The first quarter of Valparaiso's season is in the books and the Beacons are 3-5 overall and 0-1 in the Missouri Valley Conference. There are still more questions than answers about a team that is one game away from getting Kobe King on the active roster. 

Union Street Hoops host Paul Oren takes an overview of the first eight games of Valparaiso's season before being joined by Missouri State beat report Wyatt Wheeler. Paul and Wyatt discuss the first round of Valley games, including Missouri State's shocking overtime loss to Illinois State that has Twitter on fire in Springfield. 

Union Street Hoops is a podcast dedicated to Valparaiso basketball and the Missouri Valley Conference. The pod can be heard on ApplePods, Spotify and NWI.com.
