Guest: Kristy Curry, Alabama Women’s Basketball Head Coach

Alabama head coach Kristy Curry joins the Basketball Podcast to share insights on longevity in coaching and being too blessed to be stressed.


Since Kristy Curry became the head coach of the University of Alabama’s women’s basketball team in 2013, each season has produced significant wins and new milestones. 


Curry has been coaching for over 23 years and has an overall head coaching record of 462-281 (.622).

Curry came to Alabama to find a new challenge after leading Texas Tech and Purdue for seven seasons each. 


She led the Boilermakers to seven NCAA tournaments, including a national championship game appearance, while winning five straight Big Ten titles. She coached the Red Raiders to an upset of No. 1 Baylor and back to the NCAA Tournament in 2011.
