• 1:54
  Speaker 1: getting us through the doldrums of summer where there's not
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: as much sports to talk about, so we got to
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: just you know, get hyped for what's happened in the
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: fall and not right.
• 2:03
  Speaker 7: I agree, it's it's a very rough two month period
• 2:05
  Speaker 7: where there's no Aggie sports.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but we make do with what we got. So
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: we're going to talk today about read rowdies. I know
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: that it's it's an organization that's you know, kind of
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: not fallen by the wayside, but it's not quite as
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: prominent as i'd say, you know, maybe it used to be.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Like people know that Aggies love to get out and
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: support their teams, but I don't think they fully realize
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: how organized it is. So this is, you know, kind
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: of a public service announcement, if you will.
• 2:34
  Speaker 7: Yeah, So this is something that we at Texas A
• 2:37
  Speaker 7: and M call a call to arms for student orgs.
• 2:41
  Speaker 7: And I'm excited to talk about read rowdies. You know,
• 2:44
  Speaker 7: I'm very proud to be a rowdy. I've been a
• 2:46
  Speaker 7: rowdy for three years now. My first year was technically
• 2:50
  Speaker 7: a little bit unofficial, but I officially became a member
• 2:54
  Speaker 7: in the twenty twenty five the twenty twenty sixth season.
• 2:59
  Speaker 7: I've had some great memories. I've got to meet a
• 3:02
  Speaker 7: lot of great people. I'm excited to talk about read
• 3:05
  Speaker 7: more today.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. So you know, for like I said,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of people that don't know what it is.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: So just give us like a little brief rundown of
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: what read Rowdies this.
• 3:15
  Speaker 7: Yeah, So, read Rowdies is a student orgon campus. We
• 3:17
  Speaker 7: attend all the women's volleyball games as well as the
• 3:20
  Speaker 7: men's basketball games. We try to create a environment and
• 3:25
  Speaker 7: read and where it's very challenging for other opponents to
• 3:30
  Speaker 7: come in and think that they're going to have an
• 3:33
  Speaker 7: easy way through. We try and get in their head
• 3:36
  Speaker 7: trip a little bit, be as loud as we can,
• 3:38
  Speaker 7: hold up, hold up silly little signs so that everyone
• 3:42
  Speaker 7: can have a little laugh. And I believe that it's
• 3:46
  Speaker 7: just a great place to be.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: So how did how did this get started? Where did
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: read Rowdies you know, get its origin?
• 3:53
  Speaker 6: Yeah?
• 3:54
  Speaker 7: So read Rowdy started in two thousand and one after
• 3:58
  Speaker 7: the men's basketball team moved from g Rowley White to
• 4:01
  Speaker 7: Read Arena.
• 4:03
  Speaker 6: G Rowley White, the.
• 4:04
  Speaker 7: Holler House on the Brasses classic to all the old
• 4:08
  Speaker 7: Aggs out there. Sure, but unfortunately, you know, read Rowdies
• 4:11
  Speaker 7: came Read Arena came in to take its place, and
• 4:17
  Speaker 7: students at the time really wanted to get more organized.
• 4:19
  Speaker 7: They wanted to create even harsher environments with the new
• 4:24
  Speaker 7: larger arena, and they felt like they could get an
• 4:28
  Speaker 7: organization together to make it. And what birth in March
• 4:34
  Speaker 7: of two thousand and one was read Rowdies. Since then,
• 4:38
  Speaker 7: we've been supporting all the athletic teams in Red Arena.
• 4:42
  Speaker 7: There have been many generations of Aggies who been part
• 4:45
  Speaker 7: of Read Rowdies, and they've all gotten to experience some
• 4:49
  Speaker 7: amazing things in their lifetimes. And here we are carrying
• 4:52
  Speaker 7: the church still and we're excited for this upcoming season.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely, We've got a lot to be excited about
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: with reigning national champions in volleyball and Bucky McMillan getting
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: getting it going for the men's basketball team after last year.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: So we'll get to that a little later. So for
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: the organization, I know that y'all do work hand in
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: hand with the athletic department a little bit. So what
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: do the logistics look like on game day. You know,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: what are what are some things the y'all do before
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: you know the rest of the student population gets there.
• 5:26
  Speaker 6: Yeah, so we get to.
• 5:28
  Speaker 7: The arena before anyone else does well, other than like
• 5:31
  Speaker 7: athletic staff, but we're the first students on the site.
• 5:35
  Speaker 6: We get in early.
• 5:36
  Speaker 7: We set up a bunch of signs as well as
• 5:42
  Speaker 7: what the athletic department does is they spend a lot
• 5:46
  Speaker 7: of money on newspapers from the battalion. And what we'll
• 5:49
  Speaker 7: do is we'll set up all those newspapers in the
• 5:51
  Speaker 7: lower bowl of the student section so that students can
• 5:54
  Speaker 7: hold them up during certain times of the pregame and
• 5:59
  Speaker 7: during the game. We have all these really silly signs
• 6:03
  Speaker 7: in where we get to hold them up whenever something
• 6:05
  Speaker 7: happens during a game, or just to get into the
• 6:08
  Speaker 7: other team's head. And something what I find amazing about
• 6:12
  Speaker 7: read rowdies is that if we think that there's something
• 6:15
  Speaker 7: that we can do to create a better environment, get
• 6:19
  Speaker 7: more students to come out, or even create just a
• 6:23
  Speaker 7: more intimidating environment for the other team, we can pitch
• 6:27
  Speaker 7: our ideas to the athletic department and the staff, and
• 6:30
  Speaker 7: they've always been really great at hearing us out and
• 6:33
  Speaker 7: we've tried some amazing things because of it.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: So you mentioned the newspapers from the Battalion. For those
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: of you all don't know, the Battalion is the student
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: run newspaper on Texas A and M University campus. So
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: how did that get started? I know that's kind of
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: a niche thing to do to print newspapers and pass
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: them out, especially in twenty twenty six. So where did
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: that tradition come from?
