MVC Schedules

[Majik45]

Bradley Beat Write Dave Reynold's Tweeted out:

"Good source tells me Bradley men's basketball will play at Missouri on Sunday, Nov. 29. One game, no return."

[MVC Phil]

John Rothstein posted the same a little bit ago.

Another geographically close game with limited travel needed.

This is the year to get these match-ups.

And yet Valpo has none of them... It's a very underwhelming schedule so far based on the chatter on our board:

@ Toledo

@UIC

@ Central Michigan

Eastern Michigan

Charlotte

SIUE

Chicago State

MTE (in Nashville) Wright State Towson and TBD

Counzo Martin said yesterday on a radio interview that the MU/MSU home and home isn't gonna happen, at least now. He said it was his decision to not follow thru, but admitted he had gotten backlash from some MU boosters. I don't blame ZO, he's under a bit of fire going into this year and can't afford too much more negative vibe, and especially couldn't afford to lose that game in SPRINGFIELD, and not be in serious trouble with a segment of boosters. Oh well .

Too bad for MSU. Would have been a chance at a quality win for them, and for the MVC. Unfortunately this happens quite a bit with BCS schools backing out. They can afford to do so.

Interesting turn, as it makes me wonder if they are replacing that game in Springfield with the game they supposedly just signed with Bradley in Columbia. Timing of both announcements is close. Too bad for MSU as getting to host Big Brother at your own place is awesome.

Per Harry Schroeder, The Redbirds will have games against: Southern Miss, Murray State, and SLU next season.
Assuming the SLU series is a H/H means Francis Okoro will play against the Redbirds in 2021. For those who don't know, Okoro went to HS in Normal at Normal West. He graduated early and went to Oregon for two years. He got PT at Oregon but it seemed he was getting recruited over so he transferred. The day before he announced his transfer destination, he posted a picture of him in an Illinois State jersey. Some fans were really excited because he hadn't posted anything about any other school in that way.

Anyway, he committed to SLU and will sit out the 2020-21 season.

Sycs out here cashing those checks....

Uggg..another buy game from an A-10 school.

You can't expect the perception of this league to be among the top mids when you repeatedly take buys from other mids. Does Lansing think he is in the SWAC?

Dayton doesn't count. That's a good buy. They're like a poor man's Gonzaga.
