Hello Flames Fans!
I just wanted to stop in and say hello. I am the proprietor of MVC Beat, a blog that is dedicated to coverage of MVC hoops and MVFC football. The blog is entirely written by and run by myself, a UNI alum that loves the Valley and has a day job. I have taken no money for this, I do it as a labor of love. As an aside, I lived in Chicago for several years and my wife is a UIC alum! She wasn't really into sports as this Twitter thread suggests, but there is some good stuff if you read all the way through to the screenshot of her text to me....
Anyway, I wanted to let you know about my stuff. Some folks enjoy it. I do weekly, often bi-weekly, articles during the season. My most recent article is a ranking of the top ten fourth-year players in the MVC this year. Two Flames made the list.

I have been a proponent of UIC joining the league for some time, especially since Loyola bolted. One of the articles of which I am most proud is below. I took a deep dive on all the MVC expansion candidates at the time including UIC

I usually keep a thread running on the MVC boards (except Mo State since they won't let me join for some reason, and now Belmont because they apparently don't have one) where I leave links to my articles after I post them. Hopefully I can be allowed to do that here as well, if it doesn't annoy you all too much.
That's all. I just wanted to introduce myself and my blog. Welcome to the Valley, and I hope to see you all at Arch Madness next year. It is a blast. I'll probably be buying my wife some UIC/MVC gear. I see ya'll becoming my second favorite MVC squad.
