Glad to see you recognizing Javon as a player to be taken seriously in the Valley. Also good to see you acknowledging that Valpo might be better than you first thought.

Yeah, be foolish not to. Guy has been fantastic. I think that we also write-off Sackey and Clay, but both of those guys will get more attention come league play. Clay is a guy that should be in the Freshman/Newcomer conversation.
Brand New Episode of the Podcast! Fun show with Ethan from Happening Hoops as well as Vance and I talking all the MVC goings on.

I appreciate what you guys do, keep up the good work.
I like getting my competitive drive going on the ride into work listening to your Podcast this last week (binge style). Just thinking about how most of the conference thinks Valpo is a perennial doormat. Don't misconstrue my words here, we deserve nothing better or worse until we prove otherwise. But thanks for speaking your minds, most of the commentary is not unjustified in what limited examples you have in several years of us laying an egg.

Appreciate the kind words and thank you for listening. I think Vance and I are both assuming Valpo is where we got it wrong, especially if Fazekas comes back for league play. Should be a really fun year.

We are also joined by Matt Hackman, where we talk about his probabilities for Arch Madness and he also helps break down the ISU/UNI game including thoughts on UNI's at-large chances.
Hacksaw speculates that UNI could still be in at-large position with one more regular season loss. This has looked to me to be the % bet depending on who and where it might happen against plus who and when they are taken them down in St.Louis. With that in mind I wouldn't panic if Loyola beats them tonight. They should finish up about an hour after our battle at ISU.
I just hope that we have a second team that can also make a little noise in the tournament and surprise somebody. Otherwise I would prefer that UNI get the most advantageous seed possible so that they are in the best position possible to make a run. I do like the potential and future of the Valley though. If it's not this year I really do think the multibid Valley dream might be realized fairly soon!
Can't wait to hear Vance and Bakers take on Valpo's wins against their Persian Hounds and Birds of red. ;)

I agree with this. The hosts are open and honest about their allegiances, but also give credit to other teams. They covered the SIU loss on the previous episode. I think their take was a little bit more of "SIU played terribly" rather than "Valpo played great". Was probably a little of both.
In any event, I'm appreciative that they do the show, and hope they continue. And I will look forward to hear how they address the Valpo comeback.

Let's face it without SIU shooting and playing so horribly there is no way Valpo wins so easily because, again, Valpo did not play at their best and, more importantly, to their fullest potential.

Sorry, Valpo's defense was intense that night and SIU's offensive issues were a product of it. They were blocking shots, disrupting the flow, and forcing SIU into shooting more than half of their attempts from the perimeter (and you know how well that usually works out).
Thank you all for the feedback and listening, love the conversation. I think both of us, who are 100% not apologetic about our allegiances, try to be tough on our teams too, maybe even too hard to compensate when we get excited. Always love the feedback, hope to see you all in St. Louis!

This directed to the podcast hosts.
I enjoy the podcast and really appreciate the enthusiasm for the league that you bring to the show. Helps us rally around the league as a whole, rather than just our own teams. I think that pride in the league as a whole was missing for Valpo in the Horizon League.
On their latest podcast, they give a lot of time and attention to Valpo. They give credit to Valpo on exceeding their and the rest of the Valley's projections for this season's program. There's also a good conversation on the final game for each team and the consequences it has on ARCH MADNESS seeding. Well worth a listen.
Found it very interesting that they, looking at things from an outside perspective, think that the way Coach Lottich has handled the offseason issues and then the Fazekas injury should at least put him in the conversation for COY. Obviously a very different perspective than many on this forum.
Baker and Vance have an aplaudable season ending episode with Paul Oren as a guest :thumbsup:. Paul jumps on the show and has a great dialogue with Baker and Vance about Valpo to the CIT, John Kiser, Valpo entering the MVC, facilities, Arch Madness, future realignment in the Valley, conference challenges, scheduling and Bryce Drew to GCU.

