BU 3-0



Nice start so far but 3-0 is where BU should be and was expected to be .. but a few nice surprises....Taylor Brown's production already, Jordan Prosser's scoring and rebounding, and Jake Eastman's contributions.
Sadly there are still folks who can't see Jake's benefit to this team...
Prosser is ranked among the Top 20 nationally in rebounding and FG percentage, and leads the MVC in rebounding.

The faster style of play has lead to a few turnovers but oddly -- BU is still averaging at this point only 13 TO per game - still not bad and hopefully should get better.
This team is fun to watch and any good Bradley fans will enjoy them - even if they don't win the Valley....
considering everyone is picking BU last - this 3-0 start kinda has many talking that BU should do better than 10th -- duhhh....as if the gurus were blind, deaf, and dumb and didn't know who Taylor Brown was, or that DSE, WL, JE, and JP actually had some talent!

One down side - and the most obvious evidence of fallout other than the missing 3 players who would have certainly helped us this season (RA, SM, and SH) - is that the attendance thus far is the lowest at this point in the early season as it has been since BU moved to the Civic Center! Way more empty seats than even I expected....
Sure, there are a few season ticket holders who failed to renew - I expected that...but seems the biggest part of the drop-off are the supposedly loyal fans who threw a tizzy fit about the one game being held on campus and proudly "boycotted" even bragging about doing so!
There are quite a few faces that I used to see at games that I simply do NOT see thusfar this year -- some kind of fan that must be....
So much for those guys laying claim to being good fans!

But, as I have always said there are different kinds of fans - some better and more loyal -- and nice that Geno gave some kudos to the former on the radio today for supprting this team think and thin and showing up when nobody expected BU to be 3-0.
