Well said Ace75 - if you aren't UNI or WSU you do seem to catch a lot of flak on here. They seem to want the proverbial cake and eat it too. If there were 4 to 6 good teams a year in the MVC they would be missing the days of being at the top and not challenged too much. Though they say that they would like it and want that - it would piss them off to a certain extent to be pushed harder and sometimes not be in the Top 2 or 3. Just like the Washpun shot finding a way to get into the basket last year pissed off most UE fans and disappointed us. As that would have done the UE program a lot of good to have been in the NCAA.
I understand with Conference Rivals it can be hard to be humble but come tourney time and in the off-season it shouldn't be difficult.
In closing I tip my cap to both UNI and WSU for what they have built in Hoops - what they need to understand is that the fans of all the other schools in the MVC want the same thing but their programs haven't found the right mix of players / coaches / fan support and monetary backing to make it happen on a consistent basis.
