Pretty impressive win for Evansville. I think they're turning a corner.

We sucked on free throws. Missed way too many at the end. But right now a win is a win. Bradley is going to win some games this year in conference play.

I would think so. Bradley looked better to me, today, than they did the last time I saw them at Roberts.

Thanks for the interest. You may be right. We are 4-5 now most thought we would have 4 wins all year.

I predicted 5 wins for the Aces during conference play. We beat In. St., Bradley, and Drake on our home floor so I doubt if we win any of those 3 next time. WSU, UNI, CU, and MSU are all likely losses next time as well. SIU is a possible win but I wouldn't count on it. Ill. St. is the most likely win next time around and after that I think at Drake may be the best chance for the Aces to get 6 wins in conference this year.

Nice job Aces, surprised you didn't win by more.

I predict 1, maybe 2 league wins for BU.

Although I keep being told that after 9 years, it might not be a good idea to make a change at this point despite possibly the worst season in school history. Hilarious.

Probably depends more on the $$$ to buy out his contract than on-court performance.

I'd buy that reason a lot more than 'players may leave' and 'recruits might leave' and 'donors will leave'. Yeah, I really am afraid of guys from an 0-9 team leaving. Our recruiting has been so great the past few years, I am really afraid of losing guys we've got LOI's for. Yeah, the who athletic department will just collapse if the donors can't watch Jim Les walk up and down the sideline in a nice suit with bad hair. Please. If those were reasons not to make a change, coaches would never get fired.

Nice suit? I commented today that Jim Les's suit looked like one my grandpa wore for a family photo in the 60s.