You can fast forward through the first 45 minutes of "banter" ;) as Baker and Vance put it but a real great show by all 3.
Paul, I loved your interview in this podcast. It was fantastic and made me feel very hopeful for the future of Valpo and the MVC in general. Sounds like the league is starting to get a bit more aggressive in trying to continue to improve itself. I'm very excited. I want to pick your brain about a few (perhaps lower tier in relation to most of the others mentioned) expansion options for the MVC. If We're looking at NKU doesn't it also make sense to look about an hour or so north to Wright State? They are the other power in the HL and would create a ready rivalry between NKU and Wright State that already exists as well as giving Valpo fans an interesting and familiar opponent which might help draw them to games. (That said, I feel like fans came to the Wright State games because they mattered in the conference race and that was their primary reason for coming not because of Wright State itself. Still, there is a history there that we can't ignore. No offense, but if we're going to gamble on an HL team taking the next big leap, I would take Wright State well before I would even look in Milwaukee's direction; even though Milwaukee can and would be a good program if they ever stabilized things on the administrative level and found the right coach.)Wright State may lack the major city location and they are second to Dayton in that city; furthermore, they haven't been as successful as NKU. In spite of that, they still have beautiful facilities and draw similar numbers to NKU in addition to being really good at other sports that matter to the Valley like baseball. Ditto for the Dakotas (NDSU and SDSU). NDSU has been pretty good at baseball and softball and just won the SL tournament. SDSU is their partner in dominating the SL and often brings a lot to women's hoops as well. In addition to bringing the MVFC more under direct MVC control which might help stabilize the conference even more. What do you think about these three schools?
Here's how I rank our expansion options:
1A. SLU
1B. Murray State
1C. Belmont (I'm starting to think they might be willing to come to the MVC now that Rick Byrd is gone. I think he was the #1 anti MVC voice at Belmont because he didn't want to adjust to a new conference so late in his career.)
2. NKU
3. Wright State (would only be added to round out to an even number in my mind because they haven't taken the next step yet)
4A. SDSU
4B. NDSU
5. Milwaukee
6. UIC
7. Oral Roberts
8. USD
9. Omaha
10. UMKC
(Anyone below #4B I really don't want unless they show something over a period of years. 1A-4B I would be varying degrees of thrilled to not upset if we added them now.
Solid new episode, talking all the goings on in the league today, touch on Doug Elgin's announcement and are joined by Joe Dalfonso, the moderator for the Arch Madness pressers. He was also the SID at Bradley for over 2 decades. Awesome interview and fun show as always, check it out.

Found their latest episode pretty interesting. Baker and Vance talk pre-season rankings and awards. They are then joined by Jim Root from three-man-weave.com to discuss his MVC Preview. They talk a fair amount about Valpo and some of the difficulties of predicting where they might be ranked and then pretty predictably have us slotted at 8th and 9th understandably based on the lose of JFL, Ryan and John. Perhaps most interesting was the guy from three-man-weave.com picking Dalton Banks, a Salukis freshman from Eau Claire, WI as the preseason freshman of the year. Mr. Root is from Wisconsin and seems to be a fan of all things Wisconsin but relegated Jacob Ognacevic to helping fill the outside shooting role left open by the departure of Ryan. He talked about watching a lot of video of Dalton Banks but seemed ignorant of Ognacevic despite the fact that Jacob seems to have a better resume, other than the fact that he played in the small school division.

Dalton Banks
Two-time first-team All-State selection. Named All-Northwest boys basketball player of the year. Two-time conference player of the year. Three-time All-City honoree. Averaged 24.7 points, 10.6 rebounds, and 5.2 assists per game as a senior and led Eau Claire North to the regional championship. Eau Claire North's all-time leading scorer, setting the record in his junior year.
Jacob Ognacevic
Named to The Associated Press All-State First Team following his senior season at Sheboygan Lutheran in 2019-20 while also earning Herald Times Player of the Year, All-Big East Conference Player of the Year and Wisconsin Basketball Coaches Association All-State First-Team status... Was a finalist for Wisconsin Mr. Basketball. Became the 38th player in the history of Wisconsin high school basketball to accumulate 2,000 career points. Led the state in scoring at 39.4 points per game as a senior and finished his prep career with 2,501 points, sixth in the history of the state of Wisconsin. Averaged 16 rebounds per game during his senior season. Became just the third player in the history of Wisconsin High School basketball to score more than 1,000 points in a single season, finishing his senior year with 1,024 and would have likely set the state's single-season record if it weren't for the COVID-19 shutdown. Shattered the Sheboygan Lutheran scoring record that was previously held by Sam Dekker, who played in the NBA from 2015-2019.
Has anyone ever heard of an Indiana HS I-A player averaging 40 PPG? I know I haven't. When was the last time an IN 1-A player was a finalist for Mr. Basketball? What Jacob did was an amazing accomplishment, regardless of the level of competition. Obviously, he is making a bigger leap than most, and it may take a season before he's ready to contribute, but that's ok. I have a good feeling about him.

