BU recruits-2007 - updates and names

[Da Coach]

This may have been listed already on this site, but Will Egolf has now been added to the Scout.com database. He's a 1 star recruit according to them, although I am guessing no one on their staff has ever seen him play. At least they acknowleged his existence. They have him at 6'8", 210.

Rivals has him listed also, but does not give him any stars. They list him at 6'9", 200.

Scout still refuses to acknowledge the Anthony Thompson verbal to BU. Rivals does acknowledge the verbal.

In just 4 days, Will Egolf has been upgraded by Scout.com to a 2 star recruit!

Anytime Scout upgrades a mid-major recruit, it is noteworthy IMO.

That great! I think it shows the people at Scout, primarily Dave Telep, try to do their homework on these kids as much as it is possible to do. He must have found out a little more about Will.

Coffeyville is the same junior college that Anthony Slack and Boo Richardson played at last year. Both were recruited by Bradley but decided on Illinois State.

Leon Powell

Vashon loses to East St. Louis, but Leon Powell has 28 pts., 8 rebs and 8 blocks. I wonder if BU is still interested...

[bu fan 9]

I heard that he might have some grade problems.

I heard that he might have some grade problems.

You appear to be correct, look what I found:

Scott: I saw Leon Powell from Vashon play this weekend. He was dominant. What schools is he looking at right now?

Van Coleman: Right now I think he's got to qualify. He's had interest from the A-10, MoValley and C-USA. I think if he had his academics in line he would have had some Big Ten's and other things. At the StL Shootout, everyone thought he was going to make it academically. He's 6-7, an athletic guy, can step out and pop the 15 footer, can help a mid to high major program.

Montrel Clark, a 6'10" center from Milwaukee King High School is listed in a recent Scout.com article as a Bradley target.

Only Bradley, Marshall, and Wisconsin-Milwaukee are listed as recruiting him

A recent Scout article--
http://scouthoops.scout.com/2/549791.html

It is reported that Monterale Clark may be headed to a prep school after this season. Bradley has been in the recruiting picture, but an article posted today on WisconsinHoops.net lists Marquette, Iowa State and UW-Green Bay as maintaing recruiting contact, and does not mention Bradley. Here is a link to some video clips of Clark He is very thin, and looks like he may be shorter than the 6'10" or 6'11" I have seen him listed at--

Charlie Coley is the one we want; anyone know when he will visit?

[oilerpimp]

I believe it's been reported in another thread April 13, two days after the spring signing period begins.

BTW, He is the one we want. You're right.

James Haarsma has also been mentioned before. He is a 6'7" wing player from Racine Wisconsin St. Catherine's high school. Here is a thread from Sept., 2005--

http://www.bradleyfans.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=1191&highlight=haarsma

Bradley, Tennessee, and Wisconsin-Green Bay have shown interest.

http://scout.scout.com/a.z?s=75&p=8&c=1&nid=2057048

James Haarsma, a one-time Bradley recruit, announced today he has committed to Army. He will play there for Jim Crews, a former Evansville coach. I saw Haarsma play late this season, and he had gained some weight, and was quite good at low post moves, in addition to being a good 3-point shooter. I think he will be a very good player at Army, and probably would have been successful in the MVC.

This is a premium article, but here is a little of what is said about Montrel Clark--
Montrel Clark, C, DTA Wisconsin ???‚¬??? He???‚¬?„?s been hiding and off the beaten path for a long time. The 6-foot-10 prospect is beginning to emerge. He says there are few schools actually recruiting him but that???‚¬?„?s about to change. Not always aggressive and tends to play in spurts, Clark is a talent who will thrive at the mid-major level.

Monterale Clark (older reports spell his name Montrel or Montrale) was at one time a Bradley recruit. I think Jim Les liked him, and he is a definite midmajor-major prospect, but he did not qualify for Div I.
He was reported to be considering a prep school, but apparently he has reconsidered that and has decided to attend a junior college.

WisconsinHoops.net is reporting that Clark will attend Div I juco Kankakee Community College in Kankakee, Illinois. He will likely be a top recruited juco big man in a couple years.

Another former Bradley recruit, Andre Gilbert, is closer to a final decision. Andre visited Bradley a couple weeks ago. He is now considering Kansas State according to this article--

Coffeyville is the same junior college that Anthony Slack and Boo Richardson played at last year. Both were recruited by Bradley but decided on Illinois State.

Barry Eberhardt of Coffeyville Community College, who at one time was a Bradley recruit, has committed to St. Louis University. He is new coach Rick Majerus' first recruit. Eberhardt is an undersized post player who had a lot of recruiting interest from mid-majors and even a few majors because of his impressive numbers in the tough Jayhawk Conference, but in the end, he chose SLU over Miami of Ohio and Indiana State.
