No chance in hell of that happening. Hell they were 9-9 last year with 4 pro players. This team will finish no better than 6-12

Sadly have to agree- probably 6-12 is right.

Tonight should have been a great matchup for us and we still lost at home. Good luck against bigger, more physical teams that will dominate us inside.

This team has a hell of a lot of improving to do even with the addition of Gilder and Mitchell to get there.

I see a couple bright spots and way too many supplemental pieces.

I'll take that bet. $100 says we finish better than 6-12

Hop doesn't think Kennedy is a good coach. He just likes to argue sometimes accurately when he gets blame when he shouldn't.

Hes repeatedly said he thinks BK should have never got an extension

This team will finish around 17-14 and 8-10 in conference play. And we will believe it was positive.

I can't imagine a more frothing at the mouth but maybe I don't mean it thread than this one. No wonder the sunshine pumpers don't take anyone seriously around here

That's not being contrarian.

I said this team COULD go 9-9 in SEC play if Starks played with maturity and control this season...which obviously he has not.

I never stated with confidence what I expected the team would do. Posters asked me what this team is capable of doing, and I provided my opinion explicitly saying that I did not have a high level of confidence given the many new players and the unknowns on the roster. I still feel the this team is CAPABLE of going 9-9, but that now means these two injured players need to return and make the type of impact that matches their talent on paper. Now, it;s not looking good after Kennedy's ominous statements about Gilder's status in the post-game presser...so my hope is definitely waning on this team reaching that capability, but a month and a half is a long time and we'll see what happens.

So you significantly misrepresented my comments. Here's what I posted in my Q&A thread on premium after Wednesday's game...

"We were told TJ Starks had become a smarter and more efficient player going into his sophomore year. That wasn't the case tonight. Maybe he was too amped up for the season opener, or maybe he is what he is. I'll say this, if he is what he was tonight, A&M will struggle most of the season."

I don't have e-feuds with bobinator. We are friends. We hang out and tailgate before every game. Other than his frequent tweeting of insignificant events in his life where he's essentially talking to himself and filling up my Twitter feed, I'm fine with bobinator. :-)

This guy doesn't bother to actually absorb what I post. If I'm not calling Kennedy an incompetent toad, then it must mean I fully support the coaching capabilities of the man.

Previously, i compared Joe Jones' ongoing knee problems with Gilder's ongoing injury in terms of limiting their true game potential. However, it is unclear to me if Gilder is carrying over the same injury from last year or if it's a new one. Either way, is worrisome that the staff has not been able to bring him back 100%.

To me if Admon is hurt this early in the season you consider redshirting him. It doesn't do him or the team any good to play through an injury at 50% all year.

You would think people would stop believing how much better they are told that our players are getting before every season when it almost never is true.

I do love overreactions with a small sample size.

All while missing 2 starters. FFS.

lol No. This is a 0.500 squad overall.

We allowed UCI to shoot 52.7% FG and 42.9% 3FG

Admon's career is certainly not worth BK's. Redshirt him.

I'm not positive, but I don't think Hop is the athletic director or one of the handful of donors intent on continually enhancing Kennedy's contract.

We are lucky to have Hop even if y'all disagree with him.

Hop is passionate about the program just sit nearby him during the games and you will realize.
I usually agree with most of his takes but when I disagree or others do he tends to think his opinion is the only one that has merit when there are many points that come from different directions that are good

New issue just from last year or new issue with respect to what he's been dealing with this season so far?
