I think JC's sophomore slump also may have had a little to do with his weight room work throwing off his shot.
 
I hope the administration has planned for all contingencies and will be proactive in whatever they decide and not mull this over. They either stand behind JL 100% or already have another coach in mind that they know they can grab that can possibly keep the team intact with the new recruits. Any other outcome will be a travesty to the fans and University.

Next year we will need someone else to step up besides SM behind the arc. DSE needs to continue attacking the rim so I do not see him as a viable continuous 3 point threat. I can see MK become a viable person coming off the bench. Can TB be that other guy?

That's another question that would be nice to know the answer...when does TB get his final exam and outcome his future...last I read was 2 weeks after the season?

I wanted a change but the way we played the last few games and how well the team stayed together has made me change my vote. I hope he gets another year, however we shouldn't accept anything less than a third place finish.

It was stated a while back that if AW & DD had not been injured last year, we would not have them this year. Give us SM & TB and take away AW & DD, and where would we be? It's a real shame that Bradley Basketball has fallen so much that a 3rd place finish is acceptable. Bring back the "good old days" when the MVC was respected and we expected a 1st or 2nd place finish. We will be lucky if Wichita State or Missouri State get an At Large bid.

Mo.St. and Wichita St. will be in the NIT.
 
Darn, I just got a text and was hoping it was on here and I could confirm. Was told jl was told at 8 am this morning and the tb, sm and wlj will not return.

Any report that TB is not returning at this point is a total misnomer, unless it has to do with his health.
 
Missouri St is a 5-1 dog to get an at-large bid at this point. My professional opinion.

Wichita St is in all sorts of trouble, because they're behind MSU in all possible pecking orders. And do YOU see the MVC with 3 bids?

For what reason? That's just an utterly stupid statement.

Stupid???? Please explain stupidity?

The MVC has regressed the last 5 years and I see zero vision for the future coming from his office. Time to find someone to get The MVC back to where it should be. Is there a decent TV deal on the table? Is there a vision on how to use new media to create a better brand. I'm betting The MVC's brand is at an all time low. For most institutions that would mean a reshuffle at the top.

I didn't create the statement, just repeating it. and I said that. But, IMO, after the death in Michigan, BU will never take that responsibility on.
The first part is a rumor till confirmed by someone in the media. Or, unless a couple other people text me with the same info.
