Offense

[Da Coach]

Bradley's offense has been bad all season, but it keeps getting worse.
The Bradley team scoring average is now down to 57.8 points per game. That is the worst in the MVC.
The Bradley team scoring average is the 338th ranked in all of Division I (351 teams).
Bradley's shooting percentage of 37.4% ranks a distant last in the MVC, and now ranks 339th in Division I.
Bradley's 3-point field goal percentage is now 31.8%, which is actually worse than their MVC-low 3-point % the last 2 seasons.
Bradley has scored in the 50's or lower in 12 of their 18 games; in those 12 games, they are 2-10.
Bradley has scored in the 40's six times, and they are 0-6 in those games.

Bradley's RPI after last night's game is now 274- if the season ended today, that 274 RPI would be the worst RPI in the history of Bradley basketball.
Bradley's RPI's the last 4 seasons:
2014-15 274
2013-14 265
2012-13 191
2011-12 266

To show you how truly bad our offense is.....

Only TWICE since 2006 has any team averaged less than 60 point per game - and both of those were in the 59.5 ppg range....

NO team since the 2005-06 ISU Redbirds has averaged under 59 ppg....

That's 10 teams each year for the past TEN seasons - 100 different teams - since the last time a team was this woeful offensively...

BUT -- remember - the Strength of Scheduling for all those teams was also WAY better - so our woeful 57.8 ppg is actually deceptively high since it's been against a terrible slate of opponents -

If we remover just the one game we scored in the 80's against DIII Eureka - then our scoring average drops to just 56.47!!



That explains a little why our Athletic Director sat there last night the whole time with
the deer-in-the-headlights look as he observed the thrashing we suffered.
