MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — Rick Insell had that glimmer in his eye the moment he walked into the auxiliary gym Thursday night.

The veteran head coach has a glimmer in his eye after almost every game in the Murphy Center. Perhaps it's because he's almost always accompanied to his media availability by his grandkids, or the fact that his Middle Tennessee women's basketball team tends to wallop their opponent more times than not at home. On Thursday night, after a 94-81 win over rival WKU, one would expect Insell to be in a good mood.