• 6:56
  Speaker 7: Yeah, so it's considered an old army tradition. It started
• 7:01
  Speaker 7: in the seventies at again g Rowley White when coach
• 7:05
  Speaker 7: Shelby Metcalf. There were some students camping out for the
• 7:09
  Speaker 7: TU game, and students are always camping out for twou
• 7:13
  Speaker 7: games and every sport.
• 7:14
  Speaker 6: Absolutely I know all about that.
• 7:16
  Speaker 7: But whenever they were camping out, the coach Shelby went
• 7:20
  Speaker 7: out and he asked the students to pass out a
• 7:23
  Speaker 7: bunch of newspapers so that whenever the other team was
• 7:28
  Speaker 7: being announced by like their their starting lineup, all the
• 7:31
  Speaker 7: students would hold up the newspapers as to indicate that
• 7:35
  Speaker 7: nobody cared who was playing and that we were ready
• 7:38
  Speaker 7: to play whoever was on that court.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Nice that's pretty cool. And now, of course the newspapers,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: i'll say, btho insert team name here.
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's it's really great.
• 7:49
  Speaker 7: It's really funny to see every student holding them up,
• 7:52
  Speaker 7: and then after the opposing team's name has been called
• 7:56
  Speaker 7: out and we're getting to announce our teams, we all
• 7:58
  Speaker 7: crumple them up and throw them in the air as
• 8:01
  Speaker 7: like a sign of celebration that we get to hear
• 8:03
  Speaker 7: our guys and yeah, we're the ones that are going
• 8:06
  Speaker 7: to be victorious that day.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it definitely get gets read arena hype. It's a
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: great environment for sure. So you know you've been involved
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: with this for a couple of years. Now, how did
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: you how did you get into this? And how long
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: have you been doing it now?
• 8:20
  Speaker 6: Yeah, so I'd like to say I've been doing it
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: for three years.
• 8:24
  Speaker 7: One year was technically unofficial, but I've been doing this
• 8:27
  Speaker 7: now for two years officially. When I first came to
• 8:30
  Speaker 7: Texas A and M in twenty twenty four as a transfer,
• 8:34
  Speaker 7: I met some people at Aggie baseball games, and then
• 8:39
  Speaker 7: once I officially became a student and I was looking
• 8:43
  Speaker 7: to hang out with them, they informed me that they
• 8:44
  Speaker 7: were part of read rowdies. Unfortunately, I missed the application
• 8:47
  Speaker 7: deadline because I didn't know about it, so I was
• 8:50
  Speaker 7: kind of unofficial, and I kind of just hung around
• 8:52
  Speaker 7: and I helped out whenever I could. But when twenty
• 8:55
  Speaker 7: twenty five came around, I decided, you know, I'm going
• 8:58
  Speaker 7: to become an official member, and I applied.
• 9:00
  Speaker 6: I made it in, and.
• 9:03
  Speaker 7: I attended almost every home athletic event for basketball and
• 9:08
  Speaker 7: volleyball for the twenty twenty five and twenty twenty six season.
• 9:12
  Speaker 7: During the off seasons of both basketball and volleyball, our
• 9:17
  Speaker 7: current or our last president, Quinn Leith, came up to
• 9:20
  Speaker 7: me and he asked me if I was wanting to
• 9:21
  Speaker 7: become the president for this upcoming year. I felt honored,
• 9:24
  Speaker 7: you know, I felt like there was no way that
• 9:28
  Speaker 7: in one in a span of two years, I kind
• 9:31
  Speaker 7: of went from like a volunteer coach to head coach
• 9:35
  Speaker 7: in a way, and it really got me excited. And
• 9:40
  Speaker 7: I've been I've got so many ideas, so many plans,
• 9:44
  Speaker 7: and I'm excited to enact them all and do my
• 9:46
  Speaker 7: best to have read Rowdies as well as rid Arena
• 9:50
  Speaker 7: be the best place in the country.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: So how different is this year going to be for
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: you going from you know, just a member to the
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: president of the organization.
• 9:58
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I know, like I I tend to be like
• 10:01
  Speaker 7: a very hands on approach guy, especially when it comes
• 10:03
  Speaker 7: to supporting my athletic teams.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: Firsthand experience, Yes, I can attest to that if.
• 10:09
  Speaker 7: You've probably seen me at a baseball game as the
• 10:12
  Speaker 7: throat in the dirt guy, or solid three to four
• 10:16
  Speaker 7: years back at football games during the last couple of
• 10:19
  Speaker 7: years of Jimbo's era as the helmet guy, where I
• 10:23
  Speaker 7: wore a helmet in the first Bowl. So I know
• 10:26
  Speaker 7: that I've always been pretty hands on and wanting to
• 10:29
  Speaker 7: make the best venues in college athletics. For my fight
• 10:33
  Speaker 7: in Texas, Aggy's and I just want to bring that,
• 10:36
  Speaker 7: like the energy and these these elaborate and silly ideas
• 10:42
  Speaker 7: to read and read rowdies.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: Sure, so, since you've been an Aggie, we've had some
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: We've had some pretty high highs and some pretty low lows.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: But would have been some of your favorite moments since
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: you've been a member of read rowdies.
• 10:56
  Speaker 6: I'll give you a top three.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, it's hard to narrow it down.
• 10:59
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it's really really hard. The first one that definitely
• 11:02
  Speaker 7: comes to mind is women's volleyball against tu in twenty
• 11:07
  Speaker 7: twenty five. That was my first A and M versus
• 11:13
  Speaker 7: Texas win as a Texas A and M student, and
• 11:17
  Speaker 7: that moment will always stick with me.
• 11:19
  Speaker 6: The five set.
• 11:19
  Speaker 7: Thriller on Halloween Night where everyone had silly costumes and
• 11:25
  Speaker 7: it was I mean, and then it eventually led to
• 11:28
  Speaker 7: a national championship. I mean, you can, I can, like
• 11:30
  Speaker 7: just looking back on it, that moment just it was
• 11:33
  Speaker 7: a catalyst for everything I was going to be feeling
• 11:35
  Speaker 7: for the rest of that volleyball season.
