Big-bodied, glass-cleaning forward who brought hustle and rebounding to Georgia Southern
In his Georgia Southern season, B.J. Gladden was a 6-foot-6, 210-pound forward who gave the Eagles toughness, rebounding, and reliable minutes off the bench or in spot starts. As a junior transfer, he averaged 5.5 points and 4.2 rebounds in 20 minutes per game, with six double-figure scoring nights and four games leading the team in rebounds. Earlier at Eastern Florida, he posted 11.7 points and 9.7 rebounds per game, showing a strong nose for the ball and physical interior presence. He looks like the kind of player coaches trust when they want effort, size, and second-chance battles.
