@packerdawg that game is the largest reported attendance in the Valley this season. Only two Valley games have had over 5000 reported attendance this season. Murray leads the Valley in average attendance followed by SIU. Drake the preseason favorite is averaging 2700 a game.

Yet another reason why I'm baffled high-level recruits would want to play for Drake.

Don't know if they've had injuries but Murray played a super tight rotation tonight.  

Can't imagine that'll hold up as the season goes on.

Bryan Moore only getting 8 minutes at Murray.  That shows me that maybe we really did get the better guy in Johnson instead of staying in on Moore.  I know there were some here that wanted him bad.

Des Moines is a great city and DeVries is a great coach.

@mdogs1 Reported attendance and attendance are two different things. Didn't look like 5 grand on TV. Crowd didn't seem very lively. I was amused that the coach was trying to pump them up late in the game.

@cowboydawg 

Good luck with the move; I found moving (back here from Austin last year) to be incredibly stressful, even though it all went smoothly. Weird.

Des Moines is great--I'm sure you'll be happy there.

@austinsaluki Thanks, didn’t like giving up my long, long time basketball and football season tickets. Cedar Falls isn’t too far.

Good night for Donovan Clay on Missouri State.  17 points, 9 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals, 3 blocks

Was SIU in on Clay? He played at Alton.

Don't remember them mentioned for him.  Dana Ford has done a good job with Southern Illinois, he also got NJ Benson from Mt. Vernon who SIU was after.

Indiana State looks good, really good. They may very well compete for the league title.

Avila with 13 points and 9 rebounds with 5:50 left.  Sure hope Hornecker works out like I think he will because we were really interested in Avila.
