5 New Coaches, only 1 all league player back (Duke Deen at Bradley), only 2 teams return 3 or more starters (Bradley and UNI).Just saw news about Indiana State coach leaving. Top 2 teams in valley lose their coaches and their rosters implode because of it. Valley is truly up for grabs.
Going to be a wild year in that league.

It just keeps sinking towards that low-major category. Drake should be trying to escape to the A10 any way they can.
LOL. No.
The Valley finished 9th in the NET this year in front of the American and WCC and just fractionally behind the A10. The American and A10 were one bid leagues too without tournament shenanigans.
I think you're thinking of the MAC which finished 23rd (!) this year.
How is the MVC not stable? It's lost 3 teams over 11 years and has done very well with replacements (other than Valpo).
The only school that would have options to leave is Belmont and they've been notoriously slow to make moves. They had a Valley invite for 6 years before they finally made the jump from the OVC.
The MVC doesn't have football and TV driving the bus. Apples to Volkswagens.
Sad valley used to be among the best mid majors.
Sounds like Scott Drew is on a plane to Lexington, per my Baylor friends
Great coach but just doesn't seem like a great personality/cultural fit. Drew is notoriously quiet and reserved. Kentucky typically seems to like more vocal and outgoing personalities. I could see a Hurley fitting perfect there, but somebody like Drew just seems like an odd fit.
With that said, if Kentucky buys into letting him make the decisions, he should have good success. They're in the Top 3 for almost every historical winning stat (# of wins, winning %, etc) and can get any recruit they want. But NIL is going to be a huge thing there and I'm not sure Drew is going to like that very much.
After the past few years or Calipari brashness to the fans and clashing with AD, it would make sense the Drew's quiet under the radar opposite personality is the classic replacement move if it happens.
I am so ******* ready for Baylor to suck again and cherry on top would be Jerome Tang doing it.
Scott Drew to UK would be interesting. Both KSU fans and Tech fans think Baylor would want their coach.
I think McCasland is a better coach than Tang and should be Baylor's first call
Tech fans probably do not sleep well since they lost Beard to UT, but they were actually pretty fortunate it worked out the way it did.
Honestly I’m think the coach that they have now is excellent.
They did have to deal with the Mark Adams era... not sure they were "fortunate".