• 11:39
  Speaker 6: Another moment is the win against Auburn in twenty twenty five.
• 11:44
  Speaker 6: I believe.
• 11:46
  Speaker 7: During the spring semester of twenty twenty five. Getting to
• 11:51
  Speaker 7: upset Auburn that day was amazing. And it's ironic because
• 11:56
  Speaker 7: I met some of my closest friends during that game
• 12:00
  Speaker 7: and everyone was just so high on energy, so high
• 12:04
  Speaker 7: on life, and I was just I was just really
• 12:08
  Speaker 7: really proud of my team that day, especially because I
• 12:12
  Speaker 7: also got to see my first jersey retiring for Wade
• 12:17
  Speaker 7: Taylor the fourth I got to see him come in
• 12:20
  Speaker 7: as a freshman, not as a student, but like I
• 12:22
  Speaker 7: watched his entire career as a fan, So seeing his
• 12:25
  Speaker 7: jersey get retired was a really special moment for me.
• 12:29
  Speaker 6: And then.
• 12:31
  Speaker 7: Last, but definitely, definitely not least, was Bucky McMillan's first
• 12:37
  Speaker 7: one hundred point game at Texas A and m oh yeah.
• 12:40
  Speaker 7: I got so used to high defense, low scoring games
• 12:45
  Speaker 7: for Aggie basketball that whenever we broke that hundred point barrier,
• 12:50
  Speaker 7: that's when I knew. I was like, man, this is
• 12:51
  Speaker 7: going to be an exciting, exciting time for Texas A
• 12:54
  Speaker 7: and basketball. And I'm very jealous of all these students
• 12:57
  Speaker 7: that get to come in and experience all all these
• 13:00
  Speaker 7: exciting moments that are upcoming and I only get to have.
• 13:03
  Speaker 6: Two years of it.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the class of twenty thirty is definitely going to
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: be blessed in terms of athletic prowess here at this university.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: It's also pretty insane to say that freshman, incoming freshman
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: or class of twenty thirty, that's a whole different decade
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: man world.
• 13:18
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 13:18
  Speaker 7: Being class of twenty six Yeah is very interesting, especially
• 13:22
  Speaker 7: as like a transfer, because I should have graduated, but hey,
• 13:26
  Speaker 7: here we are.
• 13:27
  Speaker 6: We're still here. We still got time, and I'm going
• 13:29
  Speaker 6: to make the best of it.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you mentioned that Auburn game way to their senior year.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: That was the end of my first full year at
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: A and M, and I remember being at that game.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Actually got out of an exam like twenty minutes after
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: the game started, and I had had to squeeze my
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: way into the second deck. But that was that was
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: an amazing game. That was so much fun to watch.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: And you know, that brand of basketball was definitely very
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: different to what we have now, but that was definitely
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: one of the most electric games that they played in
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: that era.
• 13:58
  Speaker 7: I would say, yeah, if I remember correctly, there was
• 14:01
  Speaker 7: like a back to back dunk and.
• 14:03
  Speaker 6: We also got to stop on it.
• 14:05
  Speaker 7: I remember that it was just so electric, and like
• 14:07
  Speaker 7: I that's one of the very few moments where I
• 14:11
  Speaker 7: was like, this is one of the highest highs I
• 14:15
  Speaker 7: will feel in an athletic event. Sure, I'd say the
• 14:19
  Speaker 7: only other highest high that I have felt for an
• 14:23
  Speaker 7: athletic event was when we beat Texas in that baseball regional.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah. No, that was definitely on.
• 14:28
  Speaker 7: That blunder at third base which gave us the winning run.
• 14:33
  Speaker 7: I'd say, like that moment is definitely right up there.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: Sure, Yeah, no, we could we could talk all day
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: and all night about best Aggie sports moments. Yeah, that's
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: that's definitely a tough question to narrow down to just
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: one answer. But switching gears, getting a little more specific here,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: the Aggi volleyball team under coach Jamie Morrison did win
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: the NCAA National championship this past season. It was a
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: great year, great year. First first national championship we've had
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: in anything that wasn't tennis or track and field in
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: a while, so that was pretty cool to see. You know.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: So what are what are you looking forward to in
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: this upcoming season? How do you think coach Morrison and
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: you know, some new players on this squad, how do
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: you think they're gonna be able to defend their national championship?
• 15:25
  Speaker 6: Yeah? No, I uh.
• 15:27
  Speaker 7: First I want to say Jamie Morrison is definitely one
• 15:30
  Speaker 7: of the best coaches.
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: No, no, he is the best coach out there.
• 15:34
  Speaker 7: You know, not only of just like by his coaching
• 15:37
  Speaker 7: prowess and who like how he coaches, but who he
• 15:40
  Speaker 7: is as a person to It's kind of insane, at
• 15:44
  Speaker 7: least in my eyes, being as like a just like
• 15:48
  Speaker 7: as a lowly fan at one point, you know that
• 15:52
  Speaker 7: coach Morrison has like noticed who I am because I
• 15:55
  Speaker 7: will I'll remember the first game of volleyball this year
• 15:59
  Speaker 7: that we went to and he came up to us
• 16:01
  Speaker 7: and he said, hey, you guys have been absolutely electric
• 16:05
  Speaker 7: at baseball. Can you bring some of those traditions from
• 16:08
  Speaker 7: baseball over to volleyball.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: I love it when I love it when coaches from
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: other sports notice, you know, what the fans are like
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: at the other arenas. Like, you know, we saw Bucky
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: come to olsen Field when he first got hired and
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: participate in that, and we've seen Mike Elcho come out
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: to Olsenfield as well. It's really it's really cool to
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: me when the coaches from other sports recognize each other.
• 16:29
  Speaker 6: But yeah, go on, yeah, I mean, it's it's great.
