Brad is one of Tom's rugby teammates at Bennie's. He's very tall, large, and known for his epic belly flops in the Coghill pool. Brad also has a habit of hungrily checking out girls, though the other guys often joke about Brad's inability to get a girlfriend. He's one of Tom's loudest supporters during the rugby match with St. John's.
