It’s UE. Always has been, always will.


As a UIS Redbird fan, I can feel your pain. I'll take E-Ville and NIU on Thursday Night. Wait...the Drake/Bradley game got moved to Friday????



Look, another opportunity for the "letter" police.

First post in a year. Talk about being a huge MVC fan or is it a former fan trolling?

If you knew the recruiting budget that Marty has and knew anything about basketball...he's a damn good coach that runs the motion offense better than anyone in the country. There shouldn't be anyone on this forum disparaging any teams. They are in my eyes about as even as they could be. If the UE players stayed healthy all season...they could've just as well been in the top 5 in the Valley. Evidence being the 7 point loss at Loyola and the 31 point blowout vs. SIU (2nd seed). This may be the most entertaining Arch Madness in years. Go Aces.


Agreed completely. I'm good with a little needling the other teams' fans, but man did it used to get out of hand. Crossed the line from needling to harassment. :Cheers:

I just thought it was a bit of an over-reaction. I may have felt the same if it happened to my favorite team. No offense intended. This is exactly why I don't post much.

Don't worry about that. Some people get way too worked up over these things.

People in no way was I belittling Evansville. Unfair for people to believe I would troll them. Was a mistake and thats it. I want to see mid majors all come up so I have a place in my heart for all the teams

Not the letter police...but...like I said...been reading the forum for years. Love it. There is nothing like MVC basketball. I love the goodhearted bantering...as much as the next fella. But...I've been following a lot of these teams since the old MCC days. Parity is the word that describes this league. On any given night...the 10th seeded team could beat the 1st seeded team. It's all about the match ups and who's healthy.

Mid-major basketball is the purest form of collegiate athletics...because these are truly student athletes that will have careers outside of basketball after graduation. With the current FBI investigations going on...I'm proud of coaches like Marty, Greg Lansing, Dan Muller, Ben Jacobson...etc.

Don't sweat it....just an overreaction....regardless if it was intentional or not. Nobody needs to throw fit over something so menial. Maybe it needs a hashtag, #NotMyInitialism

Agreed...we got a lot more to worry about in Evansville right now than if someone mistakenly gets the initials backwards. I enjoyed your post, and completely understood from the depth of it, that it was clearly an honest mistake.

"As a UIS Redbird fan, I can feel your pain. I'll take E-Ville and NIU on Thursday Night. Wait...the Drake/Bradley game got moved to Friday????"

Just to clarify, the quote above is what prompted my call for the "letter" police. Earlier in the thread a poster was called out for not using the appropriate name for Evansville, and just a little later a poster did the same thing to UNI and nobody said a thing. Just calling for some consistency. Way to many posts for me.

Just a little sarcasm on my part...I assumed that was shining through. We're all good,post away!
