and also have a list by conference... - http://insider.espn.go.com/ncb/recru...acker%2fschool

Here's the MVC - http://insider.espn.go.com/ncb/recru...6season%3d2010


But in the discussion of the Best of the Rest - they seem to totally discount the MVC...
note the hype they give to Saint Louis, Georgia Southern, Montana, VCU, Fairfield, Stetson, etc...
and the only two Valley schools with even the tiniest mention are "Honorable Mention" - Creighton & Drake.
