Interesting to note I think he has a brother playing for Minnesota in the B1G.  Also he went to the same high school as the new QB commit Tanner Zolnosky (East Ridge).

Re: OVC News

Not sure where to put this but saw the Ford Center in Evansville put in a bid to host the MVC women's tourney, which is currently held at the Mark (or whatever its current name is) in Moline,IL.   The Drake and UNI fans would hate that.  I saw the Semis and Final this year, they both brought a lot ...

Re: Transfer portal

When do we get to the point when a D1 coach uses a local CC for his personal "development" school.  Recruits them and seasons them a year or two at the CC hoping it pays off.

Re: Basketball Posteason Tournaments

Congrats to Greg Kampe and Oakland.  40 years at the helm.  How could you ever root against this guy?  Even Coach Mo loved him.

Re: 2023-2024 season

Looks like they got a commitment from Kayden Carter, a JUCO guy from Oklahoma. So I assume that was what Coach B tweets was about. Carter is 6'7" and is listed as a soph, so i assume he would have at least 2 yrs, maybe 3 for WIU.       Looks like he had a year at Seminole State (JUCO)  and Okl...

Re: 2023-2024 season

Did Western Illinois turn down a CBI bid? I saw that there are only 15 teams in the CBI tournament this year when there is suppose to be 16 teams.    i wonder too if we turned down a bid, seeing some of the teams in some of the lower post season tournaments is kinda shocking. I'm not upset if they ...

Re: Transfer portal

Webster went to the big 10 and got solid minutes.  for some reason I don’t think Lee will follow the same path.      Are we putting muscle on our guys while we got'em?  I can only think of 2 players in the last 12 years that changed their bodies while at WIU (McAvoy and Big Mike) and I think they d...

Re: Transfer portal

Not surprised but I see KJ Lee has entered the portal also.   I really thought he had a chance to be one of the main guys this year but he just looked uninterested when out there      I think he lost confidence/interest coming off the bench for not too meaningful minutes.  Could he be the next Kobe...
