Vincennes University mens basketball program announced they have signed University of Connecticut 6'10 transfer Michael Bradley.

Will he be good enough to play for ISU? Pair him up w/Samuels & Kitch on the front line NEXT year...

Wonder if we'd have a shot? I don't think it's possible to have too many quality big guys at a mid-major. Well, I guess you wouldn't want 12 of 'em...

Anybody know about this kid? Saw where he had interest out of high school from Drake and VCU. Might have overshot a bit when UConn came calling?

Think his hardship waiver for immediate elegibility was denied by the NCAA so he changed his mind about sitting out a year at WKU. Not sure how many years he has left? Article says he never played at UCONN in two years there?

He could have went to DII and not have to sit out a year, why go all the way down to Jr. College?

"After his grandmother in Chattanooga was recently diagnosed with cancer, Bradley sought a transfer from UConn to move closer to home."

Sounds like he's 1/2 way into his geography major, thinking that Vincennes is closer than Bowling Green, KY to Chattanooga...someone needs to put him on the I-69 planning committee!:jawdrop:
