Aggie basketball fans are an odd bunch. Very willing to watch **** ball as long as they like the coach. Thats as bad a loss as you can have to start a new era.

No it's not. We have absolutely zero roster continuity, we have a coach who's new to coaching at the high-major level with an all-new staff of assistants except for one, it's a new style of basketball for everyone on the team except one guy, etc.

Take, for example, Buzz's first season. He's coached at the high-major level with several different schools, he brought over his entire coaching staff, we had a number of players on the team who had played together before, etc. and that team was still absolutely terrible and lost to Fairfield, Harvard and Temple in the first month of the season. They also had a game against a high level opponent, granted that 2019-20 Gonzaga was a lot better than 2025-26 Oklahoma State but we got blasted by 30 in our home arena.

Anyone who knows any amount of ball has been saying that this team is probably going to get killed a few times, especially early in the season, including even the coach himself.

My only concern is the same as for the last few coaches: when we shift to emphasizing defense can we produce enough offense to win
We all know both sides of the ball we got beat yesterday.

Went to the game on the way home from Mizzou. Stayed until the end. Will be there Friday night. Pretty sad we have this many bandwagon fans. I support them no matter the record.

Didn't see the game

Just watched Bucky's post game press conference. Man, I like this guy.

25 pt blowout loss when we were a bucket favorites and this is your takeaway?

have some respect for yourself.

No kidding, you didnt see the game.


I take it we shot awful and played bad defense.

Not sure why that's some kind of disrespect to myself? It's not like I was on the court.

It's early in the season with a complete new team, coach, and staff, playing their first real road game. I expect we'll get blown out sometimes. As long as we improve during the season sufficiently, I'll be satisfied.

I mean if youre posting on texags basketball forum at the beginning of the season then it's unlikely you're fairweather.

Sure there's some basic trolling but we have never gone deeper than the sweet 16 and last time was 2018... if we have a bandwagon then there's surely a lot of empty seats

Bad loss to a mediocre team but you learn a lot from losses.

You get a bit more trust when your first year start is rough after taking 2 schools to the s16

Banking on needing time in the system is false hope in portal era. That was ugly.

No disrespect, and you are right.