• 16:31
  Speaker 7: That's I think that's what makes like these coaches at
• 16:34
  Speaker 7: Texas A and M amazing as well as at Texas
• 16:36
  Speaker 7: A and M culture is that support is unwavering for
• 16:39
  Speaker 7: whichever sport that is playing. But going back to that
• 16:44
  Speaker 7: first game for this twenty twenty five year, when Jamie
• 16:48
  Speaker 7: came up to us and he he said that he
• 16:50
  Speaker 7: recognized us from baseball and wanted to bring some traditions
• 16:54
  Speaker 7: and some electric things over from baseball. Yeah, that that
• 16:57
  Speaker 7: made me feel stand out. You know, I was because
• 17:01
  Speaker 7: in my head, you know, I'm just some guy who
• 17:04
  Speaker 7: is just being as loud as they can at a
• 17:06
  Speaker 7: game just to be silly. But another coach from another team, uh,
• 17:12
  Speaker 7: decided that you know, we were worthy enough of like
• 17:17
  Speaker 7: their recognition and their praise, and that they wanted to
• 17:20
  Speaker 7: they wanted to bring that energy into their into into
• 17:24
  Speaker 7: their venue because it is his venue, you know, Like sure,
• 17:27
  Speaker 7: Red Route Read Arena is both basketball and volleyball, but
• 17:33
  Speaker 7: whenever volleyball is playing, you know, that is Jamie Morrison's venue.
• 17:36
  Speaker 6: You know, that is his atmosphere.
• 17:38
  Speaker 7: Sure, and like us for Reid rowdies, what we want
• 17:41
  Speaker 7: to do is create the atmosphere in his image.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: Absolutely. So you know, pretty loaded home schedule for the
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: volleyball team this year.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: They do get started on the road in Wisconsin against
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Louisville and SMU at the a VCA first Serve, but
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: then the Texas A and M invitation of the week
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: after that with Arkansas State, Grand Canyon University and cal
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: Poly and then a pretty big non conference game against
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Wisconsin on September eleventh, and a few other good games,
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: and then of course you got the SEC Slate, which
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: is always really tough and a lot of fun. Unfortunately,
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: Texas does not come to Read Arena for volleyball this year,
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: but you know, we get LSU and Ole Miss and Tennessee,
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: so a lot of good matchups for sure. But you know,
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: what game are you most looking forward to?
• 18:30
  Speaker 7: I say the game that I'm looking forward to most
• 18:33
  Speaker 7: this year is going against with Wisconsin at home.
• 18:37
  Speaker 6: It's not the first home game, but it's going to
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: be electric.
• 18:42
  Speaker 7: Wisconsin, like they made a run last year for the
• 18:44
  Speaker 7: national championship, They're always a very very good team. I'm very,
• 18:49
  Speaker 7: very excited to welcome them into Read Arena and give
• 18:53
  Speaker 7: them a slug fest from not just our fantastic players
• 18:59
  Speaker 7: and our fantastic coaching staff, but also from US fans
• 19:02
  Speaker 7: who have you know, definitely bought into Jamie Morrison's style
• 19:08
  Speaker 7: of play as well as Jamie Morrison as a coach.
• 19:11
  Speaker 7: I think that Jamie Morrison is going to build a
• 19:17
  Speaker 7: dynasty here.
• 19:18
  Speaker 6: At Texas A and M.
• 19:20
  Speaker 7: He has a lot of fantastic values as well as
• 19:25
  Speaker 7: he's always just a fighter, and going against a team
• 19:28
  Speaker 7: like Wisconsin, who is you know, at least from what
• 19:31
  Speaker 7: I understand, not big in the volleyball world, but from
• 19:35
  Speaker 7: what from the people who are they've told me, Wisconsin
• 19:38
  Speaker 7: is somewhat of like a blue blood. Yeah, so them
• 19:41
  Speaker 7: coming to Reed Arena, where they get to meet not
• 19:44
  Speaker 7: only Jamie Morrison but the Reed rowdies, I believe is
• 19:48
  Speaker 7: going to be one of the most electric games of
• 19:50
  Speaker 7: all time.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Definitely shaping up to be a great matchup. But
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: a lot of great games in this Aggie volleyball season.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: That road game against Kentucky's one that I've got circleds.
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: That's gonna be big. That's gonna be big for the
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: momentum of the season.
• 20:05
  Speaker 9: You know.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: It's right there in the middle of the SEC slate.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: It's a rematch from I think it was the SIMP
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: that was the that was the next the final.
• 20:12
  Speaker 7: Yeah, which is ironic because they came to Rid Arena.
• 20:16
  Speaker 7: We lost to them in three to two, I believe, No,
• 20:19
  Speaker 7: we got swept.
• 20:20
  Speaker 6: I believe it was. It was a pretty rough day
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: at Reed.
• 20:26
  Speaker 7: I remember we were all pretty disappointed, but getting to
• 20:32
  Speaker 7: getting to take them, take them out for a national championship,
• 20:36
  Speaker 7: it definitely made that loss all the all the better.
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it always it's always really hard to beat
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: a good team twice in a season. You see it
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: in every sport. You see it in high school football
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: when a team matches up in district play and then
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: they run into the same team in the playoffs. A
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: lot of times it goes the other way. That's just
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: the beautiful thing about team sports is you never know
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: what's gonna happen. But yeah, that road game October twenty
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: fifth at Kentucky, that one's I think that's gonna be
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: pretty big for the season in general, just keeping that
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: positive momentum going, especially right off of a road game
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: in Georgia. So looking forward to a great Aggie volleyball season.
• 21:17

  Speaker 1: Welcome back to Chip Howard Sports Talk here on a
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: Thursday evening. Caleb Rapley here filling in for Chip. We're
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: talking to the president of the Reid Rowdy Student Organization,
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: mister Wrenn Delos Santos. Second segment of our interview here
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: with Wren so moving over to the basketball side of
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: things with the men's basketball team and Bucky McMillan. So
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: gonna be year two of Bucky Ball. We saw in
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: the past season the brand of basketball that he wants
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: to play, high scoring but still not slacking on defense.
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: It's really fun to watch. It's definitely like even though
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: it was his first season and you know, maybe he
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: hasn't fully had time to get his guys and get
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: his system installed the way that he wants, it was
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: still a lot of fun to watch. Got the run
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: to the round of third to two, just the second
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: round of March Madness. Getting that first round win and
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: just not going one and done in the NCAA tournament.
