Marion and Fay are only Jr's this year and would not be at Bradley for another year? I thought they are Sr's?

[BU fan]

T.J. Marion is a senior, nice catch. user's info has been corrected.

But Carlton Fay is just a junior, class of 2007. He has 1 more year at Putman County HS.

2006
Point guard
Dodie Dunson Bloomington/Brewster Acad. 6-2, 170 Bradley, Iowa State, Nebraska, Northern Illinois, Tulsa, ISU

Call me skeptical, but I doubt that Dodie Dunson is considering ISU.

[DannyCooksey]

I doubt that Dodie Dunson is considering ISU.

I doubt ISU is considering Dodie Dunson!!!

I like seeing the competition that Bradley is facing in trying to recruit these players. Surprised by how many times Bradley and Illinois are both on a player's list.

[Da Coach]

Here is an article from the St. Petersburg Times--

http://www.sptimes.com/2006/03/08/Sports/Road_trip_may_help_US.shtml

University of South Florida head coach Robert McCullum (a former assistant coach at SIU and U of I) is working hard to fill the last couple scholarships at USF. The article mentions Chipola JuCo guard Stefhon Hannah and Southwestern Illinois forward Lance Stemler as targets of USF and also lists other schools recruiting them. They do not mention ISU or Bradley in the list for Hannah or Stemler.

Florida State is probably the leader for Hannah, and they aren't on that list either.

As I said in the original post, this long list of potential recruits was a compilation from a bunch of different sites, and I apologize for a few inaccuracies, but they are what the original site stated.
The one I should have caught was the error on TJ being a junior.

At one time a few months ago, I also recall that Boys to Men SF Marcus Relphorde (who transferred from H-F to Hales to BTMA) was considering BU, but I haven't seen nor heard anything else since. He is "reclassified" as Class of 2007 (meaning he held back a year) so he is presently a junior.
Here is a current article on him.

Here's a recent pic of Carlton Fay (Putnam Co., Class of 2007)




This photo was taken just the weekend before last at Lisle Benet Academy while Fay was playing with his Illinois Wolves AAU team in the 16-Under State Tournament.

I have heard that Fay is no longer on BU's radar.

[user1]

Maybe still on the radar, but perhaps not on the speed dial list.

[OrangeandBlack74]

I have heard that Fay is no longer on BU's radar.

I think it may be more like BU is no longer on Fay's radar. I don't think BU ever showed the interest in Fay that ISU and SIU have shown.

[cpacmel]

I have heard that Fay is no longer on BU's radar.

I have heard the radar is centered around Egyptian dogs.
