  • ESPN' Andy Katz has ruled: MVC IS a Major Conference

    It's official, the BIG SIX has now become the BIG SEVEN.
    MVC has supplanted C-USA as a major conference.

    Andy Katz makes a compelling argument that the Missouri Valley has reached the big time for good.

    What a cool plug for the Valley! Nice to see some at ESPN know what they are watching for a change.

    Now as long as we don't become the 2007 version of the 2005 Atlantic 10 conference (1 bid from 4 bids), we'll be all set!

      Don't see that happening, with three legitimate tournament teams (CU, SIU, WSU) being recognized in preseason publications and others lurking.....

        Agreed, I don't see that happening either. That was a great read and a well-written article by Katz. I hope Coach Williams at Maryland gets a chance to read it.

          BB06: you beat me to it. Maybe Williams will quit crying and scheduke some games with the MVC now. Then again probably not then he wouldn't have anything to cry about.

            I applaud Andy Katz for being a true fan of college basketball who is willing to not fall into the money trap of being a BCS bigot / mouthpiece.

              Just read Andy Katz Article from 18 years ago when there were no Katz Chats or top 36 Rankings! He was a senior writer for ESPN. After reading that article from 2006, I was amazed at how Great the Valley was in getting Multiple Bids to the NCAA tournament! Of course overall the Valley has a great History being 2nd oldest conference as well as at one point or another having many Great teams in the conference! I'm just sad today that the Valley would be lucky to get even 2 teams in the NCAA tourney! Being a 1 bid league doesn't give the conference the intrigue or excitement it use to have.
