Bradley’s first experience in a closed scrimmage environment — Saturday afternoon at Carver Arena against DePaul — was an excellent one, BU coach Jim Les said.
“Overall, I liked the concept and the way it was structured,” Les said. “It’s nice to play against someone other than ourselves. I expect we’ll learn a lot about ourselves after watching the film.
“Some things we liked, some things we need to improve on. It was a great experience and would like to do it again down the road.”
NCAA rules prohibit Les to publicly discuss specifics of the scrimmage regarding scoring and individual player performances.
But he is allowed to talk generally about his impressions, much like discussing a team practice.
“Everybody played and we used all kinds of different combinations,” Les said. “Everyone got into a good flow, but we could also stop (the action) and address things out on the floor. It was split into segments and lasted a little longer than a regular game.
“We came away with a good understanding of things we need to clean up. It was a good chance to find out who we are.”
The Braves’ first and only public exhibition game is next Sunday at 2:05 p.m. against Lewis at Carver Arena.
