What would Bradley's record be if TB and SM were healthy?

I would agree 100%..."Real fan" I can tell you are a person who actually knows the game of basketball! AW did lead in rebounds last night didn't he or am I mistaken..."I'm just sayin"

I haven't seen too many people ripping AW for his game last night. He was one of the only guys that showed up, and has been for the better part of the season.

Hey Naptown! Hope things are good...AW is doing just fine!....he has been a great BRAVE!

Coachie,coachie,coachie.....really?....not even close?......

It's obviously all hypothetical...but it really doesn't matter. You never know how games would have gone. Maybe TB gets in foul trouble or a guy on the other team has a career night and we lose.

Would be a better team if everyone was healthy?.....it would certainly seem so.......but it doesn't mean we would be 7-0.

Hey there lefty...I agree its hard to really guage it....but my cup is always half full....

[BuBraves55]

I agree with most one here. 7-0 seems to be the most logical guesstimate considering Taylor is without a doubt the most athletically gifted player on the team and I'd put him at 1a. with Sam.

Just wait til we finally get a team full of healthy guys, then we just get to hold our breath for the entire season. That's gonna be a riot..

Sorry Lefty but 7-0 would be exactly right, Taylor"s scoring and rebounding would be good for at least 10 points and if you watched the games last season Taylor was rarely in foul trouble, the guy trying to guard him was the one in trouble.

to quote mrcoachdude, "7-0 without a doubt" ...

[Lakeview Brave]

Fair question - I think we'd be undefeated. I have little doubt actually that we'd be undefeated.

But considering the poor level of competition we've played thus far, even minus 2 starters, I would expect a team that was going to seriously contend in the MVC to be undefeated also, maybe 1 loss at the most with 4 games in 5 days.

As another poster pointed out, of course no one should expect the same results missing 2 all-conference players. But Bradley should have enough depth to be able to beat EIU and this year's WCU team even down 2 guys. Charron Woods is getting meaningful minutes. God bless the kid, but if that doesn't speak volumes about the serious downturn in talent and recruiting, I don't know what does.

Obviously Les has had some bad luck but so did Porter Moser and Barry Hinson. I think the larger issue is just what BB states here. What would our record be if AT was an average big man who against teams like EIU could dominate? What would our record be if WE was an above average big man? I think we would just as easily be 7-0 if either one of these guys was an all valley type player instead of non factors with or without TB and SM.

I believe this is the topic of several other active posts.. not this one.

It's all hypothetical.....you can say we would be 7-0...but there is no way to know that for sure.

What would our recored have been if Chuck B was still an asst?...who knows?

I know!! I know!! BETTER!

Which begs the question.......when exactly did JL stop listening to his assistants, as other posters have stated. Did he stop listening when CB retired?

I had to ask. We've been told that CB was responsible for our success back then (even though we're now told it's 100% JL's responsibility). We're also told that JL doesn't listen to his assistants (apparently leading to our lack of success). I'm guessing it's clearcut and JL stopped listening to his assistants the day after CB retired, but I don't know.

Of all the asst. coaches JL has had I'm guessing his confidence in CB was better than the rest. Longer relationship and probably respected more than the rest as well.

I thought the same thing when Judson left Mo. I don't think he ever had anyone after that he trusted and relied upon like Jud.

Don't think I could trust ANYONE called "Jud"...just sayin.
