I don't think we played all that bad honestly. We are not a good road team anyways and Evansville has our number at their place.
We just don't have outside shooters, but our defense was very good. We were supposed to lose and we did. Get over it guys.
We should be pleased at least with the addition of Taylor and Barnes. These guys are confident and play hard and not timid.
We need to get a new PG cause relying on Walt to score 20+ each game to win isn't going to cut it.
Onto the next game!

I expect to win tonight too!
Am I wrong? Should I stay home? because, I think if we attack Lynch and get him in early foul trouble they get real small and we can kill them from 5 ft and in.

Did anyone have a strong feeling we were going to win this last game? And I'd like to know why.

Bradley was coming off the home win over UNI, which I thought may have been our best overall game of the season, and Walt was terrific. But as we have seen all year, if we do play well in a game, we don't seem to be able to carry that over to a positive effect our next game, especially when it is a road game. Bradley has only had one 2-game win streak (the recent home wins over SIU and UNI) since the 4 cupcake games in the first 2 weeks in November.
And Bradley has not won a single road game all year. The last road win was January 2, 2013, well over a year ago.
Has Bradley ever gone over a full year without a win of any kind (conference, non-conference, road, or neutral court) away from home?

In retrospect, BU would now be tied for 3rd in the MVC if they would have dispatched EU.
Can't let winnable games get away if BU is going to climb the MVC ladder this season, and, help its future recruiting efforts..BUilding for the Future

Originally posted by tornado View PostThus when Walt Lemon finishes - we will have a span of several years before we start getting more 1000 pt scorers...
Since the year 2000 (Dye, Gilbert, Gillingham, Granger, Tucker, Ruffin, Cellus, Crouch, Warren, Maniscalco, Wilson, Taylor Brown, DSE, WE, now Walt...) we've had FIFTEEN players either hit the 1000 point career mark or come very close...but as we sit right now - we won't be seeing it again soon, and maybe not for several years...we've kinda hit a lull in scorers on the roster...
In the interval of a year - several have said maybe Swopshire, Zecevic, Xavier Taylor, Mike Shaw, Grier....and others would have a shot at hitting the BU 1000 point mark..
so now fast forward half-way thru 2014-15....
now it quite apparent that nobody who will finish in 2015 or 2016 will hit 1000 points unless either Ka'Darryl Bell or Omari Grier average 15-20 points or more for the next year and a half...
..and the only way any of our freshmen or sophs would do it is to also boost their scoring to 12-15 ppg or more....just don't see it....with the remote possibility that Josh could get to that 10-12+ ppg range and possibly still play 100 more games.....
we are, as predicted, at least 5 years away from anyone becoming our next 1000 Point Club scorer...
