There are a lot of newcomers in the MVC this year - seems way more than most years...
Here's a list of all the freshmen in the MVC- 48 in total! (RS=redshirt freshman) - there are also a lot of new juco kids

Bradley- Koch Bar, Nate Kennell, Jayden Hodgson, Darrell Brown, Jr., Jerome Merritt, Lou Griffith
Drake- Johannes Dolven (RS), Nick Girardi, Will Halfon
Evansville- Dru Smith, Jaiveon Eaves, Jonathan Hall, Silas Adheke
ISU- Andre Washington, Madison Williams, Matt Hein (RS), Isaac Gassman
Indiana State- Jordan Barnes, Bronson Kessinger (RS), Trey Knight (RS), Matt Deady, Ethan Claycomb
Loyola- Cameron Satterwhite, Bruno Skokna, Matt Chastain, Igor Cvorovic, Jake Baughman, Cameron Woodyard
Missouri State- Greg Williams, Ross Owens
UNI- Juwan McCloud, Tanner Lohaus, Isaiah Brown, Hunter Rhodes, Luke McDonnell (RS), Justin Dahl (RS), Lincoln Conrey (RS), Spencer Haldeman (RS), Rafael DeSouza
SIU- Brendan Gooch, Aaron Cook, Jeremy Roscoe, Bernard Cherestal, Chrishawn Cook

Any early guesses who will be All-Freshman? I think Shamet will, then maybe one or two of the BU freshmen since they'll get a lot of opportunity...

Dolven is not injured. He just isn't good enough to break into the rotation.
Girardi and Halfon are walk-ons, so nothing is expected of them.
 
I expect the late loss of Dominik Olejniczak will really hurt this year- as they had no chance to recruit to replace him

I know you can't always tell from an exhibition - but I am surprised at how many freshmen played very well...
guys like Bar & Brown, Jr for Bradley, Williams, Gassman & Washington for ISU, Barnes & Kessinger for InSU, McCloud, Shamet..
 
Just for another comparison - here's how some of the MVC's FRESHMEN have done so far in their first season
I have highlighted the top dozen performers as freshmen - if they've played in at least half their team's games


Bradley-
Koch Bar 6.3 ppg, 6.2 rpg, 2.0 bpg
Nate Kennell 4.8 ppg, 44.4% on 3-pointers
Jayden Hodgson 3.5 ppg, 1.3 rpg, 1.2 apg
Darrell Brown, Jr. 15.5 ppg, 3 apg
Jerome Merritt redshirting
Lou Griffith redshirting

Drake-
Johannes Dolven (RS), played 2 games, scoreless, no rebs
Nick Girardi has not played
Will Halfon has not played

Evansville-
Dru Smith 3.7 ppg, 1.8 rpg, 2.3 apg
Jaiveon Eaves 0.7 ppg, 2.3 rpg
Jonathan Hall has not played - reports say he is redshirting - LINK
Silas Adheke has not played - redshirting

ISU-
Andre Washington 1 ppg, 0.7 rpg
Madison Williams 1.3 ppg, 0.7 rpg
Matt Hein (RS) scoreless, no rebs or assists
Isaac Gassman has not played, redshirting

Indiana State-
Jordan Barnes 7.7 ppg, 3.2 rpg
Bronson Kessinger (RS) 2.7 ppg, 2.3 rpg
Trey Knight (RS) 3.0 ppg, 1.5 rpg in two games played
Matt Deady has not played
Ethan Claycomb has not played

Loyola-
Cameron Satterwhite 4.9 ppg, 2.3 rpg
Bruno Skokna 4.6 ppg, 1.8 rpg
Matt Chastain 3.7 ppg, 3.0 rpg but now redshirting due to medical issues
Igor Cvorovic 2 pts, 4 rebs in one game played
Jake Baughman 0.7 ppg, 0.3 rpg in 3 games played
Cameron Woodyard 2 ppg, 1 rpg on 2 games played

Missouri State-
Greg Williams has not played - may redshirt
Ross Owens 1.7 ppg, 0.7 rpg

