Now that things are changing you have to wonder how Bradley ever got quality recruiting to come there. I know the education is first class and we have a great tradition but come on, the campus and athletic facilities are well below standard. I think all the new changes are going to make a huge difference in recruiting, you may see some 4 star recruits sign that would not have with out the upgrades. Am I off track or does everyone else think this is a big deal for Bradley basketball?

Anybody know where the women will play this coming season?

Whats the latest, I would assume that there is a vacant lot where the field house use to be? Any new pictures of construction out there?

I don't have any finals tomorrow so I'll take a walk by the Markin Center, Parking deck, and where the fieldhouse used to be and take some new pictures.

Very much appreciated dubrave5.......I look forward to seeing the new pictures.

sorry guys, due to the loss of my camera, I was never able to get pictures before leaving schools. I know that someone on another thread posted a link to a webcam overlooking where the fieldhouse used to be, and I posted in this thread a link to a webcam looking at the Markin center, even though that camera doesnt do the building justice. sorry again guys.

Sorry you lost your camera, thanks for trying. I hope you have agreat summer.

Over the past week they have pretty much removed all the foundation and remaining re-bar in the ground. I think it is being prepped for construction now.

I was just wondering if anyone knew how construction was coming on the two new buildings. I checked the webcams but it was hard to tell. If not, I'll see it when I go down to BU on Thursday, so no big deal. While I'm down there, I'll try to take some more photos with a different camera and then I'll post them on here.

The Markin Family rec center and the parking deck are coming along fine.....they are still digging the hole for the new fieldhouse and mens practice facility! By the way according to my new Hilltopics.....the new mens practice facility will be named the Puterbaugh mens basketball practice facility! Seems the Puterbaugh's donated 3 mil for the naming rights!
