Bradley Train Wreck

[TheAsianSensation]

It's all speculation at this point. I don't think anyone except those on the deep inside know the exact timetables.

In an ideal world, we'd have the new AD in place by next month, naturally.

Bradley WILL have a new coach in 2015-16.

The situation is wholly untenable.

No doubt needs to happen--but it would be very costly and we are deficit spending--Since things are sooo bad (and will get worse before they get better)--it might make sense to save a bunch of $$ next year and move back on campus (since our contract with the civic center is up)--get our own parking and concession money etc ( and have the $$ to pay off Ford's contract) and play in a packed house on campus--then maybe the civic center would lure us back with a better $$ deal when we get back on our feet??

You really think the place will be packed on campus? I highly doubt it if Geno is still around!

Since Glasser has "retired" I believe we will have a new AD at least by summer (hopefully sooner!) I agree a new coach should happen immediately--but due to the $$ we owe him coupled with our financial issues--my guess is that in spite of the demand to replace Geno--he is back for one more year (hope I am wrong!) I also doubt we relocate back on campus--but--IF we did--I have zero doubt that we have more than enough of us older/loyal fans who would pony up the maintenance fee(s) and purchase season tickets to fill most of the seats--and more students would show up at a campus arena--even with a sub .500 team and lame duck coach. Just my opinion---but it is shared by many of my BU friends. I would rather attend a full RC to watch a game vs 2-3K downtown--but again--my guess is that Geno is back and we return to the ice rink

My guess (and hope) is that Geno is not back and we return to the ice rink.

Dave Reynolds is reporting on twitter that Anthony Fields is out for the season... torn meniscus.

For those keeping score at home, a recap of injuries and punishments since last spring:

-Omari hip surgery
-Jones broken hand
-Barnes suspended
-Morgan broken rib
-Shaw sprained knee
-Xzavier broken foot
-Josh knee surgery
-Amerson ineligible
-Tramique broken hand
-Jones broken foot
-Morgan high ankle sprain
-Thomas suspended
-Jones suspended
-Bell suspended
-Grier suspended
-Fields meniscus

By all means, the injuries are NOT an excuse, but for a program that has failed to build depth successfully since 2007, they have not helped things very much.

How can you not feel for this fan base? Yikes. I think we keep wanting to say it can't get worse, but that feels like more of a jinx than anything these days.

Exactly. I'm sure Geno went to bed after the Drake game thinking "how could it possibly get worse than this". He may have gotten a few hours sleep that night before getting a phone call that his leading scorer had been arrested.

That list includes literally everyone on scholarship at BU this year except for Nate Wells.



Every player except for him and Cunningham have been unavailable for at least 1 game this year. Whether their fault or not, 11 of our 13 guys have not been there every day for this program.

Jimmy must have a Glasser Voodoo doll or something. Once a Brave. . .
