A couple recruits talk about Bradley..and more

Much of this comes from various personal sources and premium recruiting reports..

The Peoria Irish are on the road in Orlando, Florida at the 17 Super showcase..
In their 1st game Saturday, they beat Team Truth 47-44 in an 8AM game!!
Hayden Hoerdemann had 14 points, Jordan Nelson had 11, Joey Miller had 9, and Bloomington's TJ Riggs had 8.

They then went on to beat Monmouth Power 60-44 in their noon game, with Hoerdemann getting 17, Nelson 12, and Miller 12.

Today - on Sunday - they lost to Team Takeover in overtime in an 8AM game, with Nelson getting 5-8 on 3-pointers and finishing with 17. Hoerdemann 11, Miller 8, and the rest of the team as a whole shooting poorly after the long trip.
Jens Kennedy is the only player whose shooting percentage is at 50%.


The Hoop City Classic in Kansas City is where the Illinois Wolves among others are playing this weekend.
The Wolves are rolling...

Phillip Greene (2011), playing for Meanstreets, scored well and is helping their team to win. Rising sophomore Anthony Davis also plays for Meanstreets.

also in KC, Chasson Randle helped the Wolves with a 23 pt outing. Nnana Egwu is regaining form after injuries, and a kid named Jamari Traylor had this said about him...
"Will Sullivan for the Illinois Wolves can really shoot the basketball and he just finds a way to score. He showed off some athletic ability with his dunk late against Dallas Prymetyme as well."

Chasson Randle is narrowed down to just three schools, Illinois, Purdue, and Stanford, and likely will decide by end of August.


The Illinois Wolves U16 are on a tear-- they have won 18 straight games in May and have 25 straight wins since the end of May!
They play today in the Championship Game in Kansas City.
Overall records this entire spring and summers are as follows.......
The U16 Wolves 38-5 since April...Manual's Jacoby Roddy & Kiki Stokes leading the way...
U17 Wolves 38-3 after their first loss of July yesterday. (getting very little sleep since their hotel in KC also hosting a ton of teams from a girls' soccer tourney!)

The two teams are a combined 31-1 thus far in July with leader Chasson Randle and others gone much of that time playing elsewhere, even overseason in Germany!



Also --
"Traylor is just a big time physical presence that can rebound and block shots. His skills are still developing, but he makes free throws and even scored in the post a couple of times. Traylor had been rumored to be attending IMG Academy this fall, but he isn't sure if that will happen now. Dayton and UTEP have offered, while Colorado, Minnesota, West Virginia, Bradley, Indiana State and Washington State have shown interest"

Also - "Peoria Carver won their pool in the 17U division behind a solid effort from Andrew Jordan (Manual HS Class of 2011) we are told. We will catch them in bracket play today."


Anthony Davis - Meanstreets 17 - Kid put on a show on Friday, draining three pointers and scor




Cameron Biedscheid (2012) out of the St. Louis area is a kid BU was watching...
a 6-5 wing player, he's having a great summer and at first it was just Saint Louis, Butler, Detroit, Missouri State, Bradley etc...
but big schools are now starting to notice and he's starting to get interest from Illinois, Mizzou, Indiana, Kansas, and others....
I like the kid's hair........

"A couple coaches have come to see me play, like Bradley, Mizzou, Missouri State, SLU, Duquesne,” he said. “SIU-Carbondale is looking at me as well.”"

Iowa sharpshooter Josh Oglesby, once a prime target of Creighton and UNI, has now narrowed his list and will visit just these six schools......
“I’m going to take officials to Illinois, Northwestern, Minnesota, Boston College and Arizona State.”
All of those schools have offered Oglesby a scholarship, but so has his childhood favorite program, Iowa, where he's already visited many times, so they are still in the mix.


Tommy Hamilton is with his AAU team in Las Vegas, and says right now that Illinois is the only school coming on hard and they are the 6-9 sophomore's favorite.

Collin Hartman, another big guy - a 6-6 wing out of Indianapolis, has also just received an ILLINOIS offer.

Robert Goff, once a prime target for BU, is now concentrating on interest from three schools........Indiana, Butler, Purdue, although Oklahoma and Oklahoma State are in there..
He was originally a high school Class of 2008, but did not play anywhere in 2008-2009 and spent the past year at Cowley Co. juco s0 if he comes out of juco now, he will have 3 years of eligibility left.
