Ka'Darryl Bell is having a great visit and stayed over to today. I am hearing he and his family love Bradley. He is a super quick, great passing point guard.

Great article.

It has been confirmed to me that Ka'Darryl Bell had a strong offer from Iowa. He was Iowa coach Fran McCaffery, and assistant coach Andrew Francis' top choice as a point guard target for 2012. He also had offers from Ohio and Drake.

Here are a few more links to good articles about the newest Brave Ka'Darryl Bell-

I also have heard from sources that say he was impressed with the facilities and personnel at Bradley --
This kid plays at a high level at a big school that has produced NBA players...and he's on track to be one of their all time best players
I think he will turn out to be as good as any point guard in the Illinois Class of 2012...

Kudos to Da Coach for again breaking the news first on the newest recruit Ka Darryl Bell..Da Coach said he felt good about this and we would know before the weekend was over and we did..great reporting and keeping us all informed..that why this site is top notch for Bradley Fans. Thanks guys

Again congrats to Geno Ford, Willie Scott and staff for pulling this one off. This was a tough get for a kid who is viewed as the top or second best PG left on the board(Orris). His upside is good..Great vision, first step and nice 12-15 ft pull up jump shot..If you can take a kid who has big 10 offers and convince him to come to Bradley in 2011 then you are doing something...Not trying to look ahead but if we get a juco big this year who will start..next year maybe a good year..juco big, prosser, dyricus, walt, shyok, bell, egoff, ds...not bad team there.

I am crazy pumped about this pick-up. Great get, Geno and co.!

Welcome to BU, KB!
