Title: We're #42
Post by: valpo84 on December 22, 2014, 01:28:02 PM
Valpo receives a vote in AP Top 25. We come in at #42: http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/rankings (http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/rankings)

Leave for the historians the last time we received a vote in the AP?

OK, I looked up half-heartedly and it looks like November 2012 when we received 3 votes according to this:

That's pretty cool, unexpected. Surprised GB didn't receive any votes, especially after beating Miami but I guess their losses are worse than our 2.

Also, Buck Futler is receiving one more vote than us now.  TCU is #25, with an absolutely piss poor schedule that has them 11-0.

In case you are curious, the vote in the AP Top 25 for Valpo last week was cast by John Feinstein. This week he switched his vote from Valpo to Army.

After tonight's performance in Harrisonburg...I'm guessing he wants to switch it back!
