Chris Reynolds thanks fans for the tremendous success of Tuesday's Luncheon event and for being so supportive of Bradley basketball.

here are a couple lines from the letter...


"The overwhelming attendance at this past Tuesday’s luncheon moved me to extend this heartfelt thank you
to fans and supporters of Bradley athletics. A sold-out crowd of 1,200 at the Peoria Civic Center to help welcome
Coach Wardle and me to Bradley University speaks to the passion and commitment you have demonstrated for our program.


..Few places throughout the country could replicate an event in the month of June like we experienced this past week.
We left the luncheon excited and energized knowing that the Braves faithful are 110 percent behind our efforts to
reestablish our men’s basketball program

Again, thank you and go Braves!
Chris Reynolds
Director of Athletics, Bradley University"

Another class act action by the Dr Reynolds. I believe more and more everyday that BU got it right w/ this hire. I actually believed it before it became official when it was just "rumors" clear back in February and people were getting upset because so many people already knew it.
By the way, I hadn't commented earlier but the Tuesday luncheon was absolutely awesome. I brought a gentleman that normally doesn't come to the games and he was even excited.

a true humility comes thru - that as AD he is well aware that the devotion the fans have for Bradley basketball is fragile - and it can be lost in a short time if you take it for granted and send the wrong message to the fans.
It is obvious Dr. Reynolds (like most of us Bradley fans) doesn't want Bradley playing in front of empty seats..

To whomever put up the money, or, made the call to spend BU's money, to replace Prez JG, AD Cross and MBB Coach Ford, thank you.

The addition of AD Reynolds and Coach Wardle by the BOT has been inspiring, to say the least. Good job.
