Let’s focus for a moment. The ladies are 21-4 with a few games left in the regular season. Not too shabby and they deserve some kudos. Coach Rigby and her staff have done a great job with a special bunch. The tournament should be a fun one to watch.
The men are certainly not having the season that we or the coaching staff would have wanted but I see a lot of promise for the future. I have full confidence in Coach Cross and his staff. The only senior is Chuck Norman but as with anything, the portal may come into play. We’ve certainly seen great promise from some of the guys Cross recruited and I’m excited to see his next signing class.

Definitely need some big men.

We're definitely watching history unfold with the women's team. Having a record right now of 21-4 and tied for 1st place in the SBC is awesome.
The men's team has totally deflated. Makes me wonder if the tough, close losses this season have gotten to them. Plus the lack of depth has been an issue since conference play started.
Lost to UAB by 1
Lost to Texas A&M by 4 Lost six more games by 6 points or less Lost two OT games.
I know it's sort of a "coulda woulda shoulda" perspective, but we're a few good possessions or a few made free-throws from having a winning record and being impressed with the season.
I hope we don't lose any players to the portal, but it wouldn't surprise me if one or two well-known players leave.

I will say I think the "energy" is overall a bit different (and better) between the Cross and Cunningham eras. I'm just saying the results have been similar so far.

The Troy Ladies put on a show for the fans on Senior Day vs an outclassed stAte. At one point in the 3rd, 4 Red Wolfettes clustered on defense in the paint, dumfounded and clueless where the next attack was coming from!!
Lady Trojans ruled the boards all game.
Exciting afternoon at The Arena!

Women are having an incredible season - look forward to I hope another SBC title and at least one win in the NCAA tourney
Men, meh - talk to you next year - we were in for a rough year when the season started - maybe we get to 500 hundred winning % next year
