March 14, 201610 yr QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 14, 2016 -> 11:26 AM) Fathom vs Rock? How sad is it that getting into the NIT likely saved Gregory's job?

March 15, 201610 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 14, 2016 -> 09:27 AM) I might go over and see Valpo playing their opening NIT game. Should be fun. Got tickets in the 4th row today behind the scorers table after the season ticket holders turned in seats they didn't want.
March 16, 201610 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 15, 2016 -> 04:37 PM) Got tickets in the 4th row today behind the scorers table after the season ticket holders turned in seats they didn't want. Apparently Mike Davis ex of IU post Bobby Knight fame is the Texas Southern Coach. The game was great, Valpo put it away late, and now hosts Florida State Thursday night.
March 17, 201610 yr Got a front row seat for tomorrow nights meeting between Valpo and Florida State. It will be the first time they have played since Valpo beat them to go to the Sweet 16.
March 23, 201610 yr QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Mar 23, 2016 -> 08:12 AM) Valpo and BYU headed to MSG. The Valpo game was great. They allowed St Mary's 13 points over the last 23 minutes of the game. It is really too bad they didn't make the big dance, because this is a really good team.
March 29, 201610 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 29, 2016 -> 06:57 PM) Really want Valpo to lose tonight Suck it Tech-er!
