I realize they probably won't get in, but they have to at least be on the watch list. I know they lack marquee victories and just lost to Drake by 30 on national television, but you cannot overlook the fact that they finished second in the missouri valley by three games...and also made it to the tournament final against Drake....They also took Drake down to the wire in both regular season games, I just think it's a team that needs to be considered. They may not have any marquee wins, but they also did not feed off the bottom of division one basketball, they played many quality middle of the pack opponents......Thank you Clark, I believe I made my case........

Nothing wrong with campaigning for ISU.  A good record at 13-5 conference, 21-9 overall, and a school reeling from a horrible, murderous rampage.  Missouri Valley Conference deserves 2 in the dance.

NIU is where the shootings took place.

23-9 and a multi-game margin for second place in the 8th ranked conference.

An RPI in the 30's.

The silly thing is, the consensus for Illinois State seemed to be, win one game in the Valley Tourney and they were in.  They win two, and then put up that poor showing in the championship and now people are not so sure.

I think just about EVERY bubble team lost in the first or second round of their conference tourney, and based on that I think Illinois State will be in come Selection Sunday............
