same court.
