Shots not falling for us in the 1st half. Bradley tough in the paint. Not a good combination.
Embrace the pace of the race.

Can anyone find any information on what JD had to say about this game? I would be interested to see his comments.

The game write-up in the Macomb paper did not have any comments from JD.

Have you ever been buried like this on the playing field? Nothing goes right from the first minute. Players end up trying to take things into their own hands only to have things get worse. Basically the second string played most of the 2nd half and that made total good sense to me. I am sure they were embarrassed and sat on the bench just hoping the game could be over. How you handle the discussion afterwards is probably going to help determine what happens for the rest of the year. Bobby Knight would handle it with discuss and put down language. George Clouston, who was my head freshmen football coach turned on the stadium lights and made us run the length of the field, and carry our teammates up and down a short hill just to make a point I guess. Not sure it helped make us better players. The Assistant Principal came out on the field and told us to go home after a heated argument with the Coach. I guess there was nothing left to say. Can't blame him for that! ;) jc

This article from today's Western Courier has some comments from JD:
Women’s basketball loses big at home against Bradley Braves.
