We will have to do it without Colt, but he has done a lot to inspire the underclassmen and new recruits. As far as I am concerned, a rival that I would like to conquer is ISUB.
Well u went 10-9 in conf games and lose a guy who averaged almost 24 points a game in conf. I watched him single handily win in Wichita. Excuse me if I will take the wait and see approach. I'm sure u will take offense to this but u asked so I'm telling why I'm "dismissing" them.
Congrats on the win last night
Lest we not forget they lose Troy Taylor and Ned Cox as well. That is 3 of the top 4 scorers. The top 3 in a assists. 2 of the top 3 rebounders. Evansville will not finish out of Thursday next year, and you can book that.

See, you both are thinking wrong...UE is changing, improving, right before your eyes, but you cling to the old way of viewing them. Yes, Colt, Troy, Ned, and Lewis will be gone, but that doesn't mean there are huge voids there...instead, just opportunity for the new young guns, fast guards, and rebounders to fill in the stats and keep right on climbing in the Valley. I will be surprised to see us finish lower than we did this year, and we probably will close even higher. You've seen our freshmen, and our returning underclassmen; but you don't know yet about our recruits, including Blake Simmons......gonna be a real good year!
