LADY RAIDER BB Middle Tennessee (9-3) vs Northern Kentucky (2-6) Wed. 12-20 6:30pm Murphy Center, ESPN+

Chance for a good tune up before the holiday & a tough opponent on the road at GCU 12-30.
To get an idea about NKU they will be playing a common opponent tonight when they take on Tennessee Tech in Cookeville before coming to Murfreesboro Wednesday. Tonight's game will be on ESPN+ for those interested.

FB RECRUITING Clarification on signee Ashton Jones

There has been chatter about him being a PWO. He cleared the air

“Not necessarily. Starting after spring I’m on full scholarship. They have me listed as a “pwo” for the early enrollment process so I can get in January 16th and work early. They couldn’t offer me 4 1/2 years obviously so me and another player are splitting an offer 60/40 up until spring ball hits. We both are on full ride though once spring is over and the scholarships renew.”

BASEBALL Schedule released

2024 Schedule released. Honestly, a pretty terrible schedule. Definitely not trying to get fans by playing interesting non-conference games. Got one game at Vandy, at Bama and at Indiana. No Memphis or Tennessee. No interesting weekend series, no money series of note. For the athletic department folks that read: do better.

Anyone hear how we are looking in the fall? I saw nothing about the scrimmages - maybe missed it if we did post something. Going on 8 years since we won 30+ in a season & 15 since we made the NCAA. I really miss Coach Pete.

FOOTBALL Couple players/recruits on Mason

"Coach Mason has phenomenal energy, is a man of his word, and has big plans for MTSU. During my recruiting trip I saw how he was able to bring everyone together and connect with people"

-Luther Richesson

"Love his energy. Got this entire signing class locked in immediately no question. Made it the easiest decision. I always love his emphasis on special teams. This will be a place I go and continue to develop."

Based on just what you know so far. Mason only. Coaches unknown. Will be interesting to see if this changes any after we see staff and first recruiting class.