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: I think was big for the program in year one
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: to have that victory. How do you think Bucky's going
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: to continue this positive momentum into his second year? And
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: how's Reed Routes is going to support him in the team.
• 28:20
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 28:20
  Speaker 7: I think Bucky McMillan is going to be doing some
• 28:22
  Speaker 7: amazing things this second year. I mean, just look at
• 28:25
  Speaker 7: last year. We were leading the conference for what I
• 28:27
  Speaker 7: believe the.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: First eight weeks something like that.
• 28:30
  Speaker 7: It was amazing. I mean, Reid Rowdies or a Red
• 28:34
  Speaker 7: Arena had never been so high. And then when Florida
• 28:36
  Speaker 7: came in, it was pretty great. It was packed house.
• 28:40
  Speaker 7: I remember, like us for the Rowdies, we were stressing
• 28:44
  Speaker 7: to get that game all set up properly because we
• 28:47
  Speaker 7: knew that it was just going to be a really
• 28:48
  Speaker 7: really big matchup. Fortunately did not go away, but hey,
• 28:51
  Speaker 7: that's how the game plays sometimes, and that's okay. But
• 28:55
  Speaker 7: this second year, Bucky McMillan is going to be doing
• 28:57
  Speaker 7: amazing things. I already know it. We've talked to him
• 29:02
  Speaker 7: about how to make the arena even better, especially with
• 29:07
  Speaker 7: like the change of pace, because you know, he is
• 29:11
  Speaker 7: a very fast pace for basketball, and we've had to
• 29:14
  Speaker 7: change some of our traditions or some of the way
• 29:18
  Speaker 7: we'd say or do things around that fast paced because
• 29:20
  Speaker 7: something's always happening.
• 29:23
  Speaker 6: But he has been an amazing coach. He's been super
• 29:28
  Speaker 6: supportive of Reid.
• 29:29
  Speaker 7: Rowdies, and he's if we've asked for something, he has
• 29:34
  Speaker 7: always been one hundred percent behind us, And because of that,
• 29:38
  Speaker 7: we always want to be one hundred percent behind him,
• 29:40
  Speaker 7: because we believe he deserves it. He's had an absolute
• 29:44
  Speaker 7: culture shock to the program, and I believe people are
• 29:50
  Speaker 7: definitely going to be buying into him next year.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: And uh so, same question that I had with volleyball,
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: A really really great homeslate for men's basketball as well.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: In the non conference, you've got Stanford coming to town.
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: I think that's the SEC ACC Challenge game that's December
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: two in Ried Arena. They're always a solid, solid program,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: but the SEC schedule is loaded as always. We're going
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: to have Vanderbilt, LSU, and Texas as our mirror opponents,
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: so we'll play them at home and on the road.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: And then the teams that we'll play just at home
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: in the SEC schedule are Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Georgia, Oklahoma,
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: and Tennessee. So we get Oklahoma at home back to
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: back years. I think we're on the road at Auburn
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: last year. That sounds right, but really loaded slate, so
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna go ahead and just say other than the
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: Texas game, because that's the answer that most people would give,
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: is what game are you most excited for? We're playing
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: Texas at home, it's going to be that one. Doesn't
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: matter the sport, doesn't matter where we're ranked, doesn't matter
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: where they're ranked. That's the game that everybody's excited for,
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: just because that's how it works in this rivalry. It's
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: one of the most It's the beautiful thing about this
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: rivalries that even if Texas is really good and we're
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: slacking a little bit or vice versa, it's always going
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: to be a really intense game. That's just the way
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: rivalries work. But other than the Texas game, what game
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: would you say you're most excited for? For men's basketball
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: this year?
• 31:28
  Speaker 7: I would have to say either Georgia or Vanderbilt. I
• 31:32
  Speaker 7: I love Vanderbilt as a basketball school. I mean, they've
• 31:35
  Speaker 7: always been They've always been pretty hurting in football, except
• 31:39
  Speaker 7: for a little bit recently.
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: But we'll see if that keeps up now that Diego
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: Papa's gone.
• 31:44
  Speaker 7: But sure, yeah, I don't know how they're going to
• 31:48
  Speaker 7: be this year with football. I hope the best for
• 31:49
  Speaker 7: them because they deserve it. They've been through so much
• 31:52
  Speaker 7: as a fan base, sure, but they've always been a
• 31:55
  Speaker 7: really really good basketball school. And I remember a couple
• 32:00
  Speaker 7: of years back when they stormed the court three times
• 32:04
  Speaker 7: and they had to put a counter on to wait
• 32:07
  Speaker 7: to storm the court.
• 32:08
  Speaker 6: And I always found that story really really funny.
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was crazy.
• 32:12
  Speaker 7: So I've always I kind of fell in love with
• 32:15
  Speaker 7: Vanderbilt's fan base after that. But something I would also like.
• 32:20
  Speaker 7: The other team that I'm super excited to play is Georgia.
• 32:23
  Speaker 7: Georgia's always been a very very great basketball team, especially
• 32:28
  Speaker 7: going against the Aggies, very defense heavy, they'll definitely get
• 32:32
  Speaker 7: you like in the paint. And I just I always
• 32:36
  Speaker 7: love to see like the Maroons versus the Reds, especially
• 32:42
  Speaker 7: because like a andem was originally supposed to be read
• 32:45
  Speaker 7: until like the Jersey Company just they messed up our cullies.
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: I'm so glad they did.
• 32:50
  Speaker 6: I'm so glad they did too. Maroon is such a
• 32:52
  Speaker 6: beautiful color.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we could have been basic and been read like
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: half of the schools in the nation, but at least,
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: you know, we have a somewhat unique shade of a color.
• 33:01
  Speaker 7: But go on, it's it's a it's a very beautiful color.
• 33:04
  Speaker 7: I like to call it true maroon. I don't know
• 33:06
  Speaker 7: what it's actually called.
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: But I think that's what I think. That's what a
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: m brands it as when they like put out the
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: the heck's color code, they call it true maroon whatever
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: that means. But yeah, it is. It's a good color,
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: objectively good color.
