Dr. John Thornton discusses A&M's pre-conference performance and more

Key notes from Dr. John interview

• Every team has a different complexion as far as what makes them tick. You see most coaches during this time turn to the captivated audience without all of the distractions during the school year. You have to be careful and not do too much, keep it simple. It’s a time to do things that can help keep people fresh.
   
• Over Christmas is a different story. You’re traveling and playing and practicing.
