[Big Mike]

murph........it MR wants to go elsewhere..so be it.......the way this staff recruits they will come up with someone very good no-matter what!

[BuBraves55]

I agree Big Mike. Enjoyed seeing the Jimmy to Hersey replay in Dayton. I remember when Jim was hired he told his players if they didn't hustle for him they would go back to wearing the uniforms they were wearing then. It worked.

that would definatally inspire me in the opposite way

thanks for the links, I always love reading the opponents coverage after a big win!

Here is more-
this is a link to page 3 of the VCU message board with some post-game talk. The VCU fans really were impressed by Bradley--

I guess this means Dave Reynolds missed another PJS pick by again picking the Braves to lose this game! This late in the season you just have to go with your team!

Yea....if Dave Reynolds simply picked Bradley in every game, he'd be 19-10, better than the 18-11 he has now.

And if he just blindly selected BU to win every home game and lose every road game he'd have been 19-10.

That first Richmond article really praises the way Bradley was coached and disciplined.
JL for COY!!!!!!

I loved their message board....."someone guard that Jason Priestly looking guy"......

NICE game jas..uh er Jeremy.

[Da Coach]

I don't think so.....

Yeah, I noticed that too. SIU fans called him Harry Potter! Is Jeremy a theater major? He's well on his way to stardom ! One statistic that proved key in last night's game was free throw shooting. While not great for Bradley (14 of 21), we still outscored VCU from the line 14-3. Crazy that we only surrendered 8 free throw attempts on the road!

[Da Coach]

I think that is a great example of how different things are and always have been called in the MVC. The officiating in the MVC is a joke. Every little touch is a foul, and the refs try to keep the foul counts even, so Bradley, which is nowhere near the most physical team in the Valley, gets a ton of those ticky-tack calls just to keep the foul numbers even.

It's not a coincidence that when they play out of conference, they suddenly don't foul nearly as much!

[andypt7]

Just to counter your point, doesn't the road team bring officials from their conference in bracketbuster games?

At any rate, the return game next year should be fun.
