Bell will be visiting Bradley's campus and the visit is scheduled for Friday -- there'll probably be some further writeup about it ...

We will definitely have more about Ka'Darryl Bell's visit. We are hoping to hear some good news before the weekend is done.
 
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.
We might be hearing some good news today.

Ka'Darryl Bell giving Bradley a verbal committment late last night=GOOD NEWS

Congratulations the Bradley and to Ka'Darryl Bell. I hear he is a great kid from a wonderful family. He is also a superb student.
And thanks to our source(s) for keeping us informed and allowing us to be the first site to predict this!

Now let's sign a big man!
 
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.
 
LOI Day for 2012 can't get here soon enough!

Congrats to BU and Coach Ford/staff with this commit..Big time!

Welcome to BU KDB!! You will never regret it! :D
 
LOI day comes before high school playing season even starts - so if KB was going to be getting someone in his ear -- I think it would have already happened.

I have a hunch we might also see one other LOI by November

Just for reference -
Letter of Intent signing dates...
Early Period: November 9, 2011 through November 16, 2011
Regular (Spring) Signing Period: April 11, 2012 through May 16, 2012
 
Just wondering what some of the experts on this board thoughts are on Mr. Bell as far as starting as a true freshman?

PG - Bell ?
SG - DSE
SF - Pickett ?
PF - Prosser
C - Egolf ?

6th man Walt great energy of the bench.

with Eastman and Shayok right behind.

Just curious.

Here's an actual video of Ka'Darryl Bell' first game-
http://bradleyfans.com/vb/showthread.php?p=242528#post242528

Ka'Darryl's Oak Park squad easily knocked off Prospect HS and U of I commit Mike LaTulip (an AAU teammate of Ka'Darryl) 77-65
The scoring was evenly distributed, five players in double figures, and Ka'Darryl shared the ball nicely - finishing with 12 pts plus 4 assists & 4 steals...

Tonight they play Senn at 6PM - Senn HS lost Wednesday night to St. Pat's 71-19 so I have to think tonight's game will be a laugher!
Then Saturday night the finish up the tourney against St. Patrick's HS at St. Pat's @ 7:30PM.

If you want to follow the St. Pat's Tourney - here's an easy web site..with videos and close-to-real-time score updates...
This will be valuable to watch Ka'Darryl play on Saturday...

OPRF is then off nearly a week and play their first home game next Friday, Dec. 2 @ 7:30PM