• 33:20
  Speaker 7: But George is always just such a fun team to play,
• 33:23
  Speaker 7: and they've they've always been really friendly with us, uh
• 33:26
  Speaker 7: in Read Arena. It's always, uh, really fun bantering back
• 33:31
  Speaker 7: and forth because both of our mascots are dogs. Uh
• 33:35
  Speaker 7: So there's always been a good couple of times where
• 33:37
  Speaker 7: we're just jokingly barking back and forth to each other.
• 33:40
  Speaker 6: And I mean, I just I love it.
• 33:42
  Speaker 7: I've never really had an issue with Georgia fans for basketball,
• 33:45
  Speaker 7: so I'm excited to have them back here in Read
• 33:48
  Speaker 7: Arena absolutely.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: So Read rowdies does travel a little bit, you know,
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: probably not officially, but no, we do travel officially. Okay, okay,
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: you do travel officially. So y'all were at the A
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: lot of y'all were at the Kansas City National Championship
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: Game for volleyball. Some of the road basketball games as well.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: So going out to those other campuses, those other schools,
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: you get to see some of the other schools student
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: sections and how how into the game they are. So
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: how would you say that Reid Rowties compares to some
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: of those other schools that you've seen.
• 34:24
  Speaker 7: Yeah, No, there are so many amazing fan bases in
• 34:29
  Speaker 7: this country. I have seen players come out in like
• 34:34
  Speaker 7: like six foot snow like for that Auburn game, and
• 34:37
  Speaker 7: yet there was still like a good chunk of students
• 34:39
  Speaker 7: out there when we had that buzzer beater that was
• 34:43
  Speaker 7: canceled out for Auburn. Very concert Ussell call, but I
• 34:47
  Speaker 7: think it was called right. But and then like there's
• 34:50
  Speaker 7: fan bases like LSU. They they are very, very into it.
• 34:53
  Speaker 7: Tennessee basketball fans are amazing. Texas I as much as
• 34:58
  Speaker 7: I hate to say it, I hate to say it
• 35:00
  Speaker 7: that they have an amazing volleyball fan base, they are
• 35:04
  Speaker 7: very into it. They I have seen so many amazing
• 35:09
  Speaker 7: fan bases in my lifetime for both basketball and volleyball.
• 35:13
  Speaker 7: But like I've I've never in my life seen an amazing,
• 35:21
  Speaker 7: more amazing fan base than Texas A and M. It's
• 35:28
  Speaker 7: the reason why I fell in love with Texas a
• 35:30
  Speaker 7: and M. Unbeknownst to me, when I was a kid,
• 35:34
  Speaker 7: I fell in love with read Rowdies. I didn't even
• 35:36
  Speaker 7: know they were a thing, but they made one of
• 35:39
  Speaker 7: my biggest core memories as a child that I have
• 35:44
  Speaker 7: to say that read Rowdies is the best fan base
• 35:48
  Speaker 7: in the SEC. I know we are the best fan
• 35:52
  Speaker 7: base in the country. We are so loud, we are
• 35:56
  Speaker 7: so fanatical, and the unwavering support that we will give
• 36:02
  Speaker 7: our teams. We've been through so many highs and so
• 36:05
  Speaker 7: many lows, but regardless, we're still there for our teams,
• 36:09
  Speaker 7: not only because of the love that we have for
• 36:12
  Speaker 7: our programs, for coaches, for our players, but also.
• 36:15
  Speaker 6: The love that we have for each other.
• 36:18
  Speaker 7: Read Rowdies is a family, and I think that's what
• 36:21
  Speaker 7: definitely sets us apart from every other fan base in
• 36:25
  Speaker 7: this country, is not just the love for the sport
• 36:30
  Speaker 7: and the team and the branding and the colors, but
• 36:34
  Speaker 7: the love for each other as a family.
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah. For sure, You've heard it said about a lot
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: of a lot of different teams and organizations, but I
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: think it's most fitting for the Aggies. We've seen them
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: win and we've seen them lose, but we've never seen
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: them quit. I will always stand by that absolutely. So
• 36:54

  Speaker 1: Zone eleven fifty AM, ninety three point seven FM. Caleb
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: Rapley here filling in for Chip. Almost out of time
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: here on a Thursday. We're going to hear in just
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: a minute from Caid Phillips, Texa and basketball player Herd
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: from Tennessee. This offseason, where he spent the first three
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: years of his collegiate career. He was really a solid
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: bench piece for the Volunteers in the twenty four to
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: twenty five season, average fifteen minutes a game, but this
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: past season he missed most of it with shoulder surgery.
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: Only got in ten games, started nine of those, So
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: was looking to be a much bigger piece of the
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: puzzle for Tennessee last year before that nagging shoulder injury
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: required surgery. He was originally recruited by Bucky McMillan back
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: when Bucky was at Stamford. Kate is from Jacksonville, Alabama,
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: so has known Bucky for a long time. That's probably
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: a pretty big factor in why he ended up coming
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: to A and M. And I'm pretty excited to see
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: him play this upcoming season. He's going to be really
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: key for were the Aggies front court. Earlier this week
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: he met with the media and here's some of what
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: he had to say. Curious, what went to your position guard.
• 45:12
  Speaker 19: To absolutely, you know, the portal, especially right now in
• 45:16
  Speaker 19: today's day and age of college basketball is is hectic,
• 45:20
  Speaker 19: and so you know, a past relationship like I had
• 45:23
  Speaker 19: with Bucky, you know, being from the Birmingham area and
• 45:26
  Speaker 19: him being from Birmingham and coaching through there, obviously instantly
• 45:30
  Speaker 19: drew me near to here at the very beginning of
• 45:32
  Speaker 19: this process when when they reached out and so you know,
• 45:35
  Speaker 19: getting to come out here and and and get to
• 45:39
  Speaker 19: meet everybody and get to see the culture that he's
• 45:41
  Speaker 19: beginning to start here and and really the momentum that
• 45:45
  Speaker 19: that this program is is gaining, It was it was
• 45:48
  Speaker 19: hard to.
