HUNTSVILLE, Ala. — It was a breezy, but out of this world day at the U.S. Space and Rocket Center, where the first in-person CUSA Tipoff since before the COVID-19 pandemic was held ahead of the start of the college basketball season in just a few weeks times. And both the Middle Tennessee men's and women's basketball programs were well represented just two hours from the Murphy Center.
And with both teams welcoming a host of newcomers to their ranks this year, much of the media availability's focus for each program was on how each team brought their new recruits in to their culture.