Has anyone ever heard of an Indiana HS I-A player averaging 40 PPG? I know I haven't. When was the last time an IN 1-A player was a finalist for Mr. Basketball? What Jacob did was an amazing accomplishment, regardless of the level of competition. Obviously, he is making a bigger leap than most, and it may take a season before he's ready to contribute, but that's ok. I have a good feeling about him.
I had mentioned this in a post months ago, but I talked with a neighbor who is a high school coach in Wisconsin (in a larger school division) about Jacob. He said that he was surprised that Jacob did not draw attention from bigger schools (Wisconsin, Minnesota) as he felt Jacob has the right size and all the skills necessary to play at the highest level (obvious comparisons to Sam Dekker, who played at the same high school).
A really good interview with Paul about Valpo Basketball
https://twitter.com/NWIOren/status/1321992736308973568
I think Paul and Redbird fans have developed a lot of mutual liking for one another. I do like the camaraderie of this conference. It feels like we all know we're together with other great programs so there's a lot of mutual respect even though the rivalries can be pretty fierce. It's really nice.

Dugger, I believe, was one of the teams used in the movie "Hoosiers" at least one of the teams on the scoreboard.

Some thoughts on his 7th place ranking for Valpo--and oh, by the way, The Beacons is unique or would you rather be a Rambler (?) a Tree or a Bulldog? (Now there is a real unique one!)
Not sure why he said Kithier had a "rough run" at Michigan State. He started 14 games last season and Tom Izzo said he was starting because "he never makes mistakes". I'm pretty sure Kobe King started every game he played at Wisconsin. Any Valley schools able to say the same? Not much mention of our adding Oklahoma's Mr. Basketball or having three Mr. Basketballs on the roster--and a Wisconsin Associated Press First Team selection who is a WALK-ON!!! Can any other Valley team say that?
The biggest thing will be Valpo's improvement in shooting. Anderson replaces Sackey, Taylor replaces Clay, etc. Those two guys shot 20% or worse from the 3. We have added a BUNCH of good shooters which will no doubt open things up for Krikke and Kithier. expect Ben to be much improved.
Finally, in spite of our limited talent last year, we split with four of the six teams ranked above us. We have added more talent than any Valley team. Three BIG transfers, one additional Mr. Basketball and one of the top D2 players in the country. Should be a fun year!

If you want to learn more about the other 9 teams, it's worth a listen. If you want to hear anything about Valpo, don't waste your time. We were the only team that didn't receive a mention during the preview segment.
Thank you for listening, and don't worry, I'm 3 episodes from now, we will do a full Valpo preview.

I don't think most Valley fans (MarchArchPod included) have written off our new talent. What they have written off is the coaching and or leadership ability of Matt Lottich. This could change quickly if he and they can win.
I don't get it. Yes, I know that I am biased, but how does the team that brings in 4 B1G players, one of the best players in Div II, and the best recruiting class according to Verbal Commits get virtually no mention in this podcast. Indiana State is the most intriguing team?? Ok, they have a new coach who has a great reputation in DII and is going to try to play uptempo along with 3 DII transfers and some decent new recruits. How does that compare to the almost complete retool of Valpo's roster? There are a thousand questions about Valpo's team,here are just a few main ones: Will Kobe King play well with others? Can Joe Hedstrom ever reach pre knee injury expectations. Does Kevion Taylor's game translate well from DII to DI? Can the talented freshman class (most of whom probably expected to getting significant minutes) adjust to playing behind the more experienced transfers? where do Sheldon Edwards and Connor Barrett fit into the mix behind the transfers? How long, if at all, will it take for this team to gel? Other than Krikke, Valpo will have upgrades at every position. I think, as a former college assistant coach, that Valpo has the widest range of potential outcomes of any team in the valley depending upon the answers to these and many other questions.

MarchArchPod, you could have at least mentioned that Valpo had a lot of changing parts, as do many other schools, but maybe not as many changing parts as Valpo, and mentioned the great potential and if you do have suspect thoughts of Lottich and the coaching staff then mention it. But to leave out Valpo is very condesending in my view and says "Valpo isn't worth mentioning" to all it's fans. Our fans know that you can never count Valpo MBB out of any game. You should have known this by now.
If the podcast couldn't even be bothered to mention Valpo (I didn't listen as I am insulted), then stop posting about it here. That is just disrespectful and poor reporting. If it is a MVC podcast, all teams should be analyzed. Leaving one team off, you just lost all credibility with this basketball fan.

