As they have time together on the court things could change from where they are right now. I'm not a Bradley fan but if I were I wouldn't give up on this season yet. Still a lot of water to flow under the bridge yet.
I like your optimism. Unfortunately I don't share it. 7 days shouldn't end a season, but losing to 3 hyphenated schools in 7 days sure makes it feel like the season is over. I just can't find any instance in BU history where a team has had such horrific home stumbles and come back to have a respectable season. Even in our toilet bowl years the stumbles to inferior competition were mostly on the road or neutral court. I thought last year we were finally past the horrific home losses. It's an opportunity to make history I guess. Staying out of Thursday would be a successful season at this point IMO. My God has the last decade lowered the bar at Bradley.
