    2026 and beyond recruits

    Not suspended but end up doing a prep school year or going juco- happens commonly Bradley has had players who were expected to come for summer but couldn’t because they still had to complete courses, plus schools differ on academic requirements- which is why a bunch end up at New Mexico State.

    2026 Commit: Race Kowalczyk
