NBC News was at the SIU campus yesterday for the solar eclipse coverage. Lester Holt got a glimpse of the campus and asked the reporter on live tv "Is that a high school campus you're at right now?" Lol.

I've been to the SIU campus. It's a nice campus. My guess is what Lester Holt saw was the SIU D-II football stadium which is what I saw on the news (not NBC though).
The Horizon League has filed a lawsuit against Valparaiso University alleging breach of contract and tortuous interference after Valpo's departure to join the Missouri Valley Conference this past May.

Maybe the other Valley schools will agree to give Valpo some of the Valley's existing NCAA shares earned by Wichita State to help them with that.
Lol yeah, looks like the Valley will still get some good use out of the money we made for them. Sad part is it'll probably be offset by the money they'll lose with us not being in St. Louis or having a team earn more than one NCAA credit anymore.
1/5 of the Valley now were Horizon League schools five years ago. They should just combine now lol. Good for the Horizon League standing up.
I don't see that happening. That would expand the conference footprint to 8 states. They finally have the conference footprint concentrated in 4 states and that is only because they are stuck with Missouri State. The Valley probably does hope that MSU joins the SunBelt so they can raid the Horizon for UIC or maybe pull IUPUI or Western Illinois out of the Summit.

So the Valley replaced a school that just paid 2.5 Million in Entrance fees along with giving up 1 million to the Valley along with offering to pay other schools increased travel costs with a school balking over 500k fee that they were the ones that wanted in place.
