MVC Teams' records since 2018 (6+ seasons)

Can we please stop invoking the "legend" of Coach Jim Les all the time. Please! He was an absolutely AMAZING player for Bradley, and an all-around great guy, but he was a .500 career coach at Bradley and under.500 at UCD. Let's stop making excuses for him and call a spade a spade -- mediocre coach, great player.

We're in a great place now with Coach Wardle so let's celebrate that and continue to build on that. After several difficult rebuilding years he's FINALLY made Bradley relevant in the MVC the last several years.

Agreed. Appreciate his contributions as a player and that wonderful sweet 16 run. But most of us have moved on.

So you’re telling other fans what to think and what they are allowed to say?

just for reference, one more time-
Jim Les’ record at Bradley when he was allowed to have the staff of his own choosing was 102-71 with 4 post season appearances & TEN post-season wins

"Asking" is a better word. And I did say "please".
