Oakland to the HL

Postby Chuck A » May 7th, 2013, 11:58 pm

We the fans of the Horizon League would like to thank The Valley for taking Loyola off our hands, which allowed the HL to invite a program that's leaps and bounds ahead of LU. We finished 3 spots behind the MVC. With our respective additions, The HL has just closed the gap further.

Oakland had nearly the same record as Loyola.

Thanks for stopping by bitter bill! Your conference was a joke this year without Butler and will continue to be even with the addition of the all mighty Oakland Grizzles.

Lmao. This dude was everywhere desperately trying to get UIC into the Valley. Now that they got rejected, the Horizon is "rapidly closing the gap". Good one.

Oakland now & oral Roberts in 2012 left the summit league because of NDSU & SDSU taking away the ncaabasketball bids and ncaa bids in softball baseball volleyball golf etc etc.

I feel.embarassed for them running from competition and obviously the mvc won't allow NDSU/sdsu for the same reason and its quite sad

Envy and obsession noted.

Hey, thanks for playing Get my School in the Valley. Sorry you didn't qualify, but we have some nice consolation prizes for you, including the Arch Madness Play at Home Game....

It's nothing personal.
You're a geographic outlier.
You're 2 miles closer to StL than Tallahassee!

You got it dude!!! Everyone is terrified of NDSU no matter what sport. Isn't about time for you to head back to the MAC forum and tell them like you did yesterday that they are too afraid of NDSU to get into the MAC? When was the last time you stopped by the MWC forum with the same thought provoking accusation? You should just stop going to all of these message boards and admit what you already know. No conference in it's right mind is going to invite NDSU because all of the conference schools are terrified of NDSU. :bounce:
