Re: Indiana State Football
As if it wasn't brutally honest already and it gets more obvious EVERY year...
It is time to ask Indiana State University to find a new home for their athletic teams. They have repeatedly proven that they are either unwilling or unable to compete in either the Missouri Valley Conference or the Missouri Valley Football Conference.
But hey, they are building a new baseball stadium

Re: Indiana State Football
I don't think it's any more reasonable for them to believe they can compete and matter in baseball than it is in football. I don't understand dumping resources into that sport when they play football in a converted baseball stadium before a crowd consisting of only family and friends.Originally posted by Brett Crawford View PostAs if it wasn't brutally honest already and it gets more obvious EVERY year...

Re: Indiana State Football
Did I hear right? Did they blow a 17-0 first quarter lead?
Damn, I thought they might win a game or two this year. Time for them to pack up and find a new home. The Valley can add USD or something.Comment

Re: Indiana State Football
The Valley can go back to eight for a while, it will be at least 3 or 4 years before USD and UND are ready to move out of their transition and be Valley ready...
I honestly believe the football side of the Valley will look very very different ten years from now. I don't think Western Illinois, Youngstown State, and Indiana State will still be in the league and I am not sure that Missouri State won't jump ship and head for the Sunbelt.
We could see--
UNI
SIU
NDSU
SDSU
Illinois State
UND
USD
8th Team- I am not sure who that would be. Winona State has been talking about DI FCS. They would probably be a good fit.Comment

Let's hope we don't have the same kind of mojo from the same kind of promo!The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.

Re: Indiana State Football
The Sycamores' 17-0 advantage was its largest since a 28-7 lead over Illinois State on October 2, 2004.Yikes!The Sycamores return to action on Saturday, September 5 when they travel to Louisville. Kick-off is slated for 7:30 p.m. (EDT).The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.

Re: Indiana State Football
BC-
With the economy and the way the football conferences in FCS and FBS are set up, I don't see WIU leaving the Gateway. They are relatively centrally located in the MVFC (bus trips to IlSU, InSU, UNI, and SIU...could drive to MSU also). In the OVC, they would be the northern most school, and EIU (currently the northern most school) is at a minimum 3 hours from the next closest OVC school). Basketball is what keeps Mo State going, and they wouldn't move from the MVC to the Sun Belt. They will either stay in the MVFC or drop football, IMO. And I don't think they will be dropping football anytime soon. Indiana State has a long history in the MVC, and I don't see them dropping to another conference. They may drop their football program, but that's it. They do seem to be pumping money into their football program, however.The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.
