We will find out on Wednesday. Although it's not a good comparison given the strength of the conference this year

All the Buzz haters coming around really should be complimenting the team and Buzz in the hopes that another school hires him if they want him gone

If you are going to criticize Buzz, at least make it based on reality instead of making crap up.

There is plenty to criticize. For example , even his most ardent supporters don't love his offensive scheme.

Casuals- "This team isn't really a top 10 team"
Also the Casuals- "what? We lost to one of the best teams in the country? Buzz going to Buzz"

It wasn't a good week of basketball, but let's not act like it's all doom and gloom for losing to Tennnessee and on the road to anyone in this conference.

This week has gone pretty close to how I thought it would: I figured we'd lose to Miss DT then come home and play a tough one vs Tennessee and either go 1-1 or 0-2

I expect us to beat vandy and lose to Florida , then probably lose to Auburn and finish the season with a win at lsu

I think that gets us a 4 seed

Beat auburn or Florida and we'll be a 3 seed

Had we beaten Tennessee I think we'd have locked up at least a 3 seed provided we beat vandy and lsu

That's my feeling anyway

Tuesday against Miss. State was the problem; not Saturday against Tennessee. We played terrible in 2d half Tuesday and were embarrassed. Saturday was a different story. Miss St and tu were the two worst played 2d halves this year. The problem is they we needed to take Miss St and we're not up to it.

By all means Buzz is a great guy. I think he is a good coach. I don't think A&M can ever hire a great coach or keep one. The administration and BMA just don't have that much interest and most students don't care.

I don't think Buzz is an elite coach and sure, there are plenty of things to get frustrated with but he is a good fit and we can't do better and if we did he would jump ship.

What offensive scheme would you recommend? Serious question.

24 team won 5 of the final 6 going into selection Sunday
23 team won 10 of the final 12
22 team won 8 of the final 10

Not sure if you are interested in facts but you might want to take this information in and just think to yourself that it is definitely possible you don't know what you are talking about.

No quality defines elite like recruiting elite talent. So elite coach means recruiting elite athletes, well Buzz has not yet. That may be why he would leave A&M for another...



But I am hopping Buzz can recruit elite athletes @ A&M. If Auburn, bama and Florida can, there is no reason why A&M can't...soon. We had NBA talents in the past but not enough or just not right timing. just a bad l,uck

Some people act like if we are not undefeated then we have a Buzz problem.

To defend the OP a little bit here, I don't think he means to end the season. We have had sections of every season where we just look terrible. Now, I don't think what we've seen the last two games is evidence that we're in one, for sure, but just saying I'm pretty sure he didn't mean we fade at the end of every season.

People look for trends when there are none.

How the schedule shapes up has a much greater impact on our "streaks" then any shift in our actual play.

I hope we win a national championship so we can get rid of this guy.

Pig tu paperclip and LSU are in the bottom half of the league and we have played all but one of those games
Schedule got a lot harder and the Ags are likely going to play under .500 for this very challenging stretch of games

Fade?! How often do you pay attention to basketball?

According to your profile, not much… at all.

Thanks for the dose of Monday morning irony.

Serious question what would your pitch be to a 5* or 4* recruit to come to Texas A&M?

Just curious what your secret sauce is…

Sure we have had a losing streak every year it just feels weird to call it an annual fade when we have been one of the hottest teams in the country on selection Sunday 3 years in a row.

Yeah I agree it wasn't worded well. I just think that's what he meant, not that we end every season poorly.
