Missouri State, Conference USA Expansion (with Wyatt Wheeler)

When we created this podcast, we saw the statistic that you have to map out your first 10 episodes in order to be successful. While most were staged with timed intention, this one shaped itself up due to current events of Delaware's future conference home. In Episode 10, hosts Daniel Steenkamer (@DanSteenkamer) and Bryce Leslie (@SSN_BlueHens, @bleslie19) sit down with Wyatt Wheeler (@WyattWheeler_NL), sports journalist at the Springfield News-Leader, to discuss Missouri State's acceptance into Conference USA, joining the Hens in July 2025. We break down the move that has been pointed at for some time and cover all that the Bears' athletic department has to offer as the 12th member of C-USA.