• 45:48
  Speaker 6: Say, No, how would you describe that culture.
• 45:51
  Speaker 19: It's a culture that that plays hard and and and
• 45:54
  Speaker 19: plays the right way. And I think that's something that
• 45:57
  Speaker 19: especially in as modern of a style of basketball as
• 46:01
  Speaker 19: as we play, is is few and far between. You know,
• 46:04
  Speaker 19: to have a coach that coaches us as hard as
• 46:06
  Speaker 19: he does, you know, that's that's what goes into winning,
• 46:10
  Speaker 19: and is what I'm I wanted to be a part of.
• 46:12
  Speaker 21: The team that was sort of yearning for for size
• 46:14
  Speaker 21: and length last year. Just what do you hope to
• 46:16
  Speaker 21: bring to the table to sort of bring your eleventve
• 46:18
  Speaker 21: game and to improve the aggus this year?
• 46:20
  Speaker 6: Yeah?
• 46:21
  Speaker 19: Absolutely, And and and the trend of college basketball, the
• 46:24
  Speaker 19: teams that have gone deep in the teams that have
• 46:27
  Speaker 19: wanted all are the teams that can play fast. With
• 46:29
  Speaker 19: the teams I can also play physical. You know, you
• 46:31
  Speaker 19: have to be able to win shootouts against Alabama and
• 46:33
  Speaker 19: win the rock fights against Florida, and so to be
• 46:35
  Speaker 19: able to bring both of those is what I plan
• 46:38
  Speaker 19: to bring. Bring the speed, bring the physicality, and then
• 46:41
  Speaker 19: whatever the game needs, I'll give. And you know, I
• 46:43
  Speaker 19: think we have a lot of guys that are in
• 46:46
  Speaker 19: that virtutile middle of being able to play physical but
• 46:48
  Speaker 19: also being able to get up and down.
• 46:50
  Speaker 14: Can you talk about what you bring from a leadership standpoint.
• 46:53
  Speaker 6: To this team?
• 46:54
  Speaker 7: Yeah?
• 46:55
  Speaker 19: You know, I have been lucky enough to be a
• 46:57
  Speaker 19: great part of a great program at Tennessee and be
• 47:00
  Speaker 19: a part of a lot of winning and you know,
• 47:02
  Speaker 19: being able to be a part of that and lead
• 47:03
  Speaker 19: some of those teams, I know that there is a
• 47:06
  Speaker 19: standard that all great coaches and great programs hold hold
• 47:10
  Speaker 19: their players to and so being able to be a
• 47:12
  Speaker 19: part of that and be a part of that that leadership,
• 47:16
  Speaker 19: it's something that I've seen done and have done before.
• 47:20
  Speaker 19: And so you know, and we we have an incredibly
• 47:22
  Speaker 19: great group of guys this year, and they make my
• 47:26
  Speaker 19: job to make the coaches jobs easy. You know that
• 47:29
  Speaker 19: we have guys that are ready to learn and and
• 47:31
  Speaker 19: ready to push each other every day, and so just
• 47:33
  Speaker 19: being out there and being in that fire with them,
• 47:36
  Speaker 19: and and and keeping their head focused on the goals
• 47:39
  Speaker 19: that we have ahead and just winning every day.
• 47:42
  Speaker 10: Going from a system that's a lot more methodical, how
• 47:44
  Speaker 10: has this transition been from you to this up tempo otyle.
• 47:48
  Speaker 19: Yeah, a lot of running in practice, you know, we uh,
• 47:52
  Speaker 19: we we get up and down a lot in practice,
• 47:55
  Speaker 19: and everything is ninety miles per hour. But I do
• 47:58
  Speaker 19: think that that the speed plays in a lot of
• 48:00
  Speaker 19: my advantage of athleticism and linked and so you know,
• 48:04
  Speaker 19: being able to I'd say, get used to making decisions faster.
• 48:11
  Speaker 19: And I think that has been the biggest difference from
• 48:14
  Speaker 19: coming from coming from a slower team to to a
• 48:17
  Speaker 19: faster team, is to make decisions faster, make reads quicker,
• 48:22
  Speaker 19: and I think my god given abilities will take over
• 48:25
  Speaker 19: from the rest.
• 48:26
  Speaker 20: What's impressed you most about your new teammates Is anything
• 48:29
  Speaker 20: surprised you?
• 48:30
  Speaker 19: You know, I would say all of them are surprises
• 48:33
  Speaker 19: because they're all new faces to me, you know. But
• 48:36
  Speaker 19: I'd say we have an incredible group of guys. More
• 48:40
  Speaker 19: than more than just players, you know, obviously, we have
• 48:42
  Speaker 19: talented guys that have come from all over the place.
• 48:44
  Speaker 19: Jaln Shelley, PJ. PJ. Haggarty and have come all over
• 48:49
  Speaker 19: the place and have had incredibly, incredibly successful careers already,
• 48:54
  Speaker 19: And so for for those guys to have as much
• 48:56
  Speaker 19: success in college basketball that they have, it's it's an
• 49:02
  Speaker 19: incredible group of guys. They haven't let any of them
• 49:04
  Speaker 19: get to their head. And so we're we're all here
• 49:06
  Speaker 19: on one mission and that's the win. The win the
• 49:08
  Speaker 19: next basketball game. And I think everybody everybody on that
• 49:10
  Speaker 19: this team knows it and they know that we have
• 49:12
  Speaker 19: to come together. And I think that's the most surprising
• 49:15
  Speaker 19: part is a group like us that has come from
• 49:17
  Speaker 19: all over the place to gel when we've all had
• 49:19
  Speaker 19: such good individual careers is the most surprising part.
• 49:25
  Speaker 21: From Alabama and playing at Tennessee, obviously you grew up
• 49:28
  Speaker 21: actually in the SEC footprint. What's it been like for
• 49:30
  Speaker 21: you to see this basketball league sort of enter its
• 49:34
  Speaker 21: golden era from where you grew up to now playing.
