I've been checking the other Valley Boards today. We are one of only a few that don't have a slew of personal attacks going on in our discussion. Congratulations guys! Lol 🙂
There have been a few but we just don’t allow it. We banned our #1 troll last week to help 😁
Drake is going to win this conference going away
While I agree that Drake is the current class of the MVC, I think Missouri State is going to give them a run for their money. I also think that Loyola and Bradley could win the Valley Tournament. If I were a betting man, I'd say one of those 4 teams will be the rep for the Valley in the NCAA tourney.

Of those 4 teams only 1 has a good head coach. After watching tonight’s games Drake is the clear best team and could be playing for a high seed at Arch Madness.
Loyola (3-1) beats Indiana State (1-5) and Bradley (1-1) beats Northern Iowa (2-4) despite some shenanigans from the Northern Iowa clock operator at the end
Valpo added DePaul to their schedule Saturday. I really wish one of our good teams in the MVC were playing this game.

Guess they miss seeing Javon Freeman Liberty

I guess so. I really hope that Valpo wins that game against him.
All three series this weekend were sweeps: Loyola over UNI, Bradley over Evansville and Indiana State over Illinois State. Some mega blowouts today in Peoria and on the north side.
Hopefully the Salukis can rev the engines back up and get back out there next week.
Harry Potters looked legit this weekend.

Still coached by Porter. Drake will beat them
Drake can beat just about anybody this year.

You obviously don't like or respect him, but all he's done is won. My goodness, he went to a Final Four.
Regardless, it begs the question; would you rather have a coach you dislike but WIN or absolutely love your coach and be mediocre. For example, I loathe Calipari, but if he coached here and we won, I would more than learn to tolerate it.

I don't dislike Moser like Barkeep but I don't agree with "all he's done is won" either.
Moser has been a head coach since 2000, with the exception of a few years, including being at Illinois State from 2003-2007, where he did very poorly. In fact, he was not impressive at all until the 2017 season with the Final Four run.
With that said, this is his 4th consecutive good team. They've been good ever since the Final Four run in the MVC. He will probably be around a while.
And lastly, the most agreeable part of your post "I loathe Calipari." Lol.
You are absolutely right - He hadn't won consistently in the past. He has, however, seemingly won since coming to the Valley and, at the very least, has won RECENTLY.
