BU recruit- class of 2012- Mislav Brzoja

[ManMythLegend]

Nice line...I can see him raining threes at the PCC.

[Bradleyguy10]

Anyone have a (realistic) ballpark probability of this guy coming to Bradley? It seems he has a chance to go higher than the cellar of the MVC but he could be the type that likes to be a main contributing factor in a basketball revival...BU won't stay down long I believe...

[Da Coach]

Sometimes playing time is more important to a kid than some other factors. Plus he has said he would like to play with his friend. Maybe those factors will be an advantage for Bradley.

So it sounds as though it's a 2 or none type of situation or am I off base?

I don't think anyone is saying this, and I doubt it's true. I think we are recruiting both individually, and maybe the chance to play together is something that appeals to one or both.

yet another recruiting site is now reporting the following offers for Brzoja
Ohio, Vandy, Utah, URI, Northwestern, Providence, Marquette, BU

..and does not mention Illinois, Texas, Virginia, and others that had been previously noted

From what I have heard and some of what I have seen he would fit rather well at BU as he is another player that can shoot the ball from 3, reminds me of when we had Crouch as it is always good to have 6-4 and above players that can shoot the 3, now lets get a center and another point guard from JUCO.

BTW -- one of Brzoja's teammates is Alex Olah - a Romanian who had previously verbaled to Northwestern
but with talk of Carmody on the hot seat is still talking to other programs...

Contrary to some reports - Alex Olah is still unsigned - and may be swayed - especially if Carmody is fired after their NIT run...

I'm sure Geno knows about it, but have we shown interest or offered? We've got opportunities for immediate playing time, but will there be a scholly available once we get through the spring...

I really enjoyed watching his passing skills in this video. He seems to have very good court vision. I would consider it to be a bit of a recruiting coup if we were somehow able to lock this kid up. Let's all cross our fingers next weekend.

[lake Camelot]

Yes that was fun to watch. If we somehow pulled him in I think we would have at least two new starters next year. Pickett and him. Fingers crossed. I am optimistic if he visits again. I just hope he doesn't change anything before the visit.

The other site is reporting Brzoja will be on campus Thursday. Roll out the red carpet!

[LittleBrave]

I would be pretty excited to get this kid. Just seems like a special talent, and that with P.T., he will just keep getting better and better.
Let's hope this Thursday goes really well for Mislav.
