Oklahoma - 2
Liberty - 3

Arguably the top 2 seed.[/quote]
No doubt. I would want no part of Oklahoma right now. They won their conference tournament and boosted their RPI to 19 in doing so. They had to think they had a host spot waiting for...

But we were "pressure oriented," lots of activity on the bases. Very aggressive. We were under Deggs, and we are now.
No we were not this patient and selective at the plate. I started going to games in 1991, and we've *never* had patience like this... and I *love* it.

A couple of notes of interest with the College Station regional. We hired our first year head coach Jim Schlossnagle (sp?) from TCU, so there's a revenge story there.
Also, Louisiana's head coach Matt Deggs, was our batting coach from 2006 to about 2010 or so. His style of offense at A&M was ve...

I can represent the Aggies and what to expect of us on this thread.
We won only nine conference games last year and didn't renew our coach's contract. This year we have 21 new players. including 15 transfers. We were not good the first month or so of the season, and it looked like this would be...

It seemed like every time we were beaten deep, none of our defenders made any effort to stop a TD after the catch.
I looked at my father-in-law at some point in the first half and said "Football may be a brutal sport, but there's no reason you should have to break a sweat."

I've got to agree that it's hiring Jackie. When I was a little kid (now 42), the Aggies were bad year after year. The program was a joke. If we hadn't hired Jackie all of those years ago, we don't have the run we had from 1985-94.
I wonder what the level of fan interest would be in 2014... (...

I don't know. I am from Beaumont, and I also like the Trill.. at least these two.

I think it's a great idea. There's no reason that the Spanish speaking population of Texas shouldn't be buying A&M gear with their money.

Spanish language radio?

I was looking through our press release for the Lamar game and noticed that we have Spanish language radio. Is this new? I've never noticed it before if it isn't.

I am astounded as to how much people will pay to watch us play a 1-AA (yes, I know it's now officially FCS) school that hasn't had a winning season since 1979. Oh, and I had Lamar season football tickets back then.
Seriously, I know we don't need...

My basketball years were 1990-91 (Kermit Davis one season) through 1994-95. We made the NIT in 1993-94, but I'm not sure I could name a player on that team.

Thank you to everyone for your kind words. That response actually began because I couldn't come up with another explanation to TbirdSpur2010 as to why I'd been absent all spring (including baseball season... my favorite season).