UNI-
Juwan McCloud 3.2 ppg, 1.6 rpg, 2.0 apg
Tanner Lohaus has not played - this article says he is redshirting - LINK
Isaiah Brown 5.0 ppg, 2 rpg in 2 games played
Hunter Rhodes 2.0 ppg, 1.0 rpg, 0.8 apg
Luke McDonnell (RS) 1.5 ppg, 1.5 rpg in 2 games played
Justin Dahl (RS) 4.5 ppg, 2.5 rpg in 2 games played
Lincoln Conrey (RS) scoreless in 1 game played
Spencer Haldeman (RS) 7 ppg, 3 rpg
Rafael DeSouza scoreless in 1 game played

SIU-
Brendan Gooch has not played and this article says he will redshirt - LINK
Aaron Cook 3.2 ppg, 1.2 rpg, 1.8 apg
Jeremy Roscoe has not played - academically ineligible and paying his own way this year in hopes of playing next year - LINK
Bernard Cherestal scoreless in 1 game played
Chrishawn Cook scoreless in 1 game played

Wichita-
CJ Keyser 1.6 ppg, 0.8 rpg
Austin Reaves 8.3 ppg, 3.0 rpg, 2.3 apg
Landry Shamet (RS) 12 pts, 3 rebs, 7 asst
Brett Barney (RS) 2.0 ppg, 0.8 rpg


I guess the ones that surprise me so far given the early hype - are Juwan McCloud, CJ Keyser, and Matt Chastain
McCloud has started every game and is one of the top freshmen in minutes played so far- but shooting just 19%
Keyser has as many turnovers as assists, made FG's, and made 3-pt FG's combined
Bradley has struggled, but a lot of our talent is still quite young and will improve - but what can you say for Drake? As bad as they are, they're a veteran team with virtually no help coming down the pipeline.


Right now, only 6 MVC freshmen are averaging 5ppg or more - and a look back showed that the Valley had TEN freshmen LAST YEAR who averaged 5 ppg or more

Keyser missed the vast majority of the pre-season with multiple foot injuries. That put him behind. He's about the 12th man in rotation right now and basically only plays in mop up minutes with the walk-ons. He's shown his athletic ability, but is definitely a freshman. He doesn't have the same mindset that Shamet and Reaves have shown. I don't expect him to get too many critical minutes this year, but still will be good in the coming years.
 
Here's the current stats on the Valley's top freshmen

Darrell Brown, Jr. 15.3 ppg, 2.1 rpg, 2.7 apg
Landry Shamet (RS) (WSU) 8.6 ppg, 2.9 rpg, 2.4 apg
Koch Bar 7.9 ppg, 7.3 rpg
Jordan Barnes (Indiana State) 7.7 ppg, 3.2 rpg
Spencer Haldeman (RS) (UNI) 7.0 ppg, 3 rpg
Austin Reaves (WSU) 7.0 ppg, 2.6 rpg
Cameron Satterwhite (LU) 4.9 ppg, 2.3 rpg
Bruno Skokna (LU) 4.6 ppg, 1.8 rpg
Nate Kennell 4.5 ppg, 1 rpg
Dru Smith (Evansville) 3.7 ppg, 1.8 rpg
Jayden Hodgson 3.3 ppg, 1.4 apg
Juwan McCloud (UNI)3.2 ppg, 1.6 rpg, 2.0 apg
 
Updated....we have some optimism here...
Here's the current stats on the Valley's top freshmen

Darrell Brown, Jr. 12.5 ppg, 2.2 rpg, 2.7 apg
Landry Shamet (RS) (WSU) 10.8 ppg, 2.7 rpg, 3.0 apg
Spencer Haldeman (RS) (UNI) 8.8 ppg, 2.3 rpg
Jordan Barnes (Indiana State) 6.7 ppg, 2.6 rpg
Koch Bar 5.8 ppg, 5.5 rpg
Nate Kennell 5.5 ppg, 1.8 rpg, .455 3-pt shooting (.542 in MVC play - 2nd best)
Austin Reaves (WSU) 5.4 ppg, 2.3 rpg
Dru Smith (Evansville) 4.8 ppg, 2.8 rpg
Jayden Hodgson 4.6 ppg, 1.4 rpg, 1.5 apg, .364 3-pt shooting but .519 in MVC play (3rd best)
Luke McDonnell (RS) (UNI) 4.4 ppg, 2.7 rpg
Bruno Skokna (LU) 4.2 ppg, 2.0 rpg
Juwan McCloud (UNI) 4.0 ppg, 1.3 rpg, 1.6 apg
Aaron Cook (SIU) 3.4 ppg, 1.0 rpg
Javeion Eaves (Evansville) 3.2 ppg, 2.0 rpg
Cameron Satterwhite (LU) 3.1 ppg, 1.3 rpg
Isaiah Brown (UNI) 2.4 ppg, 1.3 rpg


There are several others - including a couple 2nd year (redshirt) freshmen but their scoring averages are 2ppg or less.


