NIT- UCF 63 - ISU 62

I think this is one of the reasons why the MVC has a problem staying competitive. Coaches in the Valley do well then they get bought out by bigger programs with more money. You don't get longevity in the programs. Look how many coaches have left the Valley and moved to other schools and done well. Once a coach leaves and you hire a new coach then it may take several years to get the program back to competitive level

Some schools even fire a coach after a 32-3 season record.

Illini have an NIT season and abruptly can their coach..
ISU has an NIT season (despite a dozen arrests on his squad) and the guy is a hot commodity and gonna get hired away for another job...go figure..
