My only problem with Valpo is that they haven't won much yet. Get us some big non-conference wins every now and again and all is forgiven.

Oh...and their facilities.

Yeah, Valpo is fine but, until they get some big OoC wins they'll get picked on. That goes for all the new members also. Until you get some big OoC wins, you'll probably get some s***.
Also, feel free to pick on Evansville if they continue to be bad ;)

1. You root for any MVC team that makes the tourney like it were your own unless they’re your rival (sorry ISU)
2. If you are that team, we require at least 1 MVC Chant if you are boat racing a giant in the NCAA Tournament
3. Bonus points if you dunk on Loyola, take the time to learn why we flat out hate Wichita and the Fighting Greggggggs (and his wife), and understand why have a cold feeling towards Creighton….. that being said I still root for Oregon because Dana.

Number 1 is easy. I always root for the conference team to beat outsiders...even our rival, Murray State. They usually give me grief, but I ignore that. I still root for them. In fact, I was glad to see Prohm return. I was never a fan of McMahon, but I have always like Prohm and wish him the best at Murray.

Number 2 is also easy, but I hate to dig on other schools. I'm not perfect, but I try to be respectable.

Rule 1 remains solid for me. Love watching Loyolas Final 4 run a few years back. This ISU fan was happy Porter Moser, former Redbird HC, had success. Now, when Bradley lost that absolute heart breaker a few years ago…that was just such a shame…

Good news for Bradley fans, you haven’t even had to consider if you were going to root for ISU in the NCAA tournament the last 25 years.
