The designation of class is somewhat misleading. At least one other person in the UE program is an academic junior with more eligibility than that. Part of that is due to summer school and part of it is due to transferring through an academy or having taken some college credit courses in an honors program at high school. There are other considerations as well. Yes, I am aware of what/who you are talking about but was just going on the official roster.

My latest article features my take on the top ten seniors/fourth-year players in the league. But there are actually 21 guys featured total including five honorable mentions and six Belmont/Murray/UIC guys who would be in the top ten if they were in the MVC. Enjoy! Or don't! Two Aces in the top six on this list. www.missourivalleybeat.com/post/mvc-s-top-ten-seniors-fourth-year-players

Some use eligibility remaining as their guide for listing classes while others list players by the amount of experience they have. I have used verbalcommits.com as my guide, and am grouping guys by eligibility remaining.

The second-best anything would be pretty hard to determine because on a team with 1 win, clearly there isn't even a No. 1 best at anything. On any given night, a player hits 8 out 14 and is the best guy on the floor. With Givance and Newton, if anybody asked me -- Newton could be the best player they've had since Balentine. That's when he's playing well. Givance is the most active, has the ball the most and is the one guy you notice. Is he the best player on the floor? Compared to what? If I had to pick between the two for the top spot, I'd take Newton.

This comment, while predictable, is still somewhat telling about the top half of the Valley. My interest as an Aces fan is that the muddled coaching structure since Simmons left isn't going to be settled within at least a couple of years after Lickliter is gone.

Today I posted the last of my three-part series covering each of the incoming schools from their fans' perspective. Belmont is featured, as two Bruins fans tell all. My next project will be updated power rankings, which I haven't done in over two weeks. You can also follow me on Twitter @beatmvc if you're so inclined. www.missourivalleybeat.com/post/belmont-from-a-fan-s-perspective
