A quick hello to everyone on the board. Big St. Louis University fan here, and I wanted to stop by the board to get some Valpo fans' take on this Saturday's game.
First and foremost I think I speak for many SLU fans when I express my respect for the Valparaiso program. Bryce Drew is a great coach—one whose name was tossed around for the SLU job once upon a time—and it seems that y'all have a consistently strong program.
I am curious to see how Crusader fans are feeling about the game this upcoming Saturday. The Bills took last year's contest in what was a sloppy game on both sides. I expect this years game to also be a dogfight. SLU returned a lot of talent from last year, but has yet to mesh in the new season. While our defense has been strong, scoring and rebounding have both proved difficult at times. I think it's safe to say we are far from clicking on all cylinders and I'm sure playing at Valpo will not be an easy game.
What kind of team do you all have this year? Is it safe to say Dority is the straw that stirs the drink? Is the freshman Alec Peters the real deal? Is Capobianco turning into a true contributor? Any information you have on how Valpo plays and what team we as SLU fans should expect to see on Saturday would be much appreciated.
Thanks and glad I could stop by. Looking forward to a fun match-up.
P.S. I'm very glad ye olde Keith Carter will not suit up for this one. He will be a very good player for you in time.
