standout center 1981-1985 for Georgetown under the first John Thompson ?
Among his many accolades was a record setting string of consecutive starts that has stood up for 25+ years.
Until tonight.
Senior guard Bradford Burgess from Virginia Commonwealth broke that record this day in a standout career here at VCU. He'll finish in the top 5 or 10 in about all categories a guard can including rebounds (he's 6'6" and can move out to swing as needed).
I've seen quite a lot of outstanding players come through this program since we started in 1968 but local product Brad is really special. He does it all without ego, with a smile on his face and doing whatever he can to make those around him better.
Can't wait to see how far he can lead this VCU team in postseason play.
And waiting in the wings is Burgess 2.0, top 100 recruit and little brother Jordan Burgess signed sealed and delivered starting next year.
