St. Louis, MO – He’s Back! Barry Hinson is back in the Missouri Valley Conference and while his Southern Illinois Salukis lost to his rival Missouri State Bears (that all sounds weird doesn’t it?) he is a grateful man and there is just something right about Hinson in the MVC.
S-I-U-C finished with a 14-17 record, but Barry Hinson is a proven winner and will have that program on the rise soon. As a Division One head coach, Hinson is more than 50 games over .500, including a record at Missouri State of 169 – 117.
After the loss to the Bears, Hinson told reporters he’s glad to be back in the Valley.
Illinois State Coach Dan Muller has returned to his alma mater and the league he loves too. Later we’ll have more about that former Redbird player and current head man.
Thanks for logging on to Heartland Hoops Insider!

I haven't heard, nor do I know, how does this apply to the typical 'foreign' basketball player that is most often over 19?
Obviously, this is a sentimental and not a ‘spreadsheet’ notion, but would hate to see @MVCsports change the #ArchMadness format from the traditional ‘family reunion’ feel by cutting teams from the experience. #FatherHarry
Another nice @MVCsports basketball schedule announcement. #FatherHarry . .
Congrats to @ISURedbirdGolf. T.J. Barger sets a school record. Pietro Pontiggia records the Redbirds' second-ever top 20 finish at a regional. The team finishes tent in the region which is tied for the program's best regional finish! #FatherHarry