When asked about the MCV being a guard-centric league the guest, Jordan Majeskey at about 48:25 of the podcast, stated that Valpo was bringing in high major guards and wings. That pretty much sums up the Valpo analysis for this podcast. In all fairness they will be reviewing each team in later podcasts. I don't think that they intentionally snub Valpo, I just think that they are more familiar with the established teams in the Valley and are biased towards their alma maters, that is just natural. Let's face it, other than the tournament run we have not given them a whole lot to talk about unless you count injuries and transfers. It really is a good listen despite not getting a lot of Valpo talk. I hope we force that to change when the season gets underway.

I have no reason to think it was an intentional snub. That said, I think the biggest interest Valpo fans would have in listening to a lengthy conference podcast that featured team-by-team projections (including thoughts from a guest analyst who does this for a living) is "what do they think about us?" I merely pointed out that if that's what your interest is, don't bother because you're going to be very disappointed.

My biggest worry is still our interior defense. Kithier couldn't defend well in the BIG 10 and Hedstrom was never healthy enough to be handed the opportunity. If together they can hold Valley centers and penetrators nearly in check then our upside is enormous. If they and Krikke struggle with inside defense then we will win when our 3's drop and usually lose when they don't. Fortunately our 3 point % might jump 3 or 4 points but I dislike relying on it to win games.

Exactly who did we have playing interior defense last year?? Ben did a decent job, the problem was that there literally was no one else. Mileek, Jacob... neither one saw more than 13 minutes a game, Jacob played defense like a freshman and Mileek never played smart defense. Connor, Donovan... I was surprised at how intense Connor played defensively, but physically I have to think the new guys will be better and Donovan was a good maybe great perimeter defender who loved to block shots but did not really play interior defense. Goodnews, Nick... Goodnews was pretty hard-nosed but didn't see the court enough and wasn't going to consistently battle the bigs inside, Not much to say about the Nick situation other than I am sorry it ended that way. Emil, injured all but two games, let's hope he stays healthy and can contribute. He played some promising minutes his frosh season.
I agree that the big "IF" is can Hedstrom stay healthy and give us 22 minutes or more a game. Who would I rather have going against Gaige Prim... Krikke, Hedstrom and Kithier or Krikke and the rest of last years team?? I will take Krikke and the B1G guys (the MVC can be physicall, but the B1G is brutal) seven days a week and twice on Sundays.

This brings us full circle to sum up our totally off the radar Valley status. Everybody sees the obvious improvements that sit right under their noses and are projecting great things for their traditional core of MVC teams. Meanwhile it is easier for Valley fans to dismiss us than to research us. I like this position :thumbsup: and if we don't put it all together until conference play it will have some advantages.

Absolutely, but the level of our inside improvement should determine the cap on our total improvement. Our perimeter play should be excellent but will compete against other excellent Valley perimeters. What goes on under and around the basket will likely determine seeding in St. Louis.
For any team I follow and someone generally discussing the league, not much time is given to a team who finishes near the bottom regularly. I think it's tough for us as fans because we are used to being on the top. He/she said a more detailed episode is coming up to discuss us, but if they are catering this to MVC fans I'm sure the time is going to be spent on teams at the top. And if my team was on or near the top and a podcast spent time talking about teams on the bottom, I'd turn it off. Again, why this season is so important because talent wise it's our best and the longer we are at the bottom that is more engrained in others perception of us.
The MVC is fun to be in. I feel the guy up at UWM tried to get some league wide Fandom going but too many teams there just didn't care.
We finished tied for fifth.p

Great Podcast about Valpo with guest Paul Oren. Really worth a listen for Valpo fans.
I'm sorry but this podcast is just bad. It's hard to listen to them. Thank you Paul for saving the latest episode. Ranking Valpo low has nothing to do with it. I personally would also until I see them play.
It just doesn't flow, they don't know their stuff, and they certainly are not basketball experts to speak to it.
I'm being harsh but even my kids said who are these guys and turn it off.

