First post.
I think most of Salukiland is thrilled about the 6-1 start. As we are entering the softer stretch of our schedule, leaving the non-conference with 2-3 losses is really a possibility at this point.
To the above poster: The Bola suspension thread has 20 pages on SalukiNation at this point. The TL:DR is this:
Bola made a dumb mistake in his actions on the bench and should have known what he was getting into as he almost transferred at the end of last year. He deserved his suspension. On the other hand, Hinson has admitted to poor relationships with his players at the end of last year, and his transfer rate approaches C.Lo, including what will probably be now 3 players who were starting when they transferred. In conclusion, both parties are at fault, which is unfortunate as we would probably be 7-0 if Bola had played against UTEP.
I will say that there is a lack of SIU coverage here on mvcfans.com, at least lately. I would encourage the moderators to try to engage all teams, rather than cater to a few. For example, while not placing Armon Fletcher on the ballot of potential FOTY is excusable (watch out for him later though!), the Mike Rodriguez for NOTY omission, and especially not having Anthony Beane on the list for potential first team all-Valley is not. He was 3rd in the Valley last year in PPG, so Beane being near the top of the Valley in PPG is not a surprise by any stretch of the imagination. If you need a suggestion of who we think may have potential, let us know.
Thanks for reading.
