Tyshon Pickett commits to Bradley.

This is yet more good news! We will need an athletic FW to fill in for TB after this year. He sounds like a good get!
Welcome Tyshon!
 
Great news. This was the kid Geno wanted, and he especially wanted to have his two 2012 recruits commmitted and signed by this coming early signing period.
The November early signing period starts 1 week from today (Nov. 9-16)- we will expect 2 signed LOIs!
 
It's nice to know that Geno got both of the guys he wanted for next year. Hopefully he can come in and produce immediately once Taylor graduates.
 
I just found an interesting article about your new commit.

He actually had 5 years of high school...

The NJSIAA approved Pickett??™s return because 2007-08 amounted to "a lost year" for him, according to Passaic athletic director Greg Komeshok.

He missed what was supposed to be his junior basketball season, and more than two months of school. Pickett, 18, didn??™t get home instruction and thus wasn??™t credited for his junior year academically, which is why he had to repeat a year and then return to high school in September.

Kind of like a medical redshirt in high school. Weird situation but good luck to the kid!

Two football players at Washington High School did this in the mid 1980s. Sat out a year of high school because of an injury so they wouldn't lose a year of football.

So what happens if TB gets another year? Do we get an extra ride or does someone have to go?

Not a worry because it will not happen. It pretty much cannot happen, he was not injured both years that he missed, effectively ruling him out of a hardship waiver.
