TxHoops Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 Man I spoke too soon when I said A&M should be in a couple of weeks ago. I just didn't think there was any way they would lose out. Any one win might have gotten them in. I still stand by my statement that Texas shouldn't get in (unless they win tonight). Quote
OldTimer Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 Texas is already in - good ending to a questionable season in a tough conference - and of course the Texas name will get you in. If they play to their potential they could be the spoiler team of the year and make a deep run in the tourney. Quote
OldTimer Posted March 12, 2015 Report Posted March 12, 2015 And A&M deserves the NIT the way they ended the year - proves they have not made the turn yet - When they needed they win they could not pull it out. Quote

If they play to their potential they could be the spoiler team of the year and make a deep run in the tourney. I guess that's why I wouldn't put them in. I can't stand an underachiever. I understand you can't win em all but that team is WAY to talented with such size to have that kind of season. I watched them give arguably one of the best teams we've seen in years all they could handle without arguably their best player. And then they play the conference season like they did. I don't know - I would prefer to reward a team that played up to or beyond their potential first - putting aside my loyalties. But I think you are probably exactly right OT. Quote

Brighter days ahead. You have 4 incoming freshman playing in the state tournament in San Antonio this weekend as well as a potential 5th. This recruiting class is one for the ages for you guys.

Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted April 10, 2015 Author Report Posted April 10, 2015 @kbtxsports: Story on Rick Stansbury being elevated to @AggieMensHoops associate head coach. http://www.kbtx.com/sports/home/headlines/Stansbury-Promoted-to-Texas-AM-Associate-Head-Coach--299284381.html @JonRothstein: Texas A & M has promoted Rick Stansbury to Associate Head Coach, per release. Was key cog in Aggies' landing top flight recruiting class. Quote
TxHoops Posted May 5, 2015 Report Posted May 5, 2015 Forgot to post yesterday. This one really hurts. Starting with the 2016-2017 season, I will officially be a fan of Texas A&M basketball. PG JJ Caldwell made it official and committed yesterday. If you are a fan of pass first PGs who make their teammates better, you will love this kid. One of the best in that class. Gulp...Gig 'Em.

TxHoops Posted May 5, 2015 Report Posted May 5, 2015 We must be paying well. I don't get it I know a lot of the particulars with this kid. He made the right choice for him. Very bright kid who has an amazing life story. A&M gives him the opportunity he was looking for in a place close to home. I promise you the Aggies got one hell of a kid/ball player/human being with this one. He is the epitome of a leader, on and off the court. Quote

TxHoops Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 ​​He must be a Houston Hoops kid I bet Yes he is.  Joins JJ Caldwell as the second A&M commit in the class of 2016.  Both top 100.  Quote

BLUEDOVE3 Posted July 13, 2015 Report Posted July 13, 2015 See where JJ Caldwell just got offered by UNLV. Â I heard some rumors and now this? Hmmm? Â Hmmm, is A&M over recruiting? Got a lot of guard action going on over there. Mr. Buddy Garrity 1 Quote

I didn't see his name under UNLV AS BEING OFFERED. Quote

Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted December 6, 2015 Author Report Posted December 6, 2015 @SethDavisHoops: Arizona State just took down Texas A&M in Tempe by 13 points. Pretty disappointing showing by the Aggies. Quote
