...so what is it???

[Da Coach]

He is an outstanding wing player, so height is not so important, but I hear he is 6'7". He is probably going to receive a lot more big-school offers.

He is ranked by everyone in the top 10 recruits for 2014 in Illinois
Rivals ranks him #139 nationally in the class of 2014

As usual none of the recruiting sites mentioned Bradley.

ESPN now associates him with BU. List him as 6-7, 180 lbs. Power Forward, 3-star, rated 78. 13th in Illinois for the class.

Also show DePaul, Nebraska, and Oklahoma with scholarships out to him.

Morgan park is the real deal and is rated # 1 in 3a. The Peo Sect. winner goes to Dekalb next Tues to play the Freeport Sect. winner and that winner gets Morgan park in the semi's next Friday. Hopefully MP gets here so Josh can play on the floor we hope he plays his college ball on. Go MP.

Morgan Park is alma mater to Adebayo Akinkunle and several other good MVC players

"Cunningham broke down his recruitment.

“It is going pretty good. I have offers from Bradley, DePaul, and Oklahoma.”
Bradley is a school that has aggressively pursued several players from Morgan Park including the forward.
“If I come here I feel like I am around family. I like the environment.”
What was it like playing in the state tournament on the floor of the Braves?
“It was nice. I like the fans and the court.”

The hometown Blue Demons are also very interested in securing his services.
“I like DePaul. They are like family. I feel like I will be safe with them.”


His other offer comes from the Oklahoma Sooners out of the Big 12.
“I like the way they play.”

Cunningham mentioned a few other schools that are showing interest in him.
“Michigan State, Iowa, and Massachusetts.”
He plans on taking an unofficial visit to Michigan State in the near future."

This kid really has game. Saw him both games last weekend and would love to see him in a BU uniform. Geno has his work cut out for him with the schools that will be going after him but we can hope can't we. He is a solid 6'7" .

Having Ron Coleman as our recruiter in Chicago should help

[Da Coach]

2014 BU recruit Josh Cunningham of Chicago Morgan Park HS now has an offer from Chris Collins and Northwestern.-

[mexicobufan]

Hopefully he is close friends with Xzavier as they went to the same high school. It seems Bradley was on him early and with Coleman on staff I think we have a chance at this kid.
