Say what you want about Texas A&M

Postby Rebel10 » Thu Oct 16, 2014 11:05 am

They are building a monster class. Top 3 or 4 class if the get Thomas probably top 5 now with Gilder since they were top 6 before Gilder. This is the class I thought SMU would have. They will be tough in 2 years maybe even next year.

I [deleted] hate the [deleted] [deleted] stick fart sandwich aggies.... Sigh......

Now that I got that out, I gotta think this does wonders for them to get Eli.

Still shocked Admon didn't go OSU

talent will take them a long way but they will only go as far as the coach is able to maximize their talent. That is where they will fall short (I hope) :)

They can have all the talent in the world, but they aren't going to do [deleted] with that coach

They are going to have to run some people off because they only have 2 SRs on the roster. Gilder is their 4th commitment. Thomas would be #5.

Is SEC hoops a big draw? Why A&M and not SMU, UT, KU, etc?

If they get Thomas they will have a team that could very well make more than one run at the national championship over the next few years.

I don't see it with Kennedy at the helm. Guy is just a terrible coach.

Completely and totally leaving Texas in the dust as the premier athletic university in the state for the foreseeable future. The move to the SEC has done wonders for them
