Try convincing a kid that your school has pride in the the basketball team, but for some odd reason you don't have any locker rooms. Now show that same kid a locker room like Evansville and try and convince him that school has pride in him. Guarantee you he picks the school that prides itself in their players and cares about them. Nothing disrespects a player more than having to take a dump at halftime in the mens bathroom at the student gym.
Our last five are still collectively better than your starting lineup.

Thankfully I do not think any MVC teams have this issue. We have some pretty fantastic basketball facilities and I know UNI has some very impressive training facilities for its athletes. The Richard O. Jacobson Human Performance Complex is fantastic and give UNI athletes access to our own X-ray and MRI machines (which, hopefully, are rarely needed any time soon) as well as a first class weight training area.

There is one school I think. Missouri St maybe?

Missouri State's lockerooms are every bit as nice as any in the league. Yes, the in Lockerooms in JQH are not state of the art and currently the Bears teams use the visitors lockerooms at halftime and the visitors use the old lockerooms in HSC. With all that said the current day to day lockerooms are a mere 60 ft from the JQH floor and judging by the picture of the UE lockerooms they are much nicer with individual mahogany lockers and individual LCD screens in each locker for watching game tape. The new lockerooms in JQH will start going up in July. They will include 3 new chemical tubs and a new hypobaric chamber. A lounge with pool table couches and TV. Computer/study lab to help with academic progress and an 22 locker main room. Also being built is a new theater, 8 new offices for the basketball staff and a cafeteria.

Except for the fact that we have incredibly nice locker rooms? You're digging a little bit here.


FYI, these are the temporary home locker rooms/permanent visitor lockers in JQH:

Lol, that sounds incredibly nice. I bet they have automatic paper towel dispensers as well.

Wow. That is much more than I would expect from SIU. Those are slick.
