Dig 'em up Tornado. How foolish do we all look? I think I took the Kool-Aide route and predicted a 1st place finish in maybe one discussion. :wink:
Well, both last year and this year, the Valley was way stronger than expected,
such that even a team with 6-8 losses did pretty well.
I really believed and predicted each of the last two years that Bradley would do well enough to be
contending for the top of the Valley, and this year I predicted 3rd for BU behind SIU and CU.

By the way, probably nobody took more heat over the past two seasons for predictions than I have.
If anyone here ever goes any more to the OLD board (
the one run by the newspaper that is up for sale),
then you'd have seen the intense attacks that have been leveled upon me for my predictions
that Bradley would be good, would contend for the Valley title, and would play in the postseason....
all of which I have been consistently predicting since the beginning of the 2005-2006 season.
Add to that my predictions of Daniel Ruffin being the best point guard in the Valley,
and of Will being every bit as tough and good as Tony Bennett, and of POB being NBA caliber,
and DA being a GREAT 6th man, and Andrew Warren playing a vital role even as a freshman,
and lots of other predictions...all of which the Bradley-bashers have scoffed at and ridiclued.
