A lot of good options here. Let us know what you think.
Time to hear from you... Who will be the top mid-major player this season? We have a couple of Mountain West studs, a shooting star from Belmont, the return of one of our favorites, and a Bulldog who has that dog in him. https://t.co/yEQfgDY4rO

Great episode this week. Give a listen
Conference preview season continues. @IsaacBourne_ riffs on the OVC. @ianrsacks really likes Navy in the Patriot League. @SoConJohn22 empties his notebook on the SoCon. A lot to unpack in this episode https://t.co/0Q7EJV0H03

News—Loyola Chicago’s men’s basketball team will honor Sister Jean this season by wearing this patch on its jerseys, the program tells CBS Sports. Sister Jean died earlier this month at the amazing age of 106. The ’Blers are expected to be one of the A-10’s best teams, too.

Thank you @nlorensensports for helping grow @mid_madness into what it is.
