He lost me after he wrote, "I love Barry Hinson." 🤣 

I think most Valley fans like Hinson as an outsider.  He's harmless, easy to beat, and is a voice for the conference.  It's a lot different when he actually coaches your team.

Yeah, as much as it pains me to say I liked him when he wasn't our coach. When he's your coach you soon find out what he really is.

@kyle_saluki_17  I appreciate it.  I honestly think SIU can easily be better than I had them.  There are a lot of unknowns on the roster this year, but you're starting off with a stud in Domask which is a great starting point.  If the supporting cast is solid, sky is the limit.

@saluki82  I appreciate the comment, but don't worry about hurting my feelings.  That's what sports are for.  Debate away and tell me why I am wrong!

100% agree.

Two new blog posts today.

One runs down the action in week one and updates the power rankings.

The other ranks the top 30 returning players in this year's MVC (lots of nice things to say about Domask).

Check it out here:  https://www.missourivalleybeat.com

Thanks!

Hey Salukis,

Two new writeups today. One is the power rankings and summary from week two. The other ranks all the DI conferences by strength (via RPI over the last 7 years). I've also written MVC preview articles, an article highlighting each school's best team of the 21st century (featuring the 06-07 Salukis Sweet 16 team), and an article ranking the top 30 returning players in the MVC this year (featuring Jones and Domask).

I've also added an "MVC Resources" page compiling all the MVC fan sites, blogs and podcasts I could find. If you have any I should add, let me know.

Hello Saluki fans,

There are two new posts on the blog this week.

-Week 3 MVC Power Rankings, Summery and Mid Major Tidbits: A decent amount of movement this week.

-Recapping Every Arch Madness Championship Game: Starting with the first St. Louis based MVC Tournament final in 1991, through last season, I recap every Arch Madness final as well as give a short summary of how the MVC did in the postseason that year.  That includes recaps of each of the SIU wins in the 90s and 2000s.  

You can also check out my other, older posts including my MVC Season Preview, Every MVC School's Best Team of the 21st Century, The MVC's Top 30 Returning Players, and Every DI Conference Ranked. I also have a page with links to every MVC message board, blog, and podcast that I know of. Let me know if I am missing anything.

Check it all out here:> https://www.missourivalleybeat.com/

Hello Saluki Fans,

What an outstanding week!  Congrats on beating Butler!

I have two new blog posts this week. The first ranks the MVC coaches. The second is the week four summary, power rankings, and mid-major bits.  I originally had SIU at #7 in my preview and I am ready to fully admit that was a very bad take.

There is lots of other Valley content there as well if you haven't taken a look yet. Next week I am starting a two-part series where I simulate an MVC season (via whatifsports) using each team's best team of the 21st century from my earlier article. Should be fun.

Check it out at www.missourivalleybeat.com/ . Have a great holiday all!
