This report just makes me a bit said about what has happened over the time span since Bradley was averaging 9,000-10,000 right up thru 2010.
...just 6-8 years ago these current figures would have been unthinkable at Bradley...

for multiple decades Bradley averaged 9,000-10,000 and never had a single game under 7,500...and had multiple sellouts..
All that disappeared almost overnight thanks to the previous administration. Now our average is barely above 5,000.
Hopefully better times are coming!!

sad....this report just makes me feel very said about what has happened over the time span since Bradley was averaging 9,000-10,000 right up thru the end of the Jim Les era.
...just 6-8 years ago these current figures would have been unthinkable at Bradley...

for multiple decades Bradley averaged 9,000-10,000 and never had a single game under 7,500...and had multiple sellouts..
All that disappeared almost overnight thanks to the Glasser/Cross/Shaheen debacle and the fans that begged for it and cheered it on. Now our average is barely above 5,000.
Hopefully better times are coming!!

Bradley has a way of getting rid of successful coaches and it started before Glasser and crew.

Win and they will come. Attendance jumped quite a bit in February as word got around. Interestingly, the I-74 game was the lowest that month.

I would expect the attendance to jump quite a bit this coming season. People see hope of being competitive again
