Bradley opens the 2013-14 season with a home game Friday, Nov. 8 at 7:00 PM at the Carver Arena against Jacksonville State.
There is no broadcast TV for this game, but it will be the first game with video streaming available. It will also be on 1470 WMBD.
The Jacksonville State Gamecocks are a member of the Ohio Valley Conference, and they are located in Jacksonville, Alabama. Last year they had possibly their best season ever since moving to Division I, and their best season record-wise (17-11, 8-8 in the OVC) since 1999-2000, when Mark Turgeon coached them to a similar record of 17-11 as a member of the defunct Trans-America Conference before he was hired by Wichita State.
Their RPI last year of 151 was the best they have ever achieved. They are coached by James Green.
JSU played their first exhibition game 10/31/13, a 62-52 win over Division II University of West Georgia. They tied for last place in the Gulf South Conference last year.
They play one more exhibition Monday night (11/4/13) against NAIA Martin Methodist College.

They lost their top scorer and top 2 rebounders from last year's team, but they return 3 of the top 5 scorers.
Jacksonville State starts 3 guards, including 6'3" junior guard Darion Rackley, a St. Louis kid that Bradley had some recruiting interest in at Christian Brothers HS. He lead them in scoring in their first exhibition game with 15 points. He is their leading returning scorer. He averaged 13.7 ppg last year.
The other 4 starters in that exhibition game were 6'8" junior forward Jamal Hunter, a juco transfer who had 10 points in the exhibition game, 6'6" senior forward Nick Cook, who had 9 points, 6'1" senior guard Brian Williams, who had 6 points, and 6'3" senior guard Rico Sanders, who had 4 points.
