Bears Recruiting

With 9 scholarships to fill, the Bears have started the process with 3 commits since Cuonzo Martin's hire . Two transfers and a HS prospect have committed to the Bears so far. Included:

Vincent Brady II, 6'4 Junior guard transfer from IUPUI; averaged about 10 ppg over his first 2 years there. Physical wing type player.

Sam Murray II, 6'9 Junior forward transfer from Murray St. Hasn't played much for the Racers, was originally recruited by Zo at MU as well.

Zaxton King, 6'2 , freshman combo guard, Lawrence, Kansas. High scoring guard , but not a lot of attention in recruiting process. But not uncommon for HS seniors now.

Bears still need alot, especially on front line, and also a point guard or 2 would be nice. Still waiting but becoming less hopeful about returns of Mayo and Edwards.

Bears add 2 today: Wesley Oba is a 6'8 5th yr transfer from Delaware St. Averaged 6 ppg, 6 rbs. Looks like veteran bench help. The second is Mozae Downing-Rivers 6'6 starting pg for Juco national champion Barton CC. Averaged around 10 ppg and over 5 assists over 2 seasons. Didn't have as productive a soph season as frosh, but they did win the natty.

Big pickup today for Zo and the Bears, 6'6 Jurrell Baldwin, out of Hyde Park Academy in Illinois. Staff's Chicago connections paying off early .Baldwin an athletic wing who plays defense, can handle, and shoot the trey.

Bears add one of the more unique juco players in Michael Osei- Bonsu. He goes 6'5 , about 265 and is a real load down low. Played for Vincennes Juco. Averaged right at 12ppg and 10 rbs. We needed to add some girth down low , lol.
