Is it possible to create another video or two to change it up? I too agree that it could use more history.

I also agree it could use more historical footage of previous Valpo men's basketball teams. More from the Sweet Sixteen team and shots of the different Mid-Con championships and NCAA appearances, although I realize that many of the NCAA games were not happy experiences, they do count as historical moments for the men's basketball team.

is there any chance of getting a digital display on the front of the scorer's table, like so many other schools have? i was watching the 24 hour basketball marathon on espn last week, and i think it was college of charleston that had one, and that honestly kind of surprised me. i know they're a program on the up and up, but to this point that's almost always been a perk not really seen outside of the bcs conference programs.

I'm pretty sure CofC just built a brand new arena, which is probably why they have such fancy signs.


it opened in 2008, according to wikipedia. so that would make some sense. but i'd be curious to see pictures from that season to see if it was in fact installed originally or has been a recent upgrade. either way, it appears to be a very nice building, with a seating capacity about the same as the arc.

I would imagine that any changes to the video would not be enacted until next year due to various factors.  Good pointers though for next year I am sure!

Speaking of historical footage, where online can I find more from the 1988 Notre Dame-Valpo game? I saw a few seconds of it in the intro and cannot find any more video from it online. Someone used to have the final 10 minutes of the broadcast on youtube, but it got taken down a while ago due to copyright claims...

Agree with everyone here....the video is okay, but could be so much better.  Still waiting for someone to connect the words to the street ball for us....just don't see the connection.
