I came across a link to this Web site on the PJStar board. It's pretty interesting and has scholarship grids (like the one we have here) for every BCS team as well the Valley.

They pick BU to finish fifth in the MVC this year, with Creighton picked to win.

They have Illinois as a Final Four team in 2011.

Wow. NO analysis; no explanations; goofiest "player ranking system" I've ever seen. What is he value of this thing?

[Stryker]

Interesting site, but I definitely think that they just looked at current numbers and names of the schools for predicting, as they pick BU 5th in 2008, 8th in 2009, and 7th in 2010. I will guarantee that those placings will NOT happen!

I think they have SIU, ISUred, and Drake highly overrated in their rankings, and pick Creighton to win the next 3 years. That doesn't happen no matter how good they are on paper.

They do have nice scholarship grids though!

Oh well, it was fun to look at...

I didn't even look at it. Who freakin cares?

I didn't even look at it. Who freakin cares?

That would seem to defy the logic of why a lot of people frequent this and other message boards.

[Stryker]

Me too, who cares. I just looked at Stryker's first paragraph and figured it would be a waste of time, thanks Stryker I wish I could bet money, online, with whoever wrote the article, that I'm not going to look at, regarding 2008, 2009, and 2010 because I would make a lot of money.

No problem- if I can save you time by wasting mine it's all good.

This is the slow time of the year for a basketball board, so I don't mind Scouter's thread. But if it makes him happy to see the Braves ranked so poorly, good for him.

Updating MVC scholarship charts

Sorry that my grids were a little outdated. I did the Valley a couple months ago and then finished the other conferences.

I told my buddy at the Sun-Times about the site and he immediately posted a link. I'm grateful for that but didn't know he was going to do it so soon (the site isn't 100% done).

I really appreciate any updates e-mailed to me and I'll try to check BradleyFans often to keep up.

Good luck to the Braves this year (I grew up a huge Hersey Hawkins fan),

Nextyear thanks for checking in. I know a lot of us disagree with your BU assessment but I can tell you this, that I believe our 2009 squad could be better then this year's team. We will miss Theron Wilson but Andrew Warren will be scary good and I predict lead the Valley in scoring his senior year. We do drink from the cool-aid bowl a bit here but we try to be as level headed as possible in our predictions.

What was there not to like about the Hawk! He was a low key guy on campus with a lot of class.

1) Speak for yourself SFP, cuz.... I don't drink from the red Kool-aide Bowl... I GUZZLE!

2) Agreed! - The Hawk WAS low key, very approachable, and full of a TON of Class!
