Did anybody catch the newest ESPN 30 For 30 that debuted this week? It's about Bill McCartney, former Colorado University football coach who also is the founder of Promise Keepers. As a 30-something, I'm not old enough to remember much of anything from the late 80's, so this was all new...
In terms of wins improvement, Bradley is the 5th most improved team in the nation (out of 340 D-I teams), having already won 5 more games to this point than they won all of last year. See pg 2, fact 6.

Sidenote - didn't realize...
Nice addition for Drake - Jordan Daniels. 5'8 PG who averaged 6.4 PPG (although only 35% FG) and started 25 games for an ACC team. Looks like he will have 3 years of eligibility...
Here is where I think things will shake out this season:
1. Creighton - they are about 2 notches above any other team
2. UNI - deepest team in the league, and aren't weak at any single position
3. Illinois St - this is a senior-laden team, and probably their last shot at being in the top half...
I was definitely not expecting a line that was 8 people deep over lunch today. I waited for over 30 minutes. No fault of the ticket staff...all possible windows were in use.
On the bright side, one reason it took a while was because it seemed that most of the people were buying tickets for...
Nice story by Jim Mattson from WEEK/WHOI. The one thing I have heard about Ka'Darryl Bell by somebody who has seen 2 practices is that he is "polished". There is only 1 clip of him in this video, but that term seems to be accurate. I also like Grier's quick release on his shot...

This was posted in the Murphy/Stainbrook thread but figured it was worthy of a mention.
Andy Katz from ESPN thinks it's a good idea. I do too...

Is there any precedent for a coach leaving a school for a higher level job, getting fired, and returning to the previous school? I'm...
Not to take anything away from TB's awesome shooting night or WL's best game of the season....
Hats off to Charonn tonight. The game seemed to change when they brought him in the 2nd half and put him on Antoine Young. He obviously frustrated Young and took him out of the game for a while...
Awesome turnout, awesome volume, awesome enthusiasm. You helped will this team to victory, and were called out specifically by the players on the postgame show. JP even said he wants more games on campus if the students are going to turn out in droves like they did tonight.
How can we carry...
I like to call this "Predictions Sure to Go Wrong". Using the titles underrated, overrated, surprise, and disappointment, pick a player, team, coach, or anything else related to the Valley. Mine are based on a hunch, nothing more.
Underrated: Missouri State players not named Kyle Weems -...
Our very own Shayock x2 has apparently grown from 6'6, where he was listed when he was first added to the roster a few months ago, to 6'8.
Roster
If he is really 6'8, he could be a serious game changer for Bradley, especially with that 7'2 wingspan. Geno says he plans to play Shayock...
This isn't really news, but for those of us who like to know....
DSE is changing from 32 to 1
Milos is changing from 34 to 14
Will is back to 21 after wearing 54 last year
Freshmen:
#5 Jalen Crawford
#23 Shayock
#32 Donivine Stewart
#34 Devon Hodges
#52 Nate Wells
As far as I can tell, none...
