Finally something to cheer for til football starts again.

For as long as I can remember... Once bowl games were done there was very little to expect from College Station until the following August when football started again. But that has all changed. That right folks.. The Texas A&M Aggies have put together a tremendous basketball team. A well liked, hard nosed coach named Billy Gillespie took a team that a few short years ago was 0-16 in conference play and has them ranked #6 in the country with a 21-3 record and leading the Big XII after impressive wins over the 5th ranked Kansas Jayhawks and the 25th ranked Longhorns from TU. No longer do we cheer for a basketball team but have little expectation to win we now have high expectaions from the team that is one of the top defensive teams in the country. I boasted this august that the Aggies would win the Big XII. But I am not ashamed to admit I didn't think it would be in basketball. Hmm... i wonder if maybe Coach Gillespie could talk to Dennis Franchione about how to play defense....Just a thought.

GIG 'EM AGGS!!!
Until next time,
Neal
