One thing NCAA D2 absolutely gets right is the 1 week rest period with no practice/competition over Christmas. Allows time for athletes to be with family, coaches are able to reset and do the same.
As Evansville begins their search for a new Athletic Director. We’ve been to 7 NIT/NCAA’s since 1977…the year we turned D1; same year as the crash. Coach Byers (AD 1977-1998) was instrumental in every single one of those…will the next Coach Byers please stand up.

Every championship team I’ve been a part of has had an outstanding strength coach…Coach Sellers was just that for us in 1999!! No surprise to see him still building champions!
Excited to welcome Marlon Cunningham to our basketball program. Marlon is the 5th NM HS player to join this class & he has the opportunity to provide an immediate impact on our team.

I couldn't be more thankful for Coach Simmons and the impact he had on me and others at UE. Built a winner on a budget, ran a clean program; was one bad bounce from NCAA a few years ago.
JB had such a bright future and I’ll never forget the morning we received the news of the tragedy. He was days away from reporting to campus. Honored to be a part of the group representing his legacy.
In 2020,

commit JB White was killed due to gun violence. 🙏🕊️
The Enchantment decided to pay tribute to JB’s legacy and surprised his mother with an honorary patch on their jerseys for TBT 2023.

We really appreciate
@waltermccarty
and
@UEAthletics
giving us this exhibition game. It will be fun to be home and get the season started in Evansville!
Looking forward to having our team back on campus this weekend. Crazy that’s it been 25 years! Was a team full of great guys and a coaching staff that always put us in a position to be successful. Our fans never failed us and pulled us thru when we needed it the most!

Congratulations to Mines, but can't say enough about the job
@ClaytonMJones
did this year in our department... took us from 0 to 100 or in this case 16th to 3rd. Amazing job! So fortunate to have someone like him promoting our brand.
Switchable defenders with motors. Offensive skill set that fits. We got better today x 2. Great kids and great families. Welcome to the Purple Aces

… Aces went 25-6 that year, won the MCC, beat Oregon State in the Dance. Hafner drafted in 2nd round. My favorite shirt is now her favorite!!

I know there all kinds of good reasons why, but as a fan of Mountain West basketball I really miss the Mountain Channel that covered nearly every game. The HDMI adapter is getting worn out from all these online streams.
How long is too long to correct someone on your name... doing business with them, need their business...I’ve been “Fred” for about a month now... gonna roll w/it
These hatred acts have gone on far too long in our country. Each of us has to do our part to help rid the world of hatred, bigotry, and racism.

I want to thank
@ccucougars
and their staff especially their athletic training staff for the quick response to our injured athlete. It was a very scary moment for all of us...thank you for your prayers and for your response.
@RMAC_SPORTS
...he is recovering now.
Very appreciative that
@waltermccarty
is bringing our team out for his first game as head coach. It will be great to be back in town and see family and friends.
It was so great to see our Cowboys win on Homecoming. So many great alumni joined us...none more special than Betsy Huff Class of 1954.

MBB | FINAL - The Cowboys outscore Colorado Mesa 50-38 in the second half to pull away for a 94-82 victory! NMHU moves to 11-3 overall and 6-2 in RMAC play.

Survived a tough game tonight against a tough
@nnmcbasketball
team...congrats to their coaches and fans on a great small college environment. Our guys really responded in 2nd half. All the best to Eagles and Coach Cordova until we see them again.
Spent the last couple of days in Evansville and had the chance to stop by the alma mater. Love what the staff is doing in getting the Aces back to form! Great people, great coaches.
Congratulations to
@tbuss3
and the entire Buss family... hometown girl is the new all time scoring leader for Indiana women's basketball. Can remember her dribbling thru defenses when she was just a kid.
Skill is the prerequisite...applies to virtually every professional setting...then your attitude and work ethic set you apart... poor organizations do that in opposite order.
Gonna miss the daily grind with
@CoachWilson5
… thankful for the work you put in over the last year…can’t wait to see what lies ahead for you and your family!
Totally different attention span now that he’s playing sports. Every goal starts with a vision. We were using the popcorn bowls as hats by the 3rd quarter but it was a good start…
Another chance to prove ourselves tonight at home. Love that about back to back schedule in

... no time to feel good or bad about Friday night...
