Well, apparently Porter and his coaches have done a masterful job recruiting for next season plus !! More height , speed and scoring !
Cannot tell about the Valley except that most will lose a lot of what 'brung" them -- We gain based on that alone.

I will go way out on a limb and say we shall challenge the rump Shockers for supremacy--Why do I say7 "rump" ?? They want to leave and probably will on the promise of bringing in Football-State Politics will help this.

I see our league as a Rambler Illinois St race over the short haul with Trees and Aces coming on shortly after to challenge us.

I like this Valley more and more--Lose WSU --and pick up Valpo Detroit et al--- ( Belmont, Mo KC plus maybe one or two from Ill and In)
While I respect WSU and always have, they have made clear they want to leave--so see ya as they say---We could become stronger because of this.

Now . if Porter can only become the Coach he was the year before last , the RAMBLERS will be on the way back to prominence.
