Ever since Buzz Williams’ Aggie basketball team came up one shot short of an NIT championship in the 2021-2022 season, they’ve taken some hits. First, star guard Quenton Jackson declared for the 2022 NBA draft, then Hassan Diarra and Aaron Cash entered the transfer portal.
But the Aggie hoops program got some good news Monday as Julius Marble, a Dallas native, and 6-foot-9, 245 pound power forward transfer from Michigan State, announced that the next step in his career would be in taken in College Station as a member of Williams’ squad.
Marble played in all 36 games for the Spartans last year and averaged just over 6 points and 4 rebounds per game.
I want to Thank God for putting me in this position I would also like to thank my Mother, Chanler, Bob, Chris, Rich, Coach Buzz and the entire Staff. It’s been a long three years but I’m ready to come home!
I’d like to announce that I’ll be committing to Texas A&M!

Marble brings size and experience with him to College Station, and after his time with Tom Izzo at Michigan State, he’ll know what it takes to win at a high level.
