I hate threads like this. There's no point.

Even if he wins a championship there will be "fans" waiting to say I told you so the following year if he doesn't win it all again.

Just as there will be fans wanting to say he's arrived without really having sustained high level success.

He's a good coach that appears to be a great person that looks to develop a hard working team over recruiting superstars. I don't know if that will ever allow for sustained high level success, but I also don't think it allows for complete failure like I saw while in school.

He's had a solid couple of above average years, but he also hasn't "arrived" in the sense of success we would expect other coaches to achieve before deeming them elite.

That said, the older I get the less I'm in the win it all or bust category and look at sports as entertainment. And this looks to be a great year in that regard.

4 seasons of at least a bubble team is not the bar. LOL

He better make a deep tourney run.


Or what? We just let a guy coach here for eight years that made the tournament twice and wasn't even close his other seasons.

Whaddaya mean, "Or what!?"

We can always just go hire a coach from the Southland, MAC or OVC at any time! WE hold the cards my friend.

I mean the whole thread is kind of ridiculous. If we want to pick a specific date, the Buzz A&M basketball program probably "arrived" when we beat Tennessee in February of '22. Any time the student section is coordinating _______-outs (in that case black) and people are lining up hours before games you've arrived.

What Buzz has done that BK didn't do was establish a solid floor. We're onto four seasons in a row now of being at least a bubble team. That's no small feat here.

But what BK did that only BCG had ever done was put together a truly special season, and we'll see if this year is one of those.

Once you make the tournament nobody cares if you were a bubble team.

He better make a deep tourney run or what? LOL

Ok....I gotta know...which posters on this site do NOT look at Aggie sports as merely a form of entertainment?

A form of entertainment that usually bites us in the ass.

Except for baseball last year.

Just enjoy life and don't take college sports so seriously.

This post is completely detached from reality.

I say it on every thread like this, Buzz results far exceed the athletic department and donor commitment.
