Billy Kennedy sympathizers unite. Your messiah is in trouble.

Just give him a few more years. When he gets a roster full of his players, realizes that none of them are any good, and gets a second roster with all of his players_2.0, you'll all see!

He isn't a good coach. It's obvious to anybody that's willing to be honest about it.

Also, love your handle. Wish I'd thought of it.

Just waiting for projectpat, jorts, etc. to tell us how great it was to lose to a team without its top 2 leading scorers.

Yeah I turned it off after they hit their second four point play. It's embarrassing enough to be playing in "the Corpus Christi Challenge" but to lose to a team without their best players. No thanks.

The Kennedy supporters are out in full strength over on TA. They're getting beat down by the mob at the moment.

That's awesome. I really don't see how you can logically support him.

i just dont understand this team. you are playing against a 2-3 and have absolutely no desire to enter the ball into the high post to collapse it?

I honestly am not sure that Kennedy understands X's and O's.

Standard reaction from the chicken little crowd where teams must go undefeated or the coach should be fired. Yawn.

Another close loss to a good team due to poor shooting that immediately gets pushed on to "poor coaching." 12% from 3 and sub-70% FTs killed us.

Another close loss to a good team


Missouri State was missing the following players due to injury:

Marcus Marshall - 11.8 ppg (2nd), 3.0 rpg (7), 2.3 apg (2)

Keith Pickens - 7.7 ppg (4th), 5.7 rpg (2), 1.3 bpg (2)

Yet, they managed to completely make A&M go from leading by 8 to falling apart.

Once again, when something works, Kennedy goes away from it. When something doesn't work, he keeps doing it.

A&M will have a MINIMUM of 3 nonconference losses (SMU, Oklahoma) and will likely shite the bed at home against Houston. The Aggies will likely finish 12th or worse in conference despite Kennedy having "his players".

You are running out of excuses in a hurry.

Saw this on GBH.
Ugh.

So, yeah. Remember that big opportunity I mentioned earlier today. Well, Aggie Basketball took a giant poop on that one. That was a bad loss. Don't listen to the crowd that will prop up Missouri State's undefeated record. They have an RPI of 195 and a SOS of 342. For reference, there are 351 teams in Division 1 college basketball season. Only 9 teams have an easier schedule than them. 9. Missouri State took on the Aggies without their two best players and still walk away with the win. Have I mentioned that was a bad loss?

Kennedy has Franned this team.

The roster is much more athletic than last year. If Kennedy gets them to improve throughout the year, great. If not, his replacement will have a decent roster to build on.

We are not going to transform into a great 3 point shooting team this year. We have to get at least competent in attacking zone defenses and make our free throws. The rule changes are going to cause a big increase in free throw attempts if we attack the basket. We are leaving way too many points off the board due to poor free throw shooting.

Not a Kennedy fan but I can't ever understand the joy some Ags take in watching the Ags suck and jumping all over anyone that tries to find a silver lining.

agree.

Way too many seem to be rooting against us. I'm not a fan of BK and I won't shed a tear if we fire him at the end of the season. But I won't take joy in us losing. There are two alternatives: he turns it around and we win or he doesn't and we find someone else. Even if I don't think the first will happen, ffs, I don't wish for the second. It's our team and I'm going to stand behind them.