• 49:37
  Speaker 8: In the league.
• 49:38
  Speaker 19: Yeah, you know, growing up SEC basketball was I guess
• 49:46
  Speaker 19: nobody get offended me saying kind of mediocre, you know,
• 49:49
  Speaker 19: and so but I knew I always wanted to be
• 49:51
  Speaker 19: in the SEC SEC always had, usually had the best athletes,
• 49:54
  Speaker 19: usually always had you know a lot of draft picks,
• 49:57
  Speaker 19: especially you know, coming from Kentucky in those days and
• 50:00
  Speaker 19: being in the SEC footprint to see it become what
• 50:03
  Speaker 19: it's become, you know, I luckily have a really good
• 50:05
  Speaker 19: relationship with Garth Glissman, the Associate commission of the SEC,
• 50:09
  Speaker 19: who's over men's basketball. And to see the numbers and
• 50:12
  Speaker 19: and how just that far above and beyond that the
• 50:17
  Speaker 19: SEC is going in men's basketball alone is honestly incredibly
• 50:22
  Speaker 19: and for me to be a part of that and
• 50:23
  Speaker 19: to be you know, both in the offices and on
• 50:26
  Speaker 19: the court is something really cool to see. And I
• 50:29
  Speaker 19: don't think the SEC is going anywhere and in basketball, men's, men's, women's,
• 50:34
  Speaker 19: and you know obviously football. And I think because it
• 50:37
  Speaker 19: the saying is true, it really does just mean more.
• 50:40
  Speaker 19: And I think that is that is something we know
• 50:43
  Speaker 19: as a team that when we get to the SEC season,
• 50:45
  Speaker 19: it's going to be a dog fight every night.
• 50:47
  Speaker 13: What has it been like.
• 50:48
  Speaker 19: Integrating into Texas A and m as the school and
• 50:50
  Speaker 19: just life and college station. Man, it is hot out here.
• 50:54
  Speaker 19: I'm from I'm from Alabama. I think it is pretty
• 50:57
  Speaker 19: hot and humid there, and I have been warned by
• 51:00
  Speaker 19: so many people, and I was like, you know, this
• 51:02
  Speaker 19: is this is nothing. So it's hot and it's humid,
• 51:05
  Speaker 19: and it's hard to escape. But and then obviously the
• 51:07
  Speaker 19: culture this is there's an incredible culture that surrounds this place,
• 51:11
  Speaker 19: an incredible group of people. I have yet to meet
• 51:13
  Speaker 19: somebody that that just wasn't an absolutely awesome person here.
• 51:16
  Speaker 19: And I think that goes to how much this university
• 51:19
  Speaker 19: has loved and and the the overall character that this
• 51:23
  Speaker 19: this university values. And I think that just bleeds into
• 51:28
  Speaker 19: the surrounding area. And I think that is a great
• 51:33
  Speaker 19: representation of what colleges meant places is you know, you
• 51:37
  Speaker 19: have a college that values, you know what integrity and
• 51:41
  Speaker 19: all all these things that the school of values that
• 51:43
  Speaker 19: it'll bleed into the region.
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: All right. That was Caid Phillips, Texas A and M
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: men's basketball player. Caid transferred from Tennessee. Over this past offseason,
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: the Aggies and Bucky McMillan had the number eleven ranked
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: transfer portal class in the nation, bringing in six players
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: through the transfer portal. A total of eight players will
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: be completely new to the program, with one high school
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: signee Josh Irving out of Pasadena, California, and then Bryson Warren,
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: who will hopefully be joining the program. He did not
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: play college basketball, instead participated in the Overtime Elite League
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: and has spent the last year or two in the
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: G League, so this if he has approved to play
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: in the NCAA, this will be his first college basketball season.
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: Bryson is a guard six foot three, was pretty highly
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: ranked coming out of high school before he decided to
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: go the Overtime Elite route instead of the traditional college route.
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: But he's very good player will make a huge impact
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: if he is allowed to play. PJ. Haggerty definitely the
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: biggest name on the roster, transferred from Kansas State, was
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: one of the top ranked players in the portal. He
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: has averaged twenty one points per game in his four
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: college seasons over one hundred games, played for four different programs, TCU, Tulsa, Memphis,
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: and the aforementioned Kansas State Wildcats. He will probably be
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: the go to guy for scoring for the Aggies this year.
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: Twenty three point four points per game for Kansas State
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: last season, three point eight assist, five point three rebounds,
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: so very very good player. Excited to see him play,
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: and I think he will pair very nicely with Kate
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: Phillips and Mackenzie and Baco who will be returning from
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: injury this season. In Baco, I think is announced today
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: or yesterday that he is fully healthy and a full
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: participant in practices. So the Aggie basketball team will be
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: going to the Bahamas in August for a summer league.
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: I think it's just three or four games, but really
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: looking forward to that. See how these new players adjust
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: to the program and what the squad looks like this year.
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: I think they're going to be really solid. Not that
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: many returning players for the Aggies. I would say Zach
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: Clements is really the only one that's coming back that
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: played a lot of minutes for the team last year.
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: Obviously Imbaco, but he only played a few games before
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: he got hurt. Some other players that are back on
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: the team are Chris McDermott Jamie Vinson, but neither of
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: them were starters or played that many minutes. So it's
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: going to be, you know, a pretty new look team
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: with some of the other transfers coming in. Lucas Walls
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: from Radford College also played for Samford under Bucky McMillan
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, Jalen Shelley from Loyola Marymount
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: Tyshawn Archie from McNeice, and Jalen Reese from LSU. So
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: a lot of very highly touted guys, most of them guards,
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: which is interesting. But that's I think kind of just
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: how Bucky's gonna build this program. He's gonna run a
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: lot of guard heavy lineups out there and then anchored
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: by Embaco Phillips and probably Clements in the front court.
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: And that true freshman Josh Irving six foot ten forward
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: from California, will definitely be interesting to see how he
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: fits in as well. So really excited for this Aggie
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: basketball season upcoming. That's just about all the time we
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: have here on Sports Talk. We're gonna take one more
