OK... So I'll throw in my 2 cents which is exactly what it's worth...
1. Kobe Walker and Kyonte Thomas - Combined 5.5 games with at least 12 minutes played
OVER - I think Kobe is the real deal...
2. Rakim Chaney - 11.5 games scoring in Double Digits
UNDER - Don't think he's going to get the minutes
3. Justis McNair - 6.5 Points per game
OVER - Very close here, but I think he's going to get the minutes
4. Brody Whitaker - 35% three-point shooting
UNDER - Just based on what I saw in the Exhibition game.... hope he's over.
5. JT Pettigrew - 13.2 Points per game
OVER Best athletes on the court in most of the games we will play this year
6. Mark Brown - 8.5 shots per game
UNDER because he's going to fill the Assist stat sheet surrounded by guys who can score.
7. Isiah Barnes - 10.1 Points per game
UNDER - Barely... I'm thinking 7-9 points per game
8. Owen Dease - 1.2 Three Pointers Made Per game
WAY OVER - deadly from distance.
9. Carter Hopoi - 13.5 Combined Points and Rebounds per game
UNDER - barely - it's all based on rotational minutes
10. Shon Tupuola - 7.8 Rebounds per game
WAY OVER - If he can stay out of foul trouble. He's the back-to-the-basket player we've been missing.
11. Tucker Tornatta - Combined Assists+Steals+Blocks 3 per game
OVER - That's just enough statistics for something to stick.
12. Sader Servilus - 10.5 minutes in at least 10 conference games, including the first game in ARCH madness (21 possible games)
UNDER - too many players - too few minutes available
13. Members of First or Second Team - 0.5 -
OK, Kool-Aid Time - OVER
14. Non Conference Wins 6.5
OK, More Kool-Aid Time - OVER
15. Valley wins over teams not from Indiana or Illinois 1.5
Looking for 2 wins in 8 games against Belmont, Murray, UNI and Drake. OVER
16. Better (over) or worse (under) than 8.5th place in the valley

@talksalot I’m probably splitting hairs here, but I believe you mixed up the numbers on Sader Servilus. Paul included 1 conference tournament game and divided 21 games in half to come to 10.5 games with 10+ minutes. At least that’s the way I heard it.
I just re-listened to it...thanks for keeping me honest....I've adjusted the original post and my response...the first round is technically not a conference game... but a game against a conference opponent...
and actually, he does limit this stat to just 21 games, so when Valpo advances deep in the Arch Madness, and Sadeer is the leading scorer in those games, it won't count...

These lines are all so specific and realistic. Valpo hasn’t won 7 conference games since the 2020-21 season… it feels like this is a year we could get this done. Powell is building us back up brick by brick.
