For those who think Jim Les should be dismissed...you are nuts. Does anyone remember Molinari? Our program was barely an after thought under his direction. How long did we stick with him as a coach of a proud basketball tradition?

We have a coach today who is deeply attached to Bradley and will work diligently to take us back to the top. JL is a smart guy and knows how to win as an under dog. He has done so his entire life. Do not forget...we are upgrading our basketball facilities at the expense of the Field House. This too will draw more quality recruits.

Noting the "turnstyle" of coachs who have traveled through the MVC in recent years; I am glad JL is our guy.

Where do you get off talking badly about MO? I thought it was time for him to go when he did but dont disparage the job he did. "barely an after thought" the conference wasnt getting multiple bids every year and playing on CBS in the 90's. He was the COY and took us to the NCAA tournament once and NIT 5 times. Maybe you dont remember all the crap he had to deal with during his time here.

Im not saying I want him back but dont pump up Les at the expense of Coach Mo.

Great find. Coach Mo got this program to a certain level of success, but was unable to capitalize on those successes and take us to the CU/SIU level. I hope that history isn't repeating itself in letting opportunities pass us by. Next year will be telling, as the remnants of the Sweet 16 group are all gone.
