BB RECRUITING Macie Phifer Commits

Login to view embedded media
Lady Raiders get a commitment out of '25 5'11" Wing Macie Phifer!

Phifer was just awarded Gatorade's Mississippi Player of the Year award after leading Ingomar to the third state title in four years. SHe averaged over 20 points, 6 rebounds in her junior season.

That totals 2 signees in the '25 signing class with the addition of Carsyn Swaney from Heritage HS (TN). Great class so far, I wouldn't be surprised if we hear from one more this summer!

I really wish we could use this as an opportunity for Media & Entertainment students (still Mass Comm to me) and that fancy digital truck to broadcast the game on ESPN+. Create a laid back show with reports from the sidelines and guest coaches, coaches in the booth, stands, family zone, a feature on the SAPC construction, etc. Build a bit more hype.

Some of my favorite school memories are being on the truck for games that were broadcast on MT10 a few days later.

It's so refreshing to see us act like a real program again. The draft with former players coaching the teams is awesome to see. I'm sure Stock did some sort of community outreach but none of us saw it and for whatever reason, he didn't think we needed to and that was one of the rubs we had with him. Mason has already done more public outreach than Stock has ever done to my knowledge.
100%. When it all went down several former players said Stock did outreach, but no one knew and that was "his personality" of not broadcasting it. That is fine. Some people are that way. But that isn't what a G5 school in SEC territory needs to grow.

I'll say it again, no idea if the D Mase experiment will work on field, but off so far, the man (and the MT social media team) have done EVERYTHING right.
