A NIL tournament for November 2024 has just been announced. Eight teams, at first, in Vegas and each team gets $1 mil up front and the winning team gets another $1 mil to spread amongst their players. Plus it's all expenses paid, so this should really impact the pre-conf tourneys. It's all about...

This has been driving me crazy and I have not been able to get an answer from any of my buddies. Here’s my question…why do offenses run plays to the short side of the field so many times? To me, it makes no sense. The field is compressed so one would think the defense has an easier job at making...

I'm hoping someone can explain something to me. Why do they penalize a team moving up by not allowing them to be bowl eligible right away? I could see an argument for a team moving down, but it seems stoopid to penalize a team moving up. JMU is getting screwed over.

The mighty #1 seeded Indy St sucksomemores are felled by the vaunted eastern Kentucky Colonels. Our teams can’t even win a crappy pay to play tournament. After the performances of the valley teams in post season play, it begs to ask…why does Misery Valley bball suck so much? What happened?

The ncaa, in their infinite wisdom, really stuck it to bradley. And they did Drake no favors. I will be rooting for our Valley mates but I won't be holding my breath.

A buddy of mine just had his son bail on him for the IHSA 3A and 4A Championships so he has three tickets in Section 123, row 7 and would like to sell two at face value of $110.00 per ticket and if the buyer wanted the third ticket that one would only cost $55.00. The tickets are for both...

This tourney could prove to be highly entertaining. I believe three teams...Drake, Belmont and it sucks to bu have the inside track to cut down the nets on Sunday. The next level might be Indy St and Murray St., but nothing after that. I'm going with Belmont. They have the horses to make the...

I've been watching a lot of college bball this season as I enjoy college basketball and need to do some intel for our annual trek to Las Vegas. While watching various games from all over the country it seems like other schools are doing all sorts of things to get the student body out to the...

lil ten team in the top 25. Hilarious! I cannot remember the last time only one team was ranked. Still, I bet they get 8-9 teams into the tourney only to get whacked in the first weekend. Love to see this.

In 2018, my wife and I made the trip and it was a pretty good time. Met a couple of posters here from other parts of the country and had some good conversations with them. We are heading down again this year with another Redbird couple. The team has changed hotels, a YUGE downgrade from where...

anyone planning on making the trip?

The valley has some history in hiring “favorite sons.” Lil jimmy les, Chris lowery and of course, Dan Muller. Two of the three did some pretty incredible things at their alma mater before getting axed. The problem with this scenario is that it is destined to end badly. At this level of D1 a...

and you can't bring ISU into this discussion. Last night while watching the end of Auburn and Mizzou...Auburn has the ball and a one point lead with just about 10 secs to go in regulation. Mizzou apparently doesn't realize this and doesn't foul them. Auburn drives, gets a bad shot off but the...

Crud. We have now lost our leading rebounder on a team that doesn't rebound very well. Hoping Sy gets better soon.

Loyola is getting kicked at home. Bye-bye ranking and bye-bye shot at an at large. Winner take all in the Lou.

I hesitated to mention this but one of our own, TPGuy, has been in a mighty struggle recently with health issues. I have been in contact with him several times a day and I won't/can't get into details but if you believe in the power of prayer, this might be a good time to remember him. I will...

And ucd just lost at home by 19 to the Academy of Art University, a D2 school, in front of 316. I believe we found a coach just as bad as muller.

I cannot find one ISU fan who thinks muller should be retained. Not one. Our only shot of staying out of Thursday night has just as much to do with how horrible this conference is. The decision to release muller is all based on the almighty $$$. Basically, is his incompetence impacting the...

What a dumpster 🔥.

It's that time of the year again. The clash of wannabes and the almost made its. Flag football at it's finest will take place on Nov 26th at my house. Covid shut us down last year, but not this year. This game's humble beginnings started on a rainy, cold day on the ISU practice field in 1985...
