Valley Schedule is Released

[tornado]

Press still doesn't have it but it should be made public by Friday...
...but Coach Les states..
"Much better than last year"
"BU starts with 4 of 6 .. on the road
then next 5 of 8 at home with all the big games coming while students are ON CAMPUS!"

According to this blog by the Illinois State beat writer, the Valley has sent the schedule out to the schools but asked that they not release it until Friday.-

He also gives a bit of insight after watching some of the new Redbird players scrimmage.

sounds like at least 3 of the newcomers should be starters from day 1, Osiris will have a hard time cracking the lineup

I read the same article and I didn't interpret things that way. I didn't see anyone declare a starter. I just read that Benson predicts two of the freshmen will make an impact and another newcommer will be a factor also. Like you mentioned in another thread however......predicting is tough to do.

I would guess OE would still be a starter. Maybe not though. Anything is possible I guess. I suppose if OE gets beaten out it's good for ISU and very bad for the rest of the league. I hope you are correct.

but wasn't everyone planning on them starting the walk on Lewis?

I don't know. That "Scout" guy that posts on here thinks so. But he also claimed that Champ Oguchi was a walk-on so who knows?? I would guess Jank knows who 2 and maybe 3 of his starters are. The other spots will be determined in pre-season. That's my guess. There are options though.

as it should be...and hopefully by the start of the season he'll know who all five are

I also thought it was funny that isu's "official" blogger claims their highest priced single-game tickets only cost $10. Go to their website and it clearly shows tickets cost up to $16.

And that has been asked and answered... and now changed...

I believe there are no "two seats" single tickets available in the lower bowl. Only single seat, single game tickets, due to the season ticket sales...
