I'm convinced...

TOB is actually quite positive right now. A lot of people applauding the hard work, realizing BU is out-manned, and still hoping that the work turns into W's.
I know...but that's because many were ready for Les to go.
understand I'm not talking all posters....but some definitely.
I won't deny that. I was one that was ready for the move. I think GF and this group of guys is going to take heat for the JL firing until they turn a corner.
GF is a big boy though, and it comes with the $ and job. I am sure he will keep the guys focused and working hard.
I can't speak for all, but tonight our assists were much better. We limited out TO's to 13 and we did actually outrebound them.
Small things, to be sure, but it is something.
Tonight our D and defensive rotation killed us though.
This is my issue. I REALLY hope GF succeeds. I just haven't seen anything at all that we do better or any reason to believe were moving in the right direction. I really liked our D the first 3-4 games but that disappeared quickly.
And I think that's how this season is going to go.......particularly because of lack of depth.....one game we will make ft's and then we won't....we have had games where we rebound well and others not so much....we are going to be inconsistent....and that's hard to watch sometimes
+1
What are we...15 games into the season, and I am still trying to figure out if Geno is worth his contract. I noticed some changes on offense tonight that I thought were beneficial though, but our defense certainly has declined.

Positive spins ... negative spins ... old coaches ... new coaches ... here's the depressing fact:
Bradley has lost 30 of its last 43 games.
That's just really sad as a fan. Is this what it's like to root for Evansville?

It's not really wise to cut up other programs. I've been reading on this board for the last few months how bad SIU was and how the Braves would have 2 easy wins when playing them.

Yeah, no smack talking about other programs after this one.
Unless it's about ISU's SoS. That's always allowed.

I think it's way to early to be wondering in Geno was a bad move. Les didn't prove he was a good move until his 4th season.
This year's team reminds me of Les' 04-05 team. A bad season with lots of newcomers. Lots of guys taking bad shots or just driving because they had the ball. Not very much team play on offense or defense. But the next season we went to the Sweet 16.
The experience now will pay off in the future for the new guys just like it did for Les' 05-06 and 06-07 teams, which were his best. Although Les didn't lose any key guys that year and Geno will lose TB, so it will probably be a bit more difficult for Geno.

Why worry if he's worth the contract this season at all?....we need to give it a few years....just like we did for JL.

I think we need to be realistic and its hard when we see what Geno has been left with. Its very apparrent why we were picked last for two years in a row. There is alot of work to do and thats why schools that force a change are in that position. With what Geno was left with its not gonna be a quick change. I think we are looking at 2-3-years at least.If we are still struggling after all of JLs players are gone then maybe we hired in error.This is hard to watch but thats what Geno stepped into. It's gonna get better but not for several years.I hope
