It’s difficult to overstate how big the events of Wednesday were for the Missouri State men’s basketball program.
The Bears have a roster in place that should be able to contend in the Missouri Valley Conference from start to finish next year. Should be the favorite, actually.
I know, I know … you’ve heard that before.
Including from me. I picked them to finish 23-8 last season, which was more than just a little bit off from the 17-16 finish.
But Wednesday has me believing.
