Valpo Basketball / Women's Basketball 2022-2023
June 07, 2022, 05:47:52 PM
This should be a fascinating season. We graduated 3 had 3 others who played regular minutes leave. In all we lose:
Points 67%
Rebounds 54%
3 pointers 73%
Assist, steals and blocked shots all over 70%.

We replaced this with 3 guards though 2 are 5-10 which may make them forwards. Both transfers look like good shooters. Hopefully Tecca is healthy she missed her last two years of HS plus basically 2 more years with injuries. Sims dropped off Oakland's team after playing 12 games.

The freshman apparently joined the team second semester which has to be helpful.

Maybe this is the year Johnston and Beyer earn some action.

Plus we redshirted 2 last season.

Valpo Football / 2020 Football Roster
August 31, 2020, 03:07:30 PM
Just checked the roster:
OL Vas and Russell no longer on the roster. Russell was hurt badly last year but Vas was our most experienced lineman and the only senior. We thought our OL experience was minimal last year....more of the same. We have lots of Redshirt Freshmen and true Freshmen.

Also gone are TE Kluck and gigantic DL Sete.

Two small midwestern college already in financial peril have announced they are closing.

I fear we will see this continue to happen.
#17
The board seems 50/50 on whether Lickliter was a good hire. Personally for Valpo I think it is. Bryce Drew's name was mentioned as a better alternative.

There are also people there who contend UE's athletic fortunes dropped soon after dropping football.

Finally the Aces have a chance to pull off a rare 0 and 0 as both Men's and Women's Basketball have or any looking at no conference wins.

Valpo Football / Football Seniors
November 08, 2018, 02:26:54 PM
Up to 29 seniors could be playing their last home game Saturday. 11 definitely so, 18 others could return.  We could potentially lose 8 of 10 OL from the two deep.

Given this season and our history of 5th year seniors we could see many of the 18 graduate.

Sports Talk / Attendance and replacing a coach

Coaching can be tough.....

UTA needless firing of Cross doesn't fix the problem
By Mac Engel
tengel@star-telegram.com
March 27, 2018 12:08 PM

Upon hearing the news that UT Arlington fired Scott Cross, one Division I coach in the state said to me: "They did what? Didn't he win 20 games three straight years?"
Funny you should mention that.
Cross had one of the hardest jobs in the state, and he was caught up in not being the right guy, even if he was the right guy.
The day UTA opened the new College Park Center in the middle of its campus, Cross was put on notice. He had to win. And he had to fill up the new barn.
That same day in February 2012, the school introduced Jim Baker as the new athletic director. Without the benefit of having football, his main job is to fill up the $78 million, 7,000-seat arena.
What Baker, and no one at the administration wants to admit, is that UTA can win every game and the College Park Center will likely still have thousands of empties.
The arena isn't the problem, nor was Scott Cross. The problem is UTA.
Even if UTA hires Texas Tech assistant Chris Ogden, as speculated, he will learn this soon enough: Nothing is impossible, but filling up the College Park Center is close.
Cross won, and not enough people showed up.
UTA fired a good man, and now they are looking for the Ark of the Covenant without Indiana Jones — they need a coach who can win in the Sun Belt. Then he has to win the conference tournament title, because the Sun Belt will never receive an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament. Then he must generate enough interest on a mostly commuter campus in a large, metropolitan region where the preferred sports are pro, and in particular football.
TCU is in the Big 12 and had a top 10 football team in 2017. It had no sellouts. In men's basketball, it had an NCAA Tourney team this season, and routinely there were empties (not a lot) in the 6,800 Schollmaier Arena.
Shortly after he and his staff were fired on Monday, Cross issued a heartfelt and kind statement on social media.
Cross is a decent, kind man who loved UTA. You would send your kid to play for him.
UTA won 20 games in each of the past three seasons, and people didn't show.
UTA won games, including at Ohio State, Texas, St. Mary's and Memphis, and featured fun players to watch in Kevin Hervey and Erick Neal.
And yet in this three-year span of success ...
In 2017-18, the Mavericks averaged 2,345 fans in their 15 home games.
In 2016-17, the Mavericks averaged 2,798 fans in their 15 home games.
In 2015-16, the Mavericks averaged 2,888 fans in their 15 home games.
When your team wins and the fans don't show, the problem isn't the coach. The problem is much deeper.
Maybe Cross had grown stale at UTA, but the new guy is going to inherit the same issues as his predecessor — UTA is a commuter school located in a major metropolitan area where college basketball ranks way down the list of things to do.
Generating school spirit in the conventional sense on these campuses is difficult. The student body, which in UTA's case is more than 41,000, is varied. Oftentimes the students are adults with jobs, and sometimes with children. Going to a basketball game is a luxury.
UTA is no different from a lot of schools that invest heavily in athletics as a means of marketing to increase interest in the university, thereby spiking donations, applications and enrollment. When it works, such as the case with TCU, the move is worth hundreds of millions.
When the move doesn't work, it leaves school officials chasing green and white ghosts.
The problem with Cross is that moving into the new College Park Center did work — the UTA Mavericks won a lot games. What it didn't do was reach the NCAA Tournament. What administrators refuse to admit is that even the good teams in the one-bid NCAA Tournament leagues, like the Sun Belt, set up coaches to fail.
Loyola-Chicago reached the Final Four out of the Missouri Valley Conference, but people likely don't even know that the Ramblers nearly lost in the quarterfinals of the conference tourney against Northern Iowa. Had Sister Jean and the boys lost that day, they would not have been given an at-large bid despite what would have been a 25-6 record.
The only way in for UTA is the conference tourney. UTA was easily the best team in the Sun Belt last season, but the Mavericks lost in the semifinals of the conference tourney. They went to the NIT and lost in the quarterfinals.
The NCAA tourney system is rigged against schools such as UTA, and nothing the school did by firing Cross changes anything about its situation.
Ogden, or whoever, might be an upgrade over Cross, but the challenges are so big that Indiana Jones himself could find the Ark of the Covenant at UTA and it still might not fill up the College Park Center.

