Valpo Basketball / Paul Oren Appreciation Thread
March 10, 2020, 12:25:40 AM
I think that it is fair to assume that Valpo fans have enjoyed a really exciting weekend. Most of the credit justifiably go to the MBB program (coaches, players, managers, etc...)
However, I personally feel that the weekend (starting on Thursday) was much more enjoyable because of the great work by Paul. His stories are always interesting (never written by reading a boxscore). He is always right there in the middle of the action, he asks exactly the right questions that fans want answers for, and most importantly, he creates amazing podcasts with great guests.

I, for one, really appreciate how Paul pours his heart and soul into his craft and I don't take his high-quality work for granted.

General VU Discussion / Conference Re-alignment
March 17, 2017, 12:24:50 PM
I found this story from a couple of weeks ago:
https://www.vcuramnation.com/2017/03/vcu-wichita-state-dayton-join-uconn-memphis-others-aac/

If Wichita State truly leaves for the AAC, would we be invited to join the MVC? and if we are invited, is a Wichita-less MVC attractive?

Valpo Basketball / Paul Oren-Thank you
April 09, 2016, 12:36:38 AM
I have followed and rooted for multiple college athletic teams before moving to the area and joining the Valpo family. As a fan, I have had my share of anxious moments when my teams went through big decisions (like a coaching change for example).

A major thing that stood out for me in the whole experience last week was the excellent, accurate, and timely reporting of Mr. Paul Oren. He was always on the ball (both tweeting and writing stories) and never said anything that was less than 100% accurate. I tip my hat to Paul for the great work he has done.  :thumbsup:
