Has the 1985-86 team that went 32-3 been inducted yet? If not, they should go in before this team. IMO.Originally posted by tornado View Post"The Hersey Hawkins-led 1987-88 men's basketball team highlights the

The 85-86 team was inducted into the Athletics Hall of Fame in 2005-2006.
1985-86 Men??™s Basketball Team
The 1985-86 Bradley men??™s basketball team will be inducted into the Hall of
Fame 20 years after becoming the last Missouri Valley Conference team to
go unbeaten (16-0) during league play. The 1985-86 Braves posted a 32-3
overall record, tying the school record for wins in a season. The team??™s 29-1
regular-season record and 22-game unbeaten streak both were the best in
the nation in 1985-86.
With current head coach Jim Les running the show at point guard and
supported by rising star Hersey Hawkins, the Braves earned an at-large
selection to the NCAA Tournament and the team??™s 83-65 victory versus #20
UTEP at the West Regional in Ogden, Utah remains Bradley??™s last NCAA
Tournament victory. The team??™s magical season came to an end two days
later, falling to eventual national champion Louisville in the second round.
After losing to Horace Grant??™s Clemson team in the first round of the 1985
Rainbow Classic, the Braves bounced back to beat defending national
champion Villanova in overtime in the second round and Wake Forest in the
final round. The 1985-86 Braves also are remembered for a pair of length-of-
the-court, buzzer-beating plays to win a pair of road games in a three-day
period: Jan. 11 at Drake and Jan. 13 at Dayton.Comment
