There are very few MVC teams that own any BASKETBALL NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS -
Bradley, of course, has four NIT Championships.....but Evansville owns FIVE National Championships (DII) in 1959, 1960, 1964, 1965 (both with all-time Bulls great Jerry Sloan), and 1971 .....

interesting story on Evansville's 1965 National Championship team
with an interesting connection to Bradley
One of their great players was almost a Bradley player....
