bradley is generally considered to have brought in the top class of mvc newcomers. well, hell, where would wichita state rank on the mvc newcomers list? this looks like possibly marshall's best class ever to me.. legitimate talent, in numbers at that (nine newcomers?).

Who said Bradley had the best class???

I'm guessing it came from the Bradley message board... probably from the moderator

They do have two consensus 4*, top 100 players coming in; one transfer from Illinois, and one true freshman. Additionally they have three highly touted JUCOs and a 3* freshman as well.

Can't wait for Zach Brown to light those guys up.

Seriously, though, good news for Bradley--glad to hear it.

Here's Bradley's full recruiting class…it's presented by a Braves fan, so it is rose-colored in nature, but 100% true.

Offers included: Indiana, Minnesota, Missouri, and Oklahoma among others. He averaged 22 points and 15 rebounds and nabbed a couple of Illinois state titles during his high school tenure.

Good for Bradley, but we just went toe to toe with the greatest recruiting class ever and could have won the game at the end. Bring it on.

Mind you, I don't expect BU to finish in the top 4 this year, but you got to start somewhere, and this is a pretty good place.

All personal bias aside, I'm really happy to see Illinois State and Bradley bring in a high level of athleticism and size. They seem to be recruiting a similar style of player to WSU and are a cut above the rest of the Valley in caliber of athletes entering the program.

[wufan]

Also, Zach Brown is VERY good.

[WSUwatcher]

Good luck to Bradley -- they have a program and history that should enable them to be a force in the Valley, and they need to get back on the right track. Meanwhile, I'm happy to see Zach Brown getting ready to wear the Shocker colors.

[Blackmag]

Im glad Bradley is getting back on track...we need teams in the Valley to take our lead and help build this league into a multiple bid league again.
