Agreed. I wish they looked outside, but at the same time I do think Tut is a good fit. The way he played was the ideal big man in today's game - effective all over the floor offensively, great passer. I assume he takes over coaching the big guys, which...

It wouldn't be an awful idea to try to set up the game at Boise right before we head out to Hawaii (December 18-19?). It might help with travel since it's our only game out west, at least so far. Other than that, yes, we need to do everything possible...

A little scheduling news...

Sources: Stanford, BYU, Northern Iowa, Wyoming, New Mexico State, South Florida, Liberty, and Hawaii will headline the 2021 Diamond Head Classic.

Considering the footprint of the league, it seems kind of odd to add a Texas team, but I'd agree - I do think it would be good for the conference as a whole. Plus, teams like Creighton and Wichita were awful geographical fits for their leagues, but that...

Tyreke Key back for ISUb. I don't expect them to be very good, but he is a stud.

Yea, he's going well beyond our reach. Apparently he has a call with Kansas today. It is a bit funny, he said he grew up an Iowa State fan, so he won't even consider going to Iowa....

Yea, I don't know to much about the kid other than his stats that are available online. With that said, here is a new article where he says he wants to stay close to home. Drake, Iowa St, Iowa, Creighton, etc are all closer to his hometown than us, but...

Already seeing some Twitter chatter that he's going P5. The last 2 seasons for the D2 national champs he's averaged 22+ ppg and shot 45%+ from 3. Seems like he'd be a great get, but might be beyond our reach....

UNI, Loyola, Drake and Missouri St MUST schedule a strong non conference. A big non conference can really set up for a big season in the Valley. All 4 teams should be pretty darn good. After that, it might be a hot mess, but the top of the conference...

All seniors other than Krut back for Loyola...

Sources: Loyola Chicago's Lucas Williamson, Tate Hall, Aher Uguak, and Keith Clemons will ALL return next season and use their additional year of eligibility. Significant MVC news.

Valpo has had an interesting offseason already. Pulling in 2 kids from Wisconsin and another from Michigan St....

I don't watch a lot of NBA, but I don't think he'll make it there. He was a Valley great, but I don't think he has the size/athleticism to be successful in the NBA. Especially when he really doesn't have much of an outside shot, that we've seen at least....

Krutwig has confirmed he will be going pro and not returning to Loyola next year.

Ihenacho committed to James Madison

The problem is the big $ schools are going to have an even bigger advantage than they currently do. The majority of the time the kids is going to pick the higher school anyway, but not always. AJ would never come here, Gonzaga arguably never would have...

Looks like he's returning to Cincinnati....

I guess it's official - The NCAA has officially passed its new transfer rules: student-athletes are now allowed to transfer once without sitting out a year and are immediately eligible to play at a new school.

Seems like this kid would be a pretty good get. He has quite a few offers, and is originally from Minnesota, hopefully he wants to stay close to home. He can do it all - averaged 8.7 PPG, 5.7 RPG, 4.1 APR last year. Are all transfers eligible to play...

Liam Robbins follows his uncle (again) to a Vanderbilt. Kinda laughable at this point.

Donovan Clay transferring from Valpo to Missouri St. Apparently it's up to Valpo to grant him immediate eligibility. Missouri St could be pretty good if he does get it.
