There appears to be other ways than just straight donating $$$ from ones pocket. I have seen these cans all over Peoria and some of profits go towards their NIL.

Re: 2024 OVC Tournament

Just out of curiosity did anyone's streaming seem discolored? Just seemed like TV had a yellow tint on it whole time nit as good of quality as I was hoping for.

Re: vs UT Martin (2/10/24)

Last three losses could of been fixed with around 70% free throw average. Which from what I can find is still just below the avg for all D1 teams.

Re: At Lindenwood

I would say the biggest threat would be losing the game due to points that could of been had. If we had shot 70% free throw shooting  last night, which seems like a legitimate average as a team, we would have had approximately 5 extra points which is a huge difference in most competitive basketball ...

Re: At Lindenwood

It's nice to celebrate the good things, but coach needs to work daily on cleaning up our free-throw it has been a major issue all season. It is not as noticeable when you win, but it will be huge issue if we can't greatly raise that percentage before end of regular season.

Re: Playing Bradley?

We would be approx an hour closer than SIUE, seems like it would be a simple financial decision from team travel stand point to have a  playing agreement for multiple years.

Re: Playing Bradley?

I am not sure how scheduling works or how they actually come to agreements with schools it would make sense if they have a history. I believe if we played Bradley it would always be an away game which isn't the end of world as it gives us another short drive away game and as I mentioned an opportuni...

Playing Bradley?

I have been curious about this and wanted to ask, does anyone know why we don't schedule games against Bradley in Peoria? Peoria has to be one of our bigger markets for students being that it is only 1.5 hours away and Bradley has to be one of the closest Division 1 schools to us. I always wondered ...

Re: at Eastern Illinois

Doing a quick review of the post season tournament play last year it appears the following teams from OVC actually got to play in a tournament which is good for exposure since these are typically broadcast via ESPN or other network instead of only via streaming which is good for the program & sc...

Re: at Eastern Illinois

This seems like a pointless argument we have moved to OVC for better or worse. Now we need to win games, have successful postseason play (I am fine with them playing in NIT even) and vastly upgrade our facilities. Then maybe in a decade we move to more competitive conference, but we consistently hav...
