They hired a coach about to give fired from Iowa State and hadn't recruited a single player on UNI's roster

Creighton was also surrounded by public schools doing well. WSU, UNI, MSU, SIU. One time Bradley did well. One time Drake did well. Other than that?

That's a heck of a plan by Rassmussen. "Greg, go to Iowa State for four years of mediocrity. By then, Altman may take a power-5 job and not turn around and come back the next day. If that happens, we'll need you waiting in the wings."

:? :huh:


You forgot the part where Oregon would have to get to their 12th choice after a gang-rape scandal and his daughter's husband taking a job in Portland.

But yeah, they totally poached Mac...

Nothing like poaching a coach from a school 1,498 days after he was last employed by said school and had actually coached 4 games AGAINST said school....

Sure showed UNI who was boss on that one.

I understand being upset about this. I also think it's why there is hope for Bradley to be good at basketball again.

Bradley not winning more is part of the problem in the Valley. Bradley not trying more is not part of the problem in the Valley. IMO, the latter is more frustrating at several institutions in the league.

Actually it is. Despite 2 successful years, the Jim Les era was absolute garbage, and many couldn't separate the player from the coach, and actively defended the dumpster fire that the program became. In short, the school and the vast majority of the fan base lowered their standards. Once you do that, it's hard to get it back.

Bradley has given a half-ass effort for most of this century and it's reaping what it sows.

But...Les had a wildly successful string of recruiting which ultimately lead to a Sweet 16 and four straight 20 win seasons. Following the 20 win seasons the train fell off the tracks.

You are obviously unaware that it was in fact an assistant coach who was responsible for that Sweet 16 team! ;)

Bradley's problem isn't for lack of resources, or lack of trying. It's just plain old failing.
