I was having a discussion with a devoted Bradley fan about Bradley's performance against Upper Iowa. The concern was about rebounding and how it is a reflection of desire and effort on the team. I agree that 1 offensive rebound is not good enough, but we are in preseason year 2 of the Geno Ford era and it was an exhibition. Exhibition games are meant to work out the kinks before the season starts. The exhibition provided a great deal of information on things that need to be focused on in practice. Let's look at some positives from Upper Iowa.
Remember this? This was my career at Bradley University.
1991-1992 7-23
1992-1993 11-16
1993-1994 22-8 NIT
1994-1995 20-10 NIT
1995-1996 22-8 MVC conference champion, NCAA
I have seen the rebuilding process first hand. I know it is hard now, but you have to believe in the process. Bradley will be a power in the Valley again. Go Braves!