IMO the podcasters are missing the boat in their dismissive attitude toward our new transfer-in players. They're thinking "same old same old," meaning another year of revolving door player instability. You can't build a program that way, blah, blah, blah. What is different this year is that the bloated transfer portal was full of talented players looking for a new home. Valpo took full advantage of that to dramatically improve its overall player profile. Players from the past like Mileek McMillan, for example, wouldn't even make this roster. Other teams like Drake and Missouri State, for instance, are loaded because of this 5th year eligilibility anomoly, but they have some major shoring up to do when this year is over. We should be strong this year, but stronger yet next season. Oh, and don't forget, we have this year's strongest freshman recrutiing class, hands down. The other thing these guys seem to be conveniently forgetting is even with players like Mileek and all the revolving door issues we're had, we still finished higher than their alma maters - Illinois State and Southeren Illinois. So, as dysfunctional as they make us out to be, they had better hope we never get it figured out, or we're going to really leave them in the dust. How embarrassing would it be to the league's old guard programs to have the 2 newest kids on the block take residence at the top of the league, like the 2 programs they replaced. Who knows if that will will ever happen, but IMO the odds are better than the odds of ILSU and SIU passing Valpo any time soon.
Thanks for listening!

MarchArchPod, always appreciate your guys podcast. A podcast idea suggestion, is once coaching jobs open up (hopefully we'll have an opening a few days after Arch Madness...) you guys should speculate who would be good fits for the hires for the program.
I can not understate the eagerness with our fanbase to move on from the Lottich era...

Why do we let these guys on our message board? Let them promote on Twitter.
It's fine to have their podcast link on our board. They have some good information regarding our fellow conference schools' basketball programs. HOWEVER, IMO, their posts belong in a different string. This is the Valpo Basketball string. Their periodic "March to the Arch" posts should go on the Around the Valley string.
Perhaps our admin could move their posts there and request them to henceforth always post there going forward.
They never have anything good to say about Valpo, not that they missed anything. I'm just not interested in hearing criticism from 2 guys whose schools haven't been to the NCAA tournament in decades.
We haven't deserved respect or anything to this point. I think we can all agree on that.
But we still need to keep our fingers on the pulse of the MVC.
This is a view into the keyhole. Why not take a peek?
I wonder if these posters would be so aggressive as to put their product on our site if our teams were among those dominating the MVC. There is nothing worse than beating a dead horse when he is down.... cheap shots from competitors who have problems of their own.
I just don't find their info that valuable with a lot of inside jokes and I think Paul Oren does a better job of covering the MVC than they do.
Agree WH, 64, and Historyman. If someone wants to give them a peak, just give them a follow on Twitter.
Hey, :twocents: do any of you guys regularly (even sporadically) check the MVCFANS forum??? Yeah, we, as a program, take a lot of hits there (deservedly so) — but not as much as Evansville ::)
Hang in there. There is a point I'm getting to.
I don't post cuz I'm not really good at analyzing basketball, but I lurk daily and recognize maybe 2 or 3 who do post occasionally. Why aren't there more knowledgeable than me Valpo contributors? This is OUR conference and there is virtually no participation by Valpo. I'm gonna get clobbered for this (and I apologize to fellow lurkers): but talk about VU commitment to top level Mid-major basketball??
Anyway, back on topic....
The March to the Arch podcast is promoted on FANS just like it is promoted on our board. As a matter of fact, they place an individual post, as well, on MVC members' forums. If you check other forums I'm sure you'll see the same post we see. I checked just two, UNI and Bradley, and found it. We are not being singled out.
Oh, and yes, wherever we go for conference information there will be snickers about us until we become a real, consistent competitor.
Let me repeat my issue with these MVC board people. Only Bradley (once) and Drake (twice) have represented the MVC in the NCAA tournament in the 6 years we've been in the league. The rest haven't been there in literally decades, yet they have the gall to ridicule our program. They're like spoiled kids who act stuck up because daddy has money and they live in a gated community. There's not a doubt in my mind that Valpo will rise to the top of the league long before they will. In the meantime, I have no interest in anything they have to say.
You make good points, WH, about their collective appearances at the NCAA level — not much to brag about. Yet, as both you, I, and others have lamented, we have, with one exceptional run, been conference basement dwellers pretty much all of our tenure. So the teams that rotate at the top of the conference have a basis to be critical (hell, our board has sometimes been more negative than them). That doesn't mean that what they say is wrong or inaccurate.
And from my angle, I'd rather adhere to the axiom "keep your friends close; keep your enemies closer." ;D
There's no harm in knowing what they are thinking, but there also may be times when a Valpo perspective/explanation/clarification can alter misinformed opinions. But this is all subtlety. Winning on the court sends unmistakeable messages which we all agree on.
It's our Thanksgiving Megasode!! We talk all the goings on around the Valley, preview MTEs, more. We're also joined by FOUR Head Coaches in the Valley. Casey Alexander (Belmont), Darian DeVries (Drake), Josh Schertz (Indiana State) and Luke Yaklich (UIC) all join the show this week. Fun show as always, check it out!
