    Funny article

    I found this unusual news item on the internet today. English Lit Professors Support Their Team! In an unusual teaming between academics and athletics, the English Literature professors at Kent State University have donned t-shirts with an image of Robert Duvall, from the movie To Kill a...

    Did the Board Approve Firing JL?

    If anyone who knows the answer to this question, please post a simple yes/no. No speculation or twisted logic messages need to be posted. I expect that there are a great number of fans who are following these events and would like to know the straight answer.

    A Jury of One's Peers - How Did Bradley Do Under Coach Les?

    Gonzaga and Butler are commonly used as measuring sticks for Bradley’s basketball program. After which, debate ensues with some posters arguing that it is unfair to compare Bradley to what are arguably the two best mid-major programs out there … even though it doesn’t seem that long ago that...

    Braves Baseball

    I've read a lot of harsh criticism of JG's head coach selection for Bradley's baseball team. Braves baseball hasn't exactly been a power house for years, yet this year's team is off to a very good start (12-6) and has beat some very good programs. Looks like the recruiting classes are starting...

    Where does Coach Les Go?

    I apologize if speculating on Coach les' future is out of bounds, but I am very curious as to where people think he might coach next. I could see him getting an assistant coaching position in the NBA. He has plenty of connections to go that route. Head coaching-wise, he could easily get...

    Additional Change?

    What about the MVC. To think that the conference champion can't even get an at-large bid (at least that seems to be the conventional wisdom regarding MSU) is pretty troubling. Is Elgin going to get this conference back on its feet? Or has he done what he can and it is the individual schools...

    4 Small vs 2 Big Lineup: Ill St Game

    It's "time" for a Mascot --- Bring in "The Clock"

    One of the things I enjoyed in the Oregon – Auburn BCS championship game was when the camera would show the mascots … especially the Oregon Duck. It’s time for Bradley to adopt a mascot. Of all the mascot suggestions that were considered a few years back, I thought “the Clock” was clearly the...

    Deus ex machina - PJS Sportswriters Replaced

    The Dec. 20th issue of SI ran a story on StatSheet, which operates 345 web sites, one for each Div. 1 basketball team. All stories are robo-generated ... no sports writers. Quite interesting and the site contains lots of interesting information. http://statsheet.com/...

    Quote from Marcus Simmons

    While I think it was a foul, it wouldn't be hard to think it wasn't a foul if I was a USC fan. Pretty classy quote from Simmons' showing a lot of maturity. "I felt like I didn't get him, but the referee made the call and I have to respect that call."...
