FRISCO, Texas — Wow, does that dateline feel nice to type out! Morning, Blue Raiders! Hope you are doing well back in Murfreesboro, in Frisco or where you may be tuning in this fine Thursday morning.
It’s been a busy few days of travel and preparation for both our men’s and women’s basketball programs down here in the Lone Star State, with the buses with support staff leaving Tennessee as early as Sunday to help make sure the teams had everything they needed for the week.
Rick Insell‘s Lady Raiders got into town on Monday, unwinding after the travel with the night at Top Golf while practicing both days, while Nick McDevitt‘s Blue Raiders flew in on Tuesday, getting up some shots at a local area high school shortly after.

I spent my time, meanwhile, watching a lot of C-USA basketball to get ready for Middle Tennessee’s quarterfinal games today. The Lady Raiders start the day off with a game against Southern Miss at 2 p.m., while the Blue Raiders follow up with one of the latest games of the day, tipping off against UTEP at 8 p.m.
