Now are the Eagles the OVC’s Top Dogs?
(Evansville, IN) – Morehead State’s Preston Spradlin led the Eagles to an Ohio Valley Conference title two years ago and to the tournament championship game last year. MSU was tabbed as the OVC’s preseason favorite, so we have a question. Are the Eagles the OVC’s top dogs?
During the league’s media day, Spradlin and guards Mark Freeman and Jake Wolfe met with Valley Hoops Insider’s Harry Schroeder.
Morehead lost defensive player of the year Johni Broome to the transfer portal, but Spradlin has reloaded and has a deep and talented roster. Pre-season all-conference guard Freeman returns to the OVC after a season at Illinois State. The former Eastern Kentucky Colonel has demonstrated the ability to score in bunches.
Wolfe is an elite level defender and one of the league’s best three-point shooters.
Spradlin and his players go into great detail to tell us about their re-formed roster.

The Eagles open the season at Indiana and later in the season play West Virginia and Vanderbilt.

Done like only you can @Frank_Cusumano. So perfect. Respectful. Hopeful. Personal. You've always been the best. @DanRolfes, you are in our prayers still today. Thanks for sharing.
As we said the 'closed' transfer portal keeps growing. Paperwork delays and/or no regard for deadlines. Over 2K in the portal now. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with that. Just saying before you think your program won't have more players leaving, give it a minute to see
BTW, despite the portal being 'closed' you'll still hear about players entering it because sometimes paperwork is slow AND all they have to do is sue to be able to enter later.
Admittedly I am no recruiting expert, but I'm seeing these reports about which coaches have been crushing the portal. We'll know who did what when we see them play, but no one has been more active than @TSUTigersMBB's @coachpenny1. 6 D1's among the 9 he's signed.
