Win or lose, the team played with grit and toughness. Alabama is just a different breed. Lots of room for growth, but also lots of growth seen during the game itself.
This team is special, & lord I’m excited for the season to come!

I’m going to get a little personal here folks..
In may, I am re-enrolling at MTSU to finish what I started. Nearly two years ago, I bit off more than I could chew & had to drop out.
Going back has been the hardest thing to decide. However I am excited for the challenges ahead!

We haven’t had this type of buzz involving

I think there honestly COULD BE more hype surrounding this season opener than the 2018 CUSA Championship game.

My initial thoughts about Derek Mason being named head coach…
- It will take time to get his recruits & system laid down; Rome wasn’t built in a day
- he has the energy & passion that Middle Tennessee needs; lets get a championship or five
- his defensive schemes will do well

It may seem minuscule to the blind eye, but these changes are amazing in the grand scheme of things.

Derek Mason said he’s met with athletes. He says they’re hungry and wanna eat. He says he’s excited to get started. The ENERGY this man is bringing to this press conference is something we definitely needed.

Ive said it before, & I’ll say it again…
I absolutely hate that zero Band of Blue members were able to go to the Hawaii Bowl.
Skimping them out of a bowl two years in a row when they’re your most loyal supporters is asinine.
Other schools find it in their budgets.

Even with low funding, Coach Mason & co.. are building rooms to support their players.

Courtney is one of the greatest to ever put on a Lady Raider uniform.
Her point totals may not show it weekly, but she’s a leader. She gets rebounds, makes key passes, takes shots when she needs to, & is an all-around solid person.
Congratulations to

, who becomes just the second member of the 1,000 career rebounds club! 👏
