Missouri State vs. Wichita State

[Da Coach]

The 3rd quarterfinal game is Missouri State vs. Wichita State. This is a much better game than I thought it would be. Missouri State is hanging very tough against WSU.
Early in the second half it is tied 31-31-

WSU goes 10 deep with kids who could all start at Bradley. Their depth is impressive.

I do admire what Marshall has done there - I am just pointing out it doesn't always take 4 or 5 years - we have a good possibility of doing it sooner..

Marshall's "inherited" group was - in fact- in complete shambles with player defections and a terrible mess.

his first year was miserable winning only 11 games against a woeful schedule - losing even to teams like Monmouth, UMKC, & Texas-Arlington..
then they won just ONE of their first NINE Valley games - ending with just four league wins and a bad, double-digit loss in BracketBuster to Northern Arizona.
By just about any measure - Marshall was about where we were at the
end of his first year there..
He turned it around before the end of his 2nd season - winning consistently in the 2nd half of the league season - advancing in the MVC Tourney and playing into the post-season.
He had them poised for their next season - a 25-win season followed by a 29-win season....we got next...

and he was exactly 500 in his second year and 8-10 in conference...

we will see how it goes

I do check your online stock search features frequently, but do you have to search all three locations separately?
