When Kadar Waller walks around campus, he notices a different energy. When he's going to class, the junior guard sees posters of the team's players. And when he gets to the team's gym, no matter the time of day, he sees teammates working out.
Those might seem like small, relatively innocuous observations for a lot of basketball programs, but for Mississippi Valley State, it's noteworthy.
For the past couple of years, those posters around campus were outdated, featuring players from seasons past. But now, according to senior guard Terry Collins, the athletic department has a photographer who attends games and most practices.
