This map looks so good without that apostasy of a bird with teeth defiling central Illinois.

Yesterday was a clear political mandate to return Arch Madness to how it was before.

Someone will walk into Carver Arena for the first time tonight. They'll look up to the rows of seats that go impossibly high. The'll meet a rabid, passionate fanbase that will become their community. And they'll fall in love with the Braves forever. We are so 🅱️ack

Excuse me, a Toledo basketball program that has not danced since 1980 is too good for the Valley?

Replying to @rileylodico
I'm not even sure the Valley is good enough anymore in basketball for that to even make sense for Toledo. Might as well just go to the Horizon and be in a conference that you're a better fit in geographically.

Unfortunately I have bad news for the haters and losers. The Bully Ball Braves are indeed back.

I want the Valley to release the full preseason poll this year. If they are going to place a Brian Wardle coached team in 7th or 8th the coaches and media better say it with their chest.

In the last 11 seasons, Bradley has finished better than their preseason KenPom ranking 7 times. Including 4 of the last 5. The 4 they finished worse: 2016: Massive rebuild. 2019: NCAA first round. 2021: Covid year. Doesn’t count. 2026: Finished 2nd in the MVC.
