these early projections are NOT the ones that they brag are so accurate....it's the "Bracketology" that they guess when they already know how everyone has done for the season that are accurate, so as inaccurate as these early season ones are...I am not even going to click on that link.

Whelliston had this to say about Bradley during his discussion of the Valley getting 2 bids (after Creighton/SIU were discussed):

"And with schools such as Illinois State and Wichita State in the second years of new coaching regimes, and traditional powers like Northern Iowa and Bradley waiting in the shadows, the league's brass is hoping for a crooked number on the scoreboard come March."

Also, in his chat, he's apparently going to be at the UIC game:



Bob F (Chicago): Where to next after C'Dale?

Kyle Whelliston: Peoria, where I'm sure they'll be thrilled to see me.

I am glad he's coming to Peoria. I hope Bradley can play well and impress him!

Heheh. Very glad to see him. He may not be glad to see me.

Was he the guy that started the whole "Renegade Program" thing? Or was that one of the PJS guys?

[thefish7]

He called for Jim Les' firing after an underage drinking ticket was written to two of our players.

Edit- Might've been after Ruffin incident. Can't remember for sure, and can't find it now, but I'm pretty sure he went insane about the underage drinking thing.

[Da Coach]

It was just after the Ruffin incident, and a month after the TW-TCS incident- suggesting that Jim Les is running a renegade program at Bradley.

One comment on the article from someone states his 3 "big time" mid majors

1.northeastern
2.UC-Santa Clara
3.WICHITA STATE--"This team knows how to win basketball games. Great coaching and upbeat offense. Look for them to be in the sweet 16." WOW

He goes on to mention Bradley as a "maybe"

MacabreMob - Kyle at BW3's postgame! (MM will buy the first very large pint)

Is there anyone to arrange this meeting?
