Last Summer Scrimmage Recap From WSU

[glm38]

I don't think many would be surprised if UNI took second.

That is my prediction. I don't have any confidence in Simmons coaching at all.

[Aargh]

Evansville has 2 pre-season All-Valley picks. I can't disagree with putting both of them on the 1st team All-Valley selections.

If UE can't finish 2nd with 2 All-Valley selections, that would be totally on Simmons. On the other hand, Simmons brought those guys in, so you've got to give him credit for his recruiting.

While I have little confidence in Simmons' ability to use the talent he recruits, I doubt UE could hire anyone who could produce a better result than Simmons is producing there.

Well, Mock and DJ were first team All-MVC last year and they still finished 5th.

Evansville putting guys on the 1st team has a lot more to do with voters not being able to see past points per game than anything else.
