Heard Szabo is a very good doubles player and has had ATP points

the reason why these players do not go pro is cos they are not quite ready, but probably will be after college... hello John Isner etc...

Those guys are the exception rather than rule..If you're a badass you skip college....

I doubt that many people care. The women's program has circled the bowl and disappeared.

Can't wait for the Men's home season opener January 22 against Louisiana-Lafayette. Probably won't see many of the Ags top six playing, but LL has some really nice kids from the Clear Lake area, Brandon Farine and Robert Voss, playing. My son played both in the USTA Juniors, and they both come from wonderful families. Go Ags!

blue star for you..I have been saying this for the last three years, its met with ridcule and rantings about how Coach K is such a great guy.

I think the women would have to miss the NCAA tournament for Kleinecke to get the axe. Potgieter Jr. will be an upgrade over her sister, who like most Kleinecke players was best when she first got to CS and got a bit worse every year.

Especially if Cuthbertson can stay healthy, this team should be able to finish the usual 3rd in conference and win a round in the NCAAs. Kleinecke saves his job one more year.

Harry nailed it.

Women's tennis at A&M is a sport where mediocrity and a clean program are good enough.

Sad but true.

The days of a routine third place in the big 12 are over for women's tennis. OSU, OU, Tech, and Mizzou will all have their best teams in recent years this season.

Tech with their best team in years will still under achieve, as always. You can't coach effort and desire, and tech has been lacking in those two categories for years

The tech womens coach is basically Kleinecke jr...was a high school coach that lucked into the job, does a pretty good job of recruiting above average American girls but doesn't do much with them.

I agree that OU and OK St. and Nebraska are getting a lot better. I think we are still a better team than those three but that will not last long and I would not be surprised to lose to one or two of them this year. Missouri will be terrible again. Not sure how they got into this conversation.

Luckily for us (and for Kleinecke), the rest of the conference is pretty awful. We will finish 5th just by showing up. If we finish worse than 3rd, it will be because NU, OU and OSU are much improved and not because we are bad. Like I said before, we should be improved with the Potgieter upgrade and hopefully getting Janelle back. The problem, as usual, will be our soft spots at the bottom of the lineup. If we had a decent 5 & 6 we would be a top-25 and maybe a sweet 16 team. As it stands, the best we can hope for is a finish around 25. Hard to do better than that when you have incredible pressure to win at 1-3 and not much help down low, especially against teams like t.u., Baylor, and SMU who are as good or better up top and crush us down low.

I think Kleinecke's window of opportunity to do something special has passed. Going fast are the days when we could recruit t.u.'s scraps and finish 3rd just because there weren't 4 good teams in conference. OU and OSU are pulling even and about to pass us with the young go-getters they have hired. In state and out of conference SMU and TCU are now stronger programs and Rice pulling even. I'll be curious to see how many rabbits Kleinecke can keep pulling out of his hat.

I love college tennis and will continue to support both teams as much as I can, but I am much more interested in the men this year, and I think they have a shot to make some noise.

The women's program has become a Title IX token.

It's been all downhill since our senior #1 choked her guts and lost to a tu fish in a tiebreaker that cost the team a share of the B12 Championship several years ago (around 2007?).

I agree that the men's team is going to be very good, maybe even Final Four good. Those newcomers are going to add some serious depth this year. Worried about next year however when we lose the big three at the top of the lineup.

Regarding the always underachieving women's program, Kleinecke is the worst coach on campus not named Corbelli. For some reason Byrne has been slow to act with both of these coaches, who are clearly just coasting and trying to hold onto their salaries for as long as they can.

Szabo and Winthrow are both redshirting this semester.
