Always a Brave team in FINAL FOUR of The Basketball Tournament

[Da Coach]

One mystery- A.J. Guyton said on his post-game interview that he could only go 8-players deep. Yet the team had 9 players. Phillip Gilbert played just 3 minutes despite the massive blowout win. Gotta believe he was injured?

Over 200 people online at BradleyFans at 10pm on a Saturday in the off-season - I'd say Bradley fans are pretty loyal!!

There are clueless "experts" who claim they are all phony "guests" created by me by logging on hundreds of times under different names
Or that they all represent spammers!

(Fact- just for Those Artificial "expertS", we block 100% of spammers with our website cloud management service, so every one of the people who show up as online are real people).

Braves fans are the greatest! And, Bradleyfans.com is clearly The #1 Site for Bradley Braves Fans!

[tornado]

yeah- I just checked another site and half their count are bots and spammers..

Jim Les sounds pretty proud of his guys- he just tweeted this-

he'd have loved to be in Philly with his guys but I just got a text that he's in Las Vegas recruiting..
wouldn't surprise me if we had a coach in Vegas as it's one of the hottest spots in this last week of the July period

The 27 point blowout win by Always a Brave was, by far, the biggest margin of victory in the 8 Super 16 games. Most of the games were much closer, though none of the 8 games were nail-biters. The next biggest margin was a 16 point win in the first game Thursday

Let's hope the Braves can keep playing at this high level!

That was an impressive win. Great game.

Btw... I check in on this site daily, every day, at least twice a day and often times more than that.

So according to other posters from another board... I am a phantom.

[Dub]

Awesome. What a fun game to watch. We really wore them down. 70% fg shooting in the 2nd frame! We really owe these guys a debt of gratitude for what they are doing repping BU right now.

And at the same time, our current roster can be inspired.

And just to be clear.... I check that other board MAYBE 3-5 times a YEAR!

[Da Coach]

Macab...I hear from hundreds of people like you, most of whom never post, but rely on this site for information about their favorite team and players. Especially now that there seems to be a complete blackout of any coverage by the Peoria Journal Star.

We have continued to get 2500-3000 unique visitors every day, and more than 20,000 unique visitors every month in the off-season and twice that many during the season!
Our page-views continue to increase every month over the same month/previous year, and ad revenues are at all time highs.
So fan interest may have been a little dormant thanks to the last administration, but the fans are still there.

everyone sees it - that Bradley is a fine program and a fine school and is on the way back -- just had a few bad years caused by "THE KARMA" that resulted when the admin "wrongfully fired Jim Les"...

those are Dan Dakich's words - on the broadcast.....not mine...

Ok, we got it. In Tornado's obituary we will make sure to include that you were a justice warrior for Jim Les and that your passion for Jim Les was unflappable. Great, now can we get back to the fact that it's 2016.

[JC]

Yeah, I'm also one of those who checks in many times a day, but I don't post much any more. This place is great. It is as good a fan site as any including a lot of ones for the big schools that are run by full time writers. Thanks and keep up the good work. Bradley should be happy to have such a positive fan page to keep fans informed and interested.

Two of Marquette's better players are former Bradley recruits (and one actually commited to BU if I recall correctly.)

Dwight Buycks

and

I was just reading through the thread and saw this was mentioned already by a couple guys..... I did not know Marcus Jackson was on the Marquette alumni team, he was 6'6" when I was 5'8" at Mark Bills middle school.

[Da Coach]

It should be a great game tomorrow night. Another prime time national TV broadcast for Bradley! I wish I had gone with Dubl R 1!

Tornado, looks like you struck a nerve with someone who doesn't like to be reminded of the years when there were still 10,000 fans at Carver. Keep it up. Coach Les was the coach for most of these players and the more credit he gets, the better. Even though the JL haters won't like it.
