Northern Iowa is likely to lose AJ Green, possibly going professional but the rumors are he might be transferring to Iowa State to join his dad and improve his draft stock.  Northern Iowa is likely looking at a bit of a rebuilding year next year but really depends on how they hit the transfer portal.

I'd be shocked if Greene ever got drafted - good shooter (but not a great shooter like Korver) but somehow he just doesn't impress me. Mosely is far more talented IMO if he can consistently play up to his talent - often does not.

If he's gone, can't see UNI being picked to win the MVC next year. May lose Berhow, Pickford, and Fyfe too.

These teams have been good for several years and attendance is still abysmal for the championship game.  I promise when SIU makes it to Sunday that place will be packed. 

The tournament still had a lot of restrictive mandates in place which certainly doesn't help.   

I did not think of that, but imagine a future SIU vs Murray championship game.  They’d be able to pull the curtain back off of the 200-level. 

Murray and Morehead had better attendance in OVC final in Evansville than the MVC final had.

If we played them in the MVC Championship, that place would be rocking!!

The NBA isn't the only option these days. 

He can make serious money in Europe, and his game is suited for that. Yeah, it's not NBA money, but it's more than I've ever made. Gonna guess you too. 🤪

I don't see either Mosley or Green playing in the NBA, but I am confident both will play professional basketball and make a lot of $$ doing so.

Would love to know how Evansville could sell Lickliter's return to their fan base. They had a couple decent freshmen, but their roster is in really bad shape overall heading into the offseason.

Looking strong except for their head coach.

Yeah they need to figure out the beginning of the season.  Wardle's teams seem to get it together late in the season but that's not really good enough and bad for the Valley when they're peaking in March and getting 14 seeds in a one bid conference

I think there is a good chance DeVries gets plucked away by a top 7 conference team in the off season. He may be an even more attractive candidate if he takes his son with him.
