Saluki men's basketball coach Bryan Mullins was on the Missouri Valley Conference's teleconference Tuesday for the league's men's basketball coaches. He was asked questions about scheduling, the summer workouts, and the transfer portal. Take a listen:
After an 11-2 season and just the program's third semifinal appearance, the Murphysboro Red Devils were selected as the John A. Logan College Team of the Year. The Red Devils walked in to the year knowing they would have an elite defense but had question marks all over the offensive side of the ball. Coach of the Red Devils, Gary Carter, talked with Matt Varney about the season, how things look for the 2024 season and beyond, and the catch heard round Southern Illinois that got Murphysboro past Harrisburg in the quarterfinals.
Thursday, John A. Logan men's basketball coach Kyle Smithpeters was announced as an assistant coach to new Missouri coach Dennis Gates. As he prepares to depart for Columbia, Smithpeters gave a parting statement that you can listen to below.
Smithpeters went 241-73 over 10 seasons as the head coach of the Vols and coached a pair of NJCAA Player of the Year in Sean East, who is also headed to Mizzou, and Jay Scrubb who went directly to the NBA after his time at John A. Logan College.
Smithpeters plans to join Sportsvoice on Saturday morning.
For the first time this season, John A. Logan big man Elliot Lowndes joined Talkin Vols! The Cobden graduate talked with Mike Murphy about Wednesday night's big game vs Olney Central and more!
