POB sign with Agent.

AV23 - you want JLes to rush out and sign a player this late in the year for 2 years, or should Les 'save' the scholarship for next year's class on a possible better player?

If Les can get a good big man this late than I say go for it. If not then he should save the scholarship.

Jim has one scholarship for 2007 committed (Maniscalco)
But should have three more plus the one from POB, making four to give out now.
(POB's, DA's, Will F's, Zach A's, JJ's)
I say if there is a player right now that can help for 06-07, use it pronto. Even if it a player who sits out 06-07 from transferring, grab now if he's a stud.

I trust the staff's ability to decide whether a not a kid is worth signing this late in the game. If not, we've got one more bullet to add to the most important class in the last 20 years of Bradley Basketball.

Good Luck to POB. I think he will eventually be a star in the NBA. He has soo much talent.

Looks like JL did give PO'Bs ride away...to Jeremy Fears? He will have to sit out next season but sounds like a very good player!

PS............THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES PO'B & GOOD LUCK!

Of course hiring an agent means that the "agent" can actually give the "client" an "advance" of what Patrick might earn in the NBA in exchange for the exclusive rights to represent Patrick when contract negotiations begin, and of course the agent can receive the usual "commission".

So, I suspect we can also congratulate Patrick on successfully accomplishing this.

POB thanks for the 2 great years it was fun watching you grow on and off the court thanks for the memories.Please don't forget us back at BU.

[BradleyBrave]

Please don't forget us back at BU.

That's what I am afraid of.

[AV23]

Please don't forget us back at BU.

That's what I am afraid of.

Now why are you are anyone else afraid about POB forgetting about BU

[BU Bill]

I think it happens in any profession. When someone becomes successful and rich, they sometimes can forget about the common people who helped them get where they are.

I guess we will have to see what master mind Coach Les does with that one open scholarship. I hope he can lure a big man into coming to BU

"mastermind" as you sarcastically call him did pretty well with this scholarship. Fears is an absolute steal for BU, and a player who was being pursued by BCS-type schools, and as highly rated as any other MVC recruit.

If Les can get a good big man this late than I say go for it. If not then he should save the scholarship.

Do you still think he should have "saved" the scholarship?
