J Brown with 6 points in two trips to spur a 10-1 run by the horns.  after looking out of it, they're definitely back in the mix, down 7 with about 8 minutes to go!

J Brown with a huge 4-point play to get the horns back in it!  down 9 with 8 to go.

a&m's last possession kind of sums up Texas' game so far.  they play great D for 33 seconds, and then the Ags hit a semi-desperation contested 3 to beat the shotclock.  i don't see the horns coming back in this one.  The ags are playing great, getting the calls, and catching the breaks as well.  Horns down 51-36.

now the ags outplaying the horns, up 10.

horns outplaying the ags in the 2nd half, but the ags are draining 3s.  still an 8-point game at the 16 minute mark.

horns playing much better, but have been a bit unlucky on a couple of loose balls.  they've cut the lead to 8, but have had two steals that ended up bouncing back to the ags leading to 4 points.

big 3 from james to stop the bleeding a bit... 24-14, Ags lead.

[quote name="ST413" post="767862" timestamp="1267298840"] No offense to the HJ seniors but going into next season I have expectations of a better team than I didf before this year. A lot of talent returning and moving up. I know all the seniors will be missed espwecially Turner and Ricossa. The question I have for Hawk fans is who will be the speedy sparkplug such as Turner, Burrel, Bernard or Donahoe. I don't see Prudhomme as that fast. [/quote] i'm going to disagree, simply because of the fact that i don't know that they'll have that sparkplug you mentioned.  but, you never know who's going to step up from year to year.

Horns down 24-11.

[quote name="PhatMack19" post="767864" timestamp="1267298893"] Ags look good so far.  [/quote] yup, and after a good defensive start, the horns are starting to look lethargic.

Ags on a big 11-2 run, lead 18-9

Ags are leading this shootout 7-4 at the 2nd TV timeout.  Horns ball, 11:45 left in the first half :)

still 4-4, 13 left.  this is nuts!

4-4 at the 15 minute mark.  reminiscent of the first quarter of the nederland game last night.

[/quote]He doesn't start.  Blake Venable (senior), starts at Forward.  Shawn comes in off the bench. The other guys are right.  He's number 10, tall lanky 6'2" and has been, shall we say, interesting to watch.  You can tell the kid is going to be very good!  He does make a few sophomore mistakes, but he's improved as the year has progressed.  He can be a beast on the press when he's up front with Jacoby (otherwise known as "Jacolby").  Quick hands. With Shawn, Gus, Sutherland, and Will Anderson returning next year, it looks like HJ will have another of their infamous "rebulding" years!!!  ;) [/quote] plus some serious size down low to replace ricossa with pershon and that beast off of the freshman team!

i want in on the halftime show.

3 minutes in, still only 2-2

if they quit consistently losing to other losers, they'd climb up the rankings.  hopefully they'll get it straightened out next year.

sweet!

yup, i believe he usually comes off the bench.

how about HJ 21-26 from the freethrow line when it mattered most!!!  that's great for any team, especially one who's had some games shooting below 40% from the stripe.  if they'd had one of their 10-26 nights, they probably would've lost this game!

nice win.  keep it up!

keep it going!
