The 2022 college basketball season is upon us, and for Aggies head coach Buzz Williams, this season may define his coaching tenure with the maroon while entering his fourth season with the program, with what may be his most talented roster to date.
The 2021 season ended Texas A&M’s most wins in a season at 27-13 and reaching the NIT finals, falling to Xavier in the title game. Slightly damaged by the NCAA Tournament Committee left the resilient squad determined to prove that they belong in the big dance as the 2022 roster only lost one starter as star guard Quenton Jackson departed for the NBA, and gained four players in the transfer portal including guard Dexter Dennis, forward Julius Marble, guard Andersson Garcia, and guard Khalen Robinson.
On Monday night, Buzz Williams’s weekly radio show made its season debut, as the team prepares to open their season against Louisiana Monroe on Nov. 7th. During the interview with Voice of the Aggies, Andrew Monaco, William’s interestingly noted that the transfer portal in college basketball has been utilized at an all-time high stating that “37% of the league has transferred” so far leading up to the season.
When asked what this season’s “theme” is, Williams answered,
“Foresight.”
“Foresight is the ability to predict what will be needed in the future… We would like to do something that we haven’t done since we’ve been here.”
There is it, Foresight. This team is stacked from top to bottom, and we cannot wait to see what they can do on the court this season.
