Or Northwestern, where the bloom is quickly fading from Little Collins' rose.

Yup. As long as Gar and Pax are running things, stay as close to the Advocate Center as possible.

Moser has a lot of folks fooled. He has a good pedigree but I watched him fumble around and do nothing at Illinois State for multiple seasons. St Johns isn’t the job it was in the early 80s and a good pass by him, but I’d be surprised if he can pull a Marquette or Northwestern type gig.

Then I'm a foolish fool.

Wouldn't Loyola's best move be going to the Big East? That extra dough could go to Moser.

He'll get the Northwestern gig when the Bulls inevitably hire Chris Collins.

Nice win by 30+ to start the season. I wondered why UCD would start the season in Chicago and then heard Jim Les is their coach.

They have a nice group of juniors and what looks to be a nice group of freshman. I'm not sure if they have enough seasoned depth to push for a third straight conference title but they are certainly in the top tier of the MVC.

It's fun to watch Krutwig play. You know guys unfamiliar with his game come in thinking he's just a big, lane clogging kegger before he puts a nifty post move and a great pass to a cutter on them.

I love Lucas Willamson's game. Tough and multi dimensional like all those guys from the Final Four team.

I'll tell you this right now, Kennedy will be a star in a couple of years. He's not really a point guard yet but my goodness did he flash some elite offensive moves in his first college game. If he develops quickly this year they will go from good to great.

go back to not paying attention

A loss at home to an 0-2 team portends a much worse season than I was anticipating.

Meanwhile, Evansville beat Kentucky, so the MVC is going to be tough.

a young team is coming together. Currently sitting at 13-6 and tied for the conference lead. They have a huge game against co leader Northern Iowa later this week. UNI is really good and I could see them getting a bid even without the conference championship

Is there any way possible Loyola can get in the Big East?

14-6 and right on cue, UNI loses on the road to the Salukis. Ramblers alone in first place with the UNI game coming up this weekend.

if they make tourney again he has to cash out and take a better job. i thought it was a mistake he didnt do so after the final four run. ramblers can replace him with a guy who did cash in on tourney success who failed spectacularly.... shaka smart!

edit: i see now in april i made a shaka smart reference... my material needs refreshing

I agree. Last year should have taught a lesson. They returned from the Final Four run with the defending conference POY, the conference freshman of the year and another guy subsequently named conference POY and still didn't make the tournament. Being the hot candidate is a fickle status.

If they can hang on, that would be three straight regular season conference championships and hopefully two NCAA appearances. That would be a pretty nice resume for a step up.

I think he has a kid who is a junior at Loyola Academy, so he may wait one more year.

This is why I ask about the Big East. If you pay the man, Loyola automatically has the resume to jump there, don't they?

does Loyola even have a big enough arena to be in a major conference? The place only holds 5000 people. Wintrust doubles that. I would assume all other Bigeast arenas are much larger than 5000 as well?

Carnasecca Arena holds 5600. Gentile holds 4600. Not that big of a deal, I wouldn't think.

True, but St. John's only plays 3 conference home games at Carnasecca. The rest are at MSG. I doubt Loyola is gonna start playing games at the UC.

from the league's perspective, they are only going to expand for the benefit of the league. Another team in Chicago does nothing for them.

There might be other fits.

A chicago rivalry would be a plus for the league.

They could, not right now, but with a commitment to big time basketball, it's possible.

They could share wintrust or there's rosemont.

Rambler up to #25 in the CBS rankings.

They should be in if they can split with Drake
