What a joke. Not only was Childs missing but everyone else except Ville and Nate.

That was just awful. What happened to DB’s shooting. It was bad and seemed to impact the rest of his game 5 pts on 0-11 from the field, 3 assists, 3 TO’s and 4 fouls is just a horrible game. With Eli out and a game like that from DB we won’t beat anybody. The FT shooting was just horrible from everyone. Ville was the bright spot and I still like Stephan on the floor.

Pathetic loss! Ive been saying for a long time now that one player this team can’t afford to lose is Elijah. His athleticism,strength and leadership are hard to replace as was evident today. Also what has happened to Darrells scoring as of late? Also knowing Elijah is out why can’t Nate and Darrell become more vocal leaders on the court? Got to get ‘this figured out quick especially if Elijah is out for the full 6 weeks...

I agree with everything being stated here - an extremely dismal showing.

I could vent a lot - but I'll attempt to keep it to a minimum.

I am completely surprised how certain members from last years team are not showing up. Most specifically Darrell Brown - what is his issue? or issues?

Look at the attached Box Score from the Miami game.

A huge and likely only bright spot is Ville Tajvamaonen - his game is maturing each week.

This reminds me of last years team - that virtually crashed after last years Cancun Classic. This team is "NOT READY" to play the cream of the MVC conference - Drake and Northern Iowa. They are unable to play on the road - except for one game against KSU on a neutral court. And last years Darrell Brown can definitely out play this years version fo Darrell Brown. Why ? And why does Bradley play at home against these pansy teams - just to blow them out? This team has regressed so much - I thought they could build from last year and be well ahead of where they were last year at this time.

Good luck Bradley and Coach Wardle and Team.

[GoBU!]

I wonder if Coach Wardle has thought of having Darrell Brown getting up on Boya's shoulders and measuring the distance from the rim to the floor when we play on the road. That way DB can see that it's just the same as back home in Peoria.

DB is definitely pressing. I think he is just trying to carry this team, and I don't believe he is built for that. Ville and Gabriel need to continue to get more time. I also think Boya needs to eat into a bigger chunk of Bar's time now that he is doing his yearly regression against more physical teams.

[Mikovio]

I think DB's confidence was shaken in that Memphis game. You know he wanted it so much, tried to do too much and it was a disaster. Let's hope he finds it quick.
