    PEORIA, Ill. (March 28, 2006) - The Bradley men's basketball team saw its season come to an end in the NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 last week, but fourth-year Braves head coach Jim Les is still working toward the Final Four. Les joined Illinois head coach Bruce Weber, California head coach Ben Braun and Alabama head coach Mark Gottfried to tape the "Dell presents March Madness Coaches Show" Monday evening in Chicago. The show, which was hosted by Tim Brando and Marques Johnson, will air today at 3 p.m. in all markets on the Fox Sports Network, including the network's affiliate broadcast on cable systems in the Peoria area, FSN Midwest. In his fourth season at Bradley, Les directed the Braves to a 22-11 overall record and a magical run to the NCAA Tournament Oakland Regional semifinals.

        The show was hosted by Tim Brando. The first 1/2 hour featured Brando and 2 coaches, Bruce Weber and Ben Braun (Cal) discussing 2 of the Final Four teams, George Mason and Florida. They talked about what those 2 teams did to win and diagrammed some of their offense. The secone 1/2 hour Brando discussed the other 2 teams, UCLA and LSU with 2 new coaches at the desk, and Mark Gottfried (Alabama), and Jim Les. Les sounded very knowledgeable, and very at-ease on camera. It appeared to have been rehearsed somewhat, as each question to the coaches was responded to with a nice answer that fit with the theme of the discussions.

        I think any visibility like this a coach gets can only help recruiting.
