Turgeon left Kennedy far more than Kennedy left Buzz.

Agreed. Kennedy was able to pull a few rabbits out of his hat adding talent. The year he got House, Jones to transfer in and stacked it with a great freshman class of Hogg, Davis, Gilder, and Thomas (did work at Clemson) which led to a Sweet 16. Then that class matured along with surprise development Williams led to another 2 years later.

Let me once and for all bury any narrative pat will try to use in claiming that Kennedy > Buzz

2018-2019: When leading at the half, A&M was 9-5. Included in that loss total were blowing leads of 10 points vs. UC Irvine and 16 points vs. Florida. When trailing at the half, A&M was 5-13. (Alabama x2, Kansas State, at Missouri and Vanderbilt were the only victories)

So far this season, A&M is 1-0 when leading at the half and 2-1 when trailing at the half. I expect to win one of the games in Orlando and at least three of the final four games in 2019. That would put us, at worst, at 7-3 and, at best, 9-2 going into conference play. I don't think there's any way we beat Maryland.

The encouraging sign is that, by constantly winning when trailing at the half, it sends the message that they're never out of the game. We had Gonzaga on the ropes before they got pissed off and decided to take us seriously.

Starks has entered the transfer portal.

We may only have six scholarship players available for Harvard.

Disappointing. Having to rely on French because Starks was selfish and Gordon is hurt sucks.

Really let it get away end of first half. At least we’re putting up a fight in the second

Kennedy was 2-4 at this point last season with a far more talented roster.

This isn't even year 0, it's year -1. I wouldn't be surprised if we go 0-fer in SEC play, the roster is a high school varsity team at this point.

I would. We're not Melvin or even Kennedy bad. I see 5-7 wins in conference.

Kennedy was 5-1 at this point in his first season and ranked in the top 25.

The following Billy Kennedy results will NEVER happen on Buzz Williams' watch.

Rice 65, at Texas A&M 57
Southern 53, at Texas A&M 51
North Texas 61, at Texas A&M 41
UC Irvine 74, at Texas A&M 73
Texas Southern 88, at Texas A&M 73

Kennedy managed to go 18-16 with Admon Gilder, DJ Hogg, Tyler Davis, Robert Williams and Tonny Trocha-Morelos on it...THE YEAR AFTER making the Sweet 16 the previous year.
