After four MVC games he is averaging 11.5 points and 2.5 rebounds a game. Shooting 56% from the floor, 60% from three and 90% from the line. Of course those numbers won't continue but he has been way better than anyone could have guessed.


That is impressive.

I know the Braves are senior-less this season, but am curious - have they signed anyone for next year? If so, could you summarize? I am excited to see what kind of talent Wardle can snag in the next wave of recruiting.


The best Bradley news this season is that the top four scorers in MVC games are all new players. Three freshmen and JoJo McGlaston.

Stipanovich plays at DeSmet High in STL and Childs plays at Lee's Summit near KC. So right in the MVC footprint.

Great bloodline. I really enjoyed watching Steve S. play.

As we near the halfway point. Who does everyone have on their All-Freshman team so far. Most of the guys in the poll have done little or nothing this year.

Mine:
Shamet (WSU)
Reaves (WSU)
Brown (Bradley)
Haldeman (UNI)


I'm struggling with a 5th impactful freshman
Barnes? (ISUb)
Bar? (Bradley)

I would add Nate Kennell and Dru Smith to the list of maybes, other than that, there isn't much.

I'd go with Barnes (ISUB) as 5th player I think

Bar over Barnes for me, but it's close.

Geez, looking at these poll options now just proves that silliness of trying to predict these things at the beginning of the season.
