In the finest tradition of schools with a name that sounds like it’s just one dude puttin’ out the vibe—y’know, Lamar, Howard, Troy, etc.—Bryant University is struggling to distinguish itself in D-I basketball. The Bulldogs have been D-I for less than a decade, and it’s been a pretty rough time for them. It doesn’t look like that’ll be ending any time soon, either.
Bryant at least has managed to be competitive within the NEC on a semi-regular basis, but the NEC is also routinely ranked among the nation’s worst conferences, putting that group of teams on the lowest rung of mid-majordom.
