A New Era for ULM Basketball
The University of Louisiana at Monroe is gearing up for its first season under new head coach Ryan Cross, a move that marks a significant shift for the program.
Cross arrives with a roster overhaul, bringing in fourteen newcomers while only senior guard Cam Campbell returns from the previous year's squad.
Having previously served as an assistant at ULM and later as associate head coach at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, Cross returns with a blend of familiar insight and fresh perspective.
During the summer he is focusing on building chemistry among the new players, installing new schemes, and establishing a culture that can compete in a demanding conference.
Fans, alumni, and university officials are watching closely, hopeful that the combination of experienced leadership and fresh talent will translate into a winning season and renewed campus spirit.
The transition also underscores the university's commitment to investing in its athletic programs, signaling a broader ambition to elevate ULM's profile both on and off the court.
