  • But from some things I heard last week, it sounds like Bradley is still Josh's and his mom's favorite.

    • Great news. Putting Cunningham, Yarbrough, and Sutherland together would be a great recruiting year for Bradley. It is not even counting Thomas and another one or two recruits. However, we are not there yet.

      • interesting discussion on the Indiana premium board that Cunningham wants first & foremost some assurance that he'll play right away and that he will play a wing spot and not be asked "to play inside"...

        Indiana is in desperate need of big guys and there's a sense that Cunningham might not want to go to IU since their biggest need is a big guy ...and the Hoosier fans are also bummed that they're batting "Freaking Bradley?" to land Cunningham
        BUT - we're in the exact same situation - surely he sees that he'd be one of our biggest players and that the biggest part of our returnees all play the wing as well.
        Sadly a few posters there also figure that the only way BU can still be in the picture is that "Bradley cheats" - LOL

        • The ESPN 100 has just three remaining uncommitted prospects, and the competition remains furious for their services.Myles Turner, No. 2 in the ESPN 100, leads the way, followed by No.


          Espn's recruiting experts run down their predictions for the remaining uncommitted players on their top 100 board. 1 of the 5 predicts bradley for josh Cunningham with 2 of the others picking South Carolina and the other two predicting Indiana.

          Two of the five identified bradley as one of his top two choices. The others didn't mention bradley as anything more than an also ran.
          Gotta stop feeding the trolls.

          • The guy writing for Rivals at South Carolina also just talked with Josh Cunningham and posts a new report on their premium site...
            They believe they are in good position and likely Josh's first choice.
            He also added a few other comments...
            Josh will push his decision back further for reasons noted below...
            and that he did have good time on his visit with his mother accompanying him - even taking in the spring FB game

            On his visit to South Carolina Josh "..liked everything he saw.???
            He still names six "finalists" - South Carolina, Indiana, Creighton, Bradley, Minnesota and DePaul. He does not mention St. John's who was all over him recently.

            He's also pushing his announcement back until at least next week due to school being on spring break..
            "..Pushing his announcement back due to school being on spring break.
            Indiana losing steam, Bradley is the dark horse .."


            "His coach said Monday night Cunningham will not make an announcement
            Friday afternoon at Morgan Park High School as planned because the school is
            closed this week and the gym won??™t be available.
            .... the announcement will now be made next week, possibly on Monday, but that??™s not definite at this point.
            This delay means Cunningham probably will get the chance to make an unofficial visit to DePaul before making his decision.
            The dead period this week would have prevented him from getting to DePaul before a Friday announcement."


            One other published report in the USC press talks to Nick Irvin who says...
            "...Irvan does not sense a favorite right now. ???It??™s hard to tell,??? he said.
            ???One days he likes South Carolina a lot, one day he likes Indiana a lot, one
            day he likes Bradley a lot,??? Irvan said"

              "possibly Monday" has become - definitely not Monday...
              now a few hours ago - a report says...
              "expected to announce this week, but Nick Irvin said they have yet to set a day."

              then this - now no longer even promising this week...
              "Josh Cunningham of Chicago tells us no date for his announcement has been set."

                This type of arrogant, it's all about me, behavior is becoming all too common for some of of these young men. Lebron James modeled this behavior with his ridiculous "I'm taking my talents to South Beach" drama as he strung out the obvioius for weeks. Silly gamesmanship...

                • This is a 18 year old young man trying to make a big decision in his life. He has a 100 people wispering in his ear to do this or do that. I think calling him arrogant is a little off base considering you have no idea what is going on with this kid. If he was arrogant he would have taken the highest school offer and been done with it and some folks on here would of said he made a mistake and he overshot and how much better he would have been at BU.

                    You may be right, and if that's the case my comment was harsh. This could simply be a young man wrestling with angst about a big decision.

                    • But I think you hit the nail on the head with too many people trying to influence him. I understand he is very close to his mother, who is an intelligent and successful woman, and that works in Bradley's favor. I am not saying Josh will pick Bradley, I'd actually be surprised if he does, but hopefully in the end, he listens to the people who are more interested in him than themselves.

                      • Anyone "in" on espn.com? Under college basketball recruiting they have an update titled, Top Undecided staff predictions. It would be interesting to know what they say about Josh?

                        Comment


                        • That article was from last Tuesday when we thought josh was going to announce that Wednesday still and before he visited St. John's this last weekend. At the time they had 5 experts predicting with 2 predicting South Carolina and 2 predicting Indiana. The final guy predicted bradley. Nothing was too noteworthy on their predictions or insights. No insider information as far as I could tell.

                            • (John) Stovall: Bradley
                              Cunningham has some versatility offensively and has improved this season. He started last summer as a mid-major recruit and is now being recruited by several high-majors. I think this one comes down to Bradley and South Carolina. I think the choice is the one that has been there from the beginning: Bradley.

                              This is the only guy to pick BU.

                              Joel Francisco was the only other one to even mention Bradley. He said:
                              The decision could come down to immediate playing time at Bradley or slowly garnering more and more minutes as the season goes on at Indiana. I see him choosing the more high-profile program and signing with the Hoosiers.

                              • All the hype and attention hasn't boosted Josh Cunningham's stock much....
                                he's slid from #80 in the prior Rivals Top 150 to #88 in the most recent Rivals Top 150


                                here's the old one - LINK

                                A year ago they had him at #139 - LINK