I think the top 4 on the list have a spot on the MVC All-Freshman Team - and the spot is theirs to lose...
the 5th spot on the All Freshman team ought to go to one of the other 3 BU freshman who have all logged heavy minutes and a lot of responsibility even tho the Braves will not finish high in the standings.

Reaves is going to get a lot of consideration for that last spot. He's been extremely productive in limited minutes. The biggest thing that will hurt him is if he continues to miss games due to his shoulder. Extremely high Ortg, I believe leads the league in 3pt%, and consistently makes plays when he's in the game.
 
I agree, I had thought about Reaves, but the Shox are so deep that even in the games where he doesn't play, they barely miss him - so I wondered that might hurt his chances..

Plus his numbers are declining down the stretch..he's only made 4 baskets in the last SEVEN games...two of which he didn't play at all and two more he was scoreless
He has only 42 points & 24 rebounds total in their 11 MVC games.

I disagree with your first statement and agree with the second.

We missed him the last 2 games. He may not have put up numbers, but he makes plays and provides a spark. His energy is contagious when he comes in. I think you guys saw that in the game here at CKA.

But yes, his numbers have declined a bit. There is still time for him to turn it around. He missed the last two with an injury.

Juwan McCloud (UNI) 4.0 ppg, 1.3 rpg, 1.5 apg, .191 3-pt ahooting

left off those under 4.0 ppg


Gotta think the Freshman of the Year will be one of the top two guys, and that the All Freshman team will be five of the top 8 or 9 guys
 
I think BOTH Nate Kennell, and especially Jayden Hodgson served notice last night that their names ought to at least be in the conversation when it comes to FRESHMAN OF THE YEAR
I know they won't get as broad of consideration as Shamet & Brown since both Kennell & Hodgson are coming on really strong down the stretch and a lot of the teams, coaches, MVC media have not seen then during this stretch that they have been playing so well and carrying the Braves to wins.


Anyway - here are the updated numbers for the prominent MVC freshmen:

Darrell Brown, Jr. 12.4 ppg, 2.2 rpg, 2.9 apg
Landry Shamet (RS) (WSU) 11.0 ppg, 2.6 rpg, 3.3 apg, .447 3-pt shooting but .507 in MVC play
Spencer Haldeman (RS) (UNI) 7.6 ppg (but 6.2 in MVC play and only 3.0 ppg since Feb. 1st), 2.2 rpg, .324 3-pt shooting
Jordan Barnes (Indiana State) 6.3 ppg, 2.6 rpg, .348 3-pt shooting
Koch Bar 5.8 ppg, 5.3 rpg
Nate Kennell 5.8 ppg, 1.7 rpg, 1.7 apg, .439 3-pt shooting (.478 in MVC play - 4th best)
Jayden Hodgson 5.3, 1.8 rpg, 1.9 apg, .417 3-pt shooting but .545 in MVC play (BY FAR the best in MVC play)

Dru Smith (Evansville) 5.4 ppg, 2.6 rpg, .282 3-pt shooting
Austin Reaves (WSU) 4.6 ppg (but only 15 points total over the last 10 games), 1.9 rpg
Donovan Franklin (InSU) 4.2 ppg, 1.5 rpg, .264 3-pt shooting
Juwan McCloud (UNI) 3.9 ppg, 1.3 rpg, 1.5 apg, .191 3-pt shooting

left off the rest under 4.0 ppg but I think we can drop the bottom 3 or 4 from contention...as their impact on their team and their team's wins has been considerably less than the rest


BTW- various preseason previews & writeups had named Shamet (LINK), McCloud (Lindy's Preseason Preview picked McCloud as Newcomer of the Year), and Jordan Barnes as their Preseason Freshman of the Year


The absolute worst preseason preview of all was this one, they missed just about everything by a mile.

Brown is great and a REALLY good building block for you guys going into the future. That said, Shamet will get votes for MVC POY, so I can't see anyone passing him up for FOY. He is one of the key leaders on the most dominant team in the league.
