Our League is Braindead

Postby MissouriValleyUnite » December 12th, 2018, 7:51 pm

Currently watching a school begging to join our league run over our best team by 31. At halftime. On the road.

This buzzsaw is led by its second lottery pick in 5 years. Recruiting to the OVC.

This program is on its 31st winning season in 32 years. It’s had 2 postseason runs halted after giving a national champion (Kansas) and national runner-up (Butler) their closest game, respectively.

This program has a pair of NCAA Tournament wins and a pair of Top 25 seasons. This decade.

It doesn’t matter who the coaches are (Cronin, Kennedy, Prohm, McMahon) or who the NBA’ers are (Canaan, Payne, Morant). The program never changes.

Can’t wait to watch a school who would lead our tournament in attendance takeover one of our own arenas the same weekend again. Printing money for the OVC.

I’ve tried biting my lip and not beating a dead horse - but this is the final straw. One word describes the Valley: braindead.

Already bought a package for Arch Madness. But if Murray State isn’t added come March, this league will never see another penny from me until the day they do. Love the Valley but enabling this leadership is pathetic.

The school presidents would have voted Murray State in 2 years ago if they wanted to go to 11. At this point, it is find a 12th member or bust.

As I've stated in another thread I don't even care who it is at this point... Maybe we should approach Lipscomb (a pretty good program) to put some pressure on Belmont to get off their high-horse. If not add NKU Wright State Milwaukee UIC Omaha whoever. But Murray State MUST join the Valley July 1 2019.

If it takes an email barrage to Elgin\MVC brass and university presidents to get this done so be it but GET MURRAY IN THEY BELONG IN THIS CONFERENCE. They may even make us forget about that school from Dorothy's home state one day.

It's all over their board now. Racer fans are cooling rapidly on the idea of joining the MVC...

Feels like the train is leaving the station.
