2016 Valley All-Conference Teams

[Cdizzle]

COY 0-2 -23ppg.

Ready for a new conference.

[WuShock Reaper]

I hope IndSt. beats IllSt. If for no other reason than to get Muller out of St. Louis. Not to mention his merry gang of thugs.

And there is ISUr Head Gangster "P.D. Muller" leaving the MVC Tournament Luncheon letting everyone know where his team ranks next year in the conference.

Brand new article by Suellentrop more or less says that 3G missed out on the award because even though he garnered the most first place votes, 17 out of the 45 voters didn't even have him in their top two.

I despise this conference.

Yup. Those voters should have their voting rights revoked. That voter from SIU that didn't vote Marshall (or Hinson since he wasn't allowed to vote for him) in their Top 3 literally cost Marshall the award. His 3 points would have tied it. Pretty obvious he voted for other people to help Hinson

It looks like he already bought himself a championship ring

Oh Gregg hurt my feelings when he wouldn't come on my radio show during the Final 4. I'll never vote for him again. 3rd grade mentality gets tiresome. Some of these beat writers should be ashamed of themselves.

[Awesome Sauce Malone]

Well if winning the league by 4 games isn't worth COY, then you can probably count on Marshall never winning it again.

Hopefully that's the case, after we get out of this POS league.

Btw, I like Barry. He gave SIU a nice boost. I can see the argument for him. I just think it rewards mediocrity.

I said it in another thread.

Marshall/Basketball is the equivalent to Stephenson/Baseball (in its prime)

I think 4 of those non-Top2-votes came from WSU people who couldn't vote for him, so it isn't quite 17...but your point is still valid. Ridiculous! When the SIU beat writer didn't even include Gregg is his Top 3, I wondered if something like this could happen. Sure enough, it did.

Hefferman leaving Marshall completely off his ballot is likely what handed Hinson the award. So by not voting for Gregg, he effectively voted for Barry.

[Cdizzle]

Barry had better hope he doesn't accidentally use his super-coaching powers to get past UNI tomorrow.

How does the voting for COY work exactly? I understand the local media can't vote their guy number one, but what are the other components to the process/tabulation?

[WuShock16]

Gregg likes Barry...but I really hope we play Southern Illinois on Saturday because I want to see Gregg run up the score in that one.

Voters list their Top 3. Top vote gets 3 points, second gets 2, third gets 1. Most points wins it.

he won't

HCGM actually got more 1st place votes than Hinson (18-17) but Marshall was only named on 35 ballots. Which means six voters stiffed him.

[Cdizzle]

he won't

Given recent history, Marshall will have to improve significantly as a coach to have enough control over his team to keep the margin below 20.
