    Trying to figure out how the voting broke out. It would appear Ill St with 4 1st place votes, also received 2 2nds and 2 3rds.

    No idea yet on how WSU ended up with 53 points. After the 4 1st place votes, that leaves only 21 points on the table. Best I come up with is 2 3rds , a 4th, and a 5th.

      I'd love to see the ballots from all the Valley coaches....It's obvious half the coaches don't take it seriously or hold some kind of grudge against WSU.

      As of now I get more pumped for non conference games, but maybe knowing who likes to vote us last might give me some added fuel to care about our games against them.

        Does this mean Gene has a shot at coach of the year?

          He does every year. Though generally speaking his chances are better at being national coach of the year.

            My calculations show the following possibility

            ISU - 4 -1st,, 2-2nd, 2-3rd
            WSU - 4-1st, 2-2nd, 1-3rd, 1-8th

            Other possibility for WSU is

            4-1st, 2-2nd, 1-5th, 1-6th
            4-1st, 1-2nd, 1-3rd, 1-4th, 1-6th
            4-1st, 2-3rd, 1-4th, 1-5th

              You earn respect, they have not done much in the last two years to earn it. This is a different program from where we knew they were going to be good each year, now we hope they will be good.

              Right now I'm bullish on the Shox. I think it has the potential to be a good year.

                Thanks, SB. Is your most likely guess the first one? If so, who do you think is being an s.o.b.?

                  After the worst season in Shocker history in 2010, 2nd place this season seems a little high to me.

                  This team has a lot to prove.
                  Let's hope he can hit a D-1 Curve ball!

                      If Brownlee was still a coach I would say it was him (I think he voted WSU last every year he was coach after the incident.

                      If somebody voted WSU last I wouldn't put it past GS to have done it. I think maybe one of the other scenario is more likely. Not sure with Brownlee gone there is any coach with a lot of animosity towards WSU.

                            shouldn't this be called the MVC Pre-Season Power Ranking
