Everyone can have a different definition of the word "solid." Personally, I think Bradley has a very solid program. That being said, unfortunately, we have not been "solid" for about 10 years.
Sure UNI has had good years and down years over the past decade, but i think anyone saying they haven't been "solid" is insane. Since 2006, UNI has never been below .500 and is 116-73 (61.4%) with an average finish of 3.4th and 4 NCAA tourney wins.
Yes they have down years, 16-15 is not a good year for UNI right now. But it's all about perspective. 16-15 would be a great year for Bradley right now. Having a 16-15 year for UNI is not ideal, but it gets balanced out by making a sweet 16 and making the round of 32 twice sandwiching it.
I think pretty clearly that in recent history, Wichita has clearly had the best program, UNI has clearly had the second best program, and then blehhhh has had 3-10.

Stay classy cdizzle
CDizzle is confusing his opinion as a proven fact again.
Just ignore him, he doesn't know the difference between the two.

Having 2 good years in a 9-year tenure is not a solid program. Bradley hasn't been a "solid" program since they traded in a coach for a stock broker.

The team has been bad. The program is fine. Just because you have a few bad years doesn't mean your program is terrible all of a sudden. We still have some of the best resources in the conference and were still second in conference in attendance last year despite our performance.
How many schools in the valley would an average level coach choose to coach at over Bradley?
