Tyrone Bradley fort high school at
one of the Jtudenti in the top 20%
of his dass. Hit grade point ■cartas
was a 3 0 all of his tensor year And
since he hat bean here at Fresno State
has been trying to continue dw tame
Accordine to Coach Cram 'He
attended all classes vary responsibly '
Tyrone does hit best in all his classes
iust as he dad m high school But the
basketball player in him is just ss di
dedicated Grant-said 'He has intelligence on the court "
Tyrone sometimes acts at if he were
tne coach on dw floor Hit other
attributes include good ball handling,
exceptional pastes, dutch playing and
a tremendous attitude Yet the Coach
likes him because of 'hit great desire
tcrwtn .'
Coach Grant says dw reason he
recruits from Chicago is because they
have a lot of coaching contacts back
there.  'Therefore,we can gat the word
on good players there.'
Tyrone says it makes him feel s lot
better when there are other player on
the team from Chicago    Art Williams.
Rod Higgins. and Bobby Anderson ore
also players on the team from Chicago
He says 'If I ever get started to thinking
about Chicago and talking to people
about the city, there are three people
who know what  I'm  talking   about '
He likes the etmoopnere on dw
basketball Warn beceaate 'all the plaveex
I met srt frWndy '    'Any little thing
I don't know or understand they art
willing to explain ao much os thsy
know '   The coaches have helped him
tremendously since they stress more
then   just   basketball        In   Tyrone's
words.   They teach you  about  life '
Tyrone says the coach reminds him
of Herb Brown hit high school coach
Even-though he hasn't been in Fresno
long he says 'I like Fresno vary wall,
it it s big adjustment from  dw dty
but I think I made it already '    He
doesn't have eny thought on Fresno
yet,   bacauw 'he
With sil that Tyrone hat got going
for him he should be able to boost the
already talented basketball team
Because ss Coach Grant says 'Hot

In the fall of 1978, Bob Padilla set
his first squad of Bulldogs loose in
Rstdiff stadium I kept s long wary
eye on the Dogt last yeas, but much to
my sorrow the Bulldogs recwved more
punishnwnt then they gave. I'm
afraid big Bob had little to offer this
football starved populace The road
to s championship i est on it iust at long
os the road to mediocrity Often the
difference betweem s winning team and
a loser it the mental strength of the
duel Rout for dw number one quarter
back position, when spring ball was done
Yancy knew in his nond that he had
beaten all oampsfJtws of thit position
In dw annual Red and White game
Bid Yancy was voted Most Valuable
Player snd proved he was the best
A week or to later Bob Padilla called
our hero into hit office snd told him
he could not  start for  the  Bulldogs
The exact conversation does not matter
to nw, what does was the look on
Billy boys face, snd when he asked me.
•Whet do I have to do to prove myselJJ'

foal after your woman hat left far good
With pride being the juice of sil men
deep in the hee/t, Bill had no choice
but to withdraw himself from Fresno
and put hit worthy talents up for
franchise elsewhere I am sure Mr
Yancy would still be with us if he hsd
hsd the chance, but why hang around
letting yourself get screwed? Good
luck Bill Yancy snd take cart until next
time around
