    MAC Football has an East and West which we would be in - of course Buffalo is further but I can also fly to Buffalo easier than I can to f'ing Fargo. And stay at a nicer hotel and see Niagara Falls. But hey let's roadtrip to Dick's Sportign Goods before heading to the UNI Dome instead of going...

    Hearing Hickman is going to Indiana (250K plus NIL deal) - Zek Montgomery returning to BU from Rhode Island. Schertz is gone after NIT - look for 3 Drake players including his kid to WVU (perhaps even Tyson from Belmont). MVC gutted - we're the minor leagues - not even AAA - we're fing...

    DeVries to West Virginia

    And the AAA MVC is once again raided by the Major League ballclub. Look for DeVreis to not only take Tucker but one other Drake player. In all reality with the number of teams losing players - if we keep our team in tact (granted getting in another big) we might actually sneak in next year...

    There's enough talent on that list to easily win the MVC next year - heck Rivera, Mason, Jones are three I'd have in a rotation

    Illinois State to the MAC?

    Another bust in MVC basketball - nothing to lose in hopps - both MAC and MVC are one bid leagues. At least in football we'll be a league where we're FBS and not junior varsity FCS. Playing Miami Ohio, WMich and Northern Illinois is alot more appealing than playing South Dakota, Indy State and...

    Illinois State to the MAC?

    I am a big fan of staying in a practical region - hence if the MVC could ever jump up for FBS (and expand to grab back Tulsa, Memphis, Ball State, NIU, WKU and Ark State - all within driving distance (even Normal to Tulsa is only 8 hours so nothing too crazy where there is some nite life and a...

    Bye, bye ncaa...

    One day soon it's all gonna implode. These kids should be paid but as part time employees on one year contracts- you're a student (which your tuition is taken care) and then an athlete. You get bonus for staying another year and for performance metrics. And you can be terminated. Avila makes...

    Illinois State to the MAC?

    In this day and age if I was the MVC i'd petition the NCAA to get rid of some of the archaic rules on stadium size/attendance and go up to FBS - we could be on par with MAC. Sure some schools like Indy State, Murray State, etc might opt for Pioneer, but heck if it can somehow get us to poach a...

    Illinois State to the MAC?

    I know that if we expanded stadium to 18000 the NCAA would grant an exemption to us to jump up. They have with others like Jacksonville State They have also made annual waivers on attendance requirements for over 25 DI programs to keep them FBS. Granted I would love to poach NIU, Ball State...
