I think Illinois State has the ability to put a scare into whoever the 8 is.
Probably an off season discussion but there needs to be a real come to Jesus moment for this league over the summer. Everybody has underachieved to this point.
Problem is coaches don’t like to hear it. They get their shackles up with any suggestions. They all secretly want every team but their own to suck.
Truer words...
I'm confident that whatever school the MVC sends to the NCAA tournament will represent us well. They will have played against some damn tough defenses almost every game. Not the most talented teams but a lot of teams that are well coached and make defense a priority. That is the sort of grind that will make games in the NCAA very winnable.