Valpo Basketball / Women's Basketball 2017-2018
October 01, 2017, 03:33:10 PM
5 burning questions heading into 2017-2018:
1. Who plays center? Profit played 5 minutes last year. That is it on experience. I am not counting Franklin because we do not want to use her there.
2. When will Konieczny take over at point?
3. Will Hamlet's find her shot? She struggled last year at least part due to an attempt to play her at point.
4. Where will Donchetz fit in? She was a spark plug last year though they did not seem to know what to do with her.
5. Where must we finish to save coaching jobs? Will our traditional 8-9 place finish be enough.

Valpo Basketball / Michigan City HS trivia
April 29, 2017, 09:39:12 AM
Ryan Fazekas played HS ball in Michigan City. I can think of 5 other Valpo players who did the same. Can you name them?

One is obvious, one hit one of the biggest shots in VU history. The other three are lesser known.

They may be more, I could only think of 5.

Sports Talk / What will the NCAA do?
March 17, 2017, 08:37:37 AM
Keith Carter played in 3 games and 39 minutes for a coach he did not expect to play for due to a death of the previous coach.  The NCAA would not give him an additional year.

Joey Brunk played in 7 games for 49 minutes for Butler this year.  His father had brain surgery late last year.  Butler has requested a redshirt year.

Personally I have no problem granting the redshirt despite my dislike of Butler.  Given the Carter situation you would think it will be denied.  I would be willing to bet he gets the redshirt. 

Good thing for Brunk he did not choose Valpo.

Valpo Basketball / Looking for a good home
September 30, 2016, 07:20:33 AM
Back before the internet, schools used to print media guides. Actually maybe they still do.

Regardless, I have Valpo Basketball Media Guides from 1981-82 to 2000-01 with the exception of one year (not sure which). They have fallen victim to a downsizing and I am looking for someone who is interested in keeping them.

I know many on here complain about how we did not take advantage of our NCAA run, but after looking through these last night....we have really come a long way from 1981.

PM if interested

Valpo Basketball / Women's Basketball 2015-2016
November 09, 2015, 10:28:09 AM
22 pages on the old thread let's start fresh for the new year.

Opener vs. Butler in Indy on Friday.

Butler's roster is down to 10 players, 5 are true freshman, one a redshirt freshman and one a 5th year senior who played (pretty well) last year after four years of volleyball.

Looking at our roster photo I am struck by:
1. Lindfors is really tall
2. Scott-Thompson looks a lot like Richardson from a few years back. Same number, same size
3. Donchetz and Schofield could be sisters.
4. Schaub was a 5 year letterman in high school.
5. Anne Marie Hamlet and Meredith Hamlet could be sisters, wait they are....
