    Bradley Athletics Fan Advisory Council created

    I'm pretty sure the four tall guys are (L to R)- Gustavo Guimaraes, Kyle Grill, Dimitrije Pavlovic, and Georgi Gerganov. I suspect there were other players there, too, but I wasn't there, so can't say for sure.

    Bradley Athletics Fan Advisory Council created

    One suggestion that was posted was the the Bradley team should appear at community events and meet and mingle with fans. Well, maybe that's already happening. This picture is from today's Peoria RiverFront Market, Can anyone identify the four Bradley players?

    Thanks everyone for the suggestions. The Fan Advisory Council has their first meeting next week, so if anyone can think of any more ideas to improve fan engagement or make the fan experience at games better, let us know. I'll try to keep everyone updated here.

    This is what happens if a team has a lot of NIL money

    Thanks to gifts from a couple very wealthy donors, Murray State is flush with a lot of NIL money. They have loaded up for this coming year, and now they landed one of the top rated recruit in their program's history, according to Jeff Goodman. 2027 point guard Justin Frison is from Germantown...

    Players from the past

    I was there. The other players in the photo are #33 for Bradley, freshman Anthony Webster, and #15 for Purdue, Jim Bullock, a freshman reserve guard. The entire game video is available on YouTube, thanks to Tommy. I can actually be seen for a second or two in the video after the game ends...

    Judge issues ruling that immediately makes all Class of 2022 athletes eligibile for 2026-27 - That would include Meta & AJ Smith.

    Robbie Avila's case has been dismissed on the basis of lack of jurisdiction in the Illinois courts- www.x.com/WinterSportsLaw/status/2095649767137128542 "The judge’s opinion referenced documentation that Ole Miss was prepared to pay Avila more than $2 million and SLU $1 million and inferred he...

    MVC 2026-2027 predictions

    Yeah, when I saw his article, that "viewer poll" was based one single person's entry. To be honest, I am not at all bothered by anyone who picks Bradley 10th or 11th. In fact, I'm not surprised because of the mass turnover of talent, and the fact that so few of the new Bradley players have any...

    Good news - Bradley University's incoming Freshman Enrollment

    To be fair, last year, ISU's 2025 enrollment was the highest in at least the last 15 years. The 2026 enrollment did drop by 417, but it is still their second-highest enrollment in that time period...

    MVC 2026-2027 predictions

    There are exactly 60 days until the first official games of the 2026-27 season (Nov. 2 is the start date). I've revived this old thread from April because 2026-27 conference previews and picks are starting to appear, and they reflect the uncertainty of predicting college basketball in this era...

    2026-27 Bradley Basketball Preview

    It does seem to be slowly expanding like the amorphous blob in the old Steve McQueen sci-fi movie "The Blob"- I'll see if I can rein it in a little.

    Another thing that has not been updated is the online Bradley Record book. The last data in it is from 2024, two years ago. That is actually an improvement over the years prior to that when they went from 2019 to 2024 without an update. 2024 version-...

    Coach Wardle interview in Greg & Dan this morning, Friday 8/28

    I think the same issues exist with trying to schedule the better mid-majors. I know Bradley has tried to get more on the schedule. Most come from one-bid conferences and they need to be very careful who they schedule and need to avoid non-conference losses that can be used to eliminate their...

    Transfer Portal

    I'm not sure Belmont's Aidan Noyes can expect to get another season. He was at Richmond for 3 years (Redshirted 2021-22, then played 2022-23 and 2023-24) and played 2 seasons at Belmont (2024-25 and 2025-26). So even if he is granted the current NCAA eligiblity rules, he has already exhausted...

    Bradley Athletics Fan Advisory Council created

    I'm not sure fan opinions or suggestions will have much effect on the scheduling issues. The weekend game thing, especially more Saturday (night) games, is something I have always been in favor of. Another suggestion we've seen discussed here is the bland and sometimes slow updating of the...
