    Somebody take notes. I'm wondering if anything positive will actually come of this.
    Infinity Art Glass - Fantastic local artist and Shocker fan
    RIP Guy Always A Shocker
    Carpenter Place - A blessing to many young girls/women
    ICT S.O.S - Great local cause fighting against human trafficking
    Wartick Insurance Agency - Saved me money with more coverage.
    Save Shocker Sports - A rallying cry

      A resurgence of the usage of "psych!" in the common vernacular?

        Welcome to the league. Look forward to you learning how to flop with the best of them. If we can get rid of WSU and MSU we can get this to a three state league. I know the rest of the leagues are expanding their footprint and bringing in solid basketball programs, however I don't think that is the right formula for the MVC. The way for the MVC to prosper is to get rid of the most successful programs and consolidate the league. The closer the schools are together the better. Thanks.

        At least that's how I think it went. I didn't listen

          A Summary:

          Elgin -- Start with a lame film of Men's basketball highlights over the years. Narrated by Barry Hinson (the Herb Brooks speech before game vs Russia). Next Death by powerpoint on league history (9 teams made sweet sixteen, CU never).

          Father whoever, President of Loyola - We spent $300 million on campus improvements. Glad we are in a conference with schools close to us.

          Mrs AD lady. First start with a you say VALLEY we'll say RAMBLERS cheer. Next a blah blah blah, glad we are in a conference with schools close to us.

          Men's basketball coach. Rah Rah Rah,

          Questions.

          Will this help recruiting? We still need to recruit STUDENT athlete.

          Question about funding for Athletic improvements. Father gave us seed money, we need to raise it ourselves.

              Blah, blah, blah a lot of whoohaa about nothing. Rolls my eyes about all the verbal judo used to shine up this turd, but at the end of the day it's still a turd. Loyola has a lot of work to do and actions speaks louder than words.

                          I can make jokes about Loyola joining the conference, but at this point I choose to welcome them. I know many here aren’t pleased with the selection or the direction of the conference. Until I hear we’re leaving the conference, I will continue to be an advocate and supporter of the Missouri Valley Conference.

                          Loyola, welcome to the Missouri Valley Conference!

                            Loyola? Did they have to replace Creighton with a Catholic school. If somehow Loyola can tap into the Chicago market, could be big time, but they haven't been able to do that in the past. I assume they are a bottom 5 team in the conference at this point and time?
