Aggie basketball is set to finally hit the court as their 2022 season debut is less than a month away when the experienced and talented squad will host Louisiana Monroe on Monday, Nov. 7th.
One of the main reasons for optimism this season surrounds the offseason additions through the transfer portal, including guard Dexter Dennis (Witchita State), guard Khalen Robinson (Arkansas), forward Andersson Garcia (Mississippi State), forward Julius Marble (Michigan State), and sharp shooting JUCO transfer Erik Pratt, as head coach Buzz Williams knew that after the departure of star guard Quenton Jackson to the NBA, roster changes needed to be made, and depth needed to be established.
On Monday, The AP released its first preseason Top 25 poll, where the regular blue blood programs found themselves near the top, while the Aggies didn’t crack the Top 25 teams listed, but did come in at No. 26 with 112 votes. This is a great start for a program that is on the rise in Buzz Williams’s fourth season with the team, with what looks to be the most complete roster he’s had yet during his time at Texas A&M.
