I subtracted a few from the attendance because on the radio broadcast you could clearly hear about 4 or 5 rabid AGGIE fans totally out of control yelling. It was so quiet in there that screaming from the stands could be clearly heard at several points in the game, noteably when Ray Kraemer was at the stripe. That was awesome! Maybe Jack knows who those folks are or if it's one of you maybe you want to step forward and take a bow.

Thats why I approved of benching Gillenwater if he deserved it. I also agree that if a player is not happy here or does not like the way things are working that they should leave. However, if coach wont talk about happened and leaves us speculating then dont cause more damage by implying that Gillenwater might leave. He talked about keeping things in house but if him and Gillenwater dont agree then let that in house too. There is no need to say that if things dont get fixed we will look at other solutions, leave that for the end of the season if you wont tell us now what the problem is.<BR/><BR/>GSAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3319260418553490797.post-39872943919666196142009-02-11T10:53:00.000-07:002009-02-11T10:53:00.000-07:00gillenwater is a MM recruit i believe. can someone...gillenwater is a MM recruit i believe. can someone tell me otherwise?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3319260418553490797.post-53302496530914550022009-02-11T10:14:00.000-07:002009-02-11T10:14:00.000-07:00GS, you always have some great opinions on Aggie b...GS, you always have some great opinions on Aggie basketball, but I think I see this one slightly differently than you. Speculatively (which is all we can do at this point), I imagine that Menzies has said or will say to Gillenwater "Look. This is how things work in my program. If you want to be part of what we're building, this is how it's going to be. If that's not what you want, then we need to help you move on." I'm hopeful that neither player leaves, simply because the program can't take the APR hit, but it may be that the cost of building the NMSU basketball program in a sustainable fashion is much greater than we imagined, and may include some more player movement this summer.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06198046629172775909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3319260418553490797.post-34126995347233042642009-02-11T10:04:00.000-07:002009-02-11T10:04:00.000-07:00Is there any ill will towards Gillenwater because ...Is there any ill will towards Gillenwater because he's not a MM recruit? 4 of the 9 recruits from that class have left and that might be 5 if Wendell had left, not including Troy G if something happens with him. This was arguably the best class NMSU has ever had, yet it wasn't his guys. I understand if Coach want's his guys, that buy into his program.

It said in your article JG that coach said that we would either move forward or move in another direction. I read that and it sounds to me that if things dont get fixed then Troy and Joyner will be let go. Im up for suspending players because they let their mouths get the best but I hope Gillenwater isnt released or something because of that. You already suspended him, done. By dragging this out its just showing the rest of the town and the recruits that Menzies cant handle when good players have a hissy fit. Its going to happen and I think that the suspension should have been enough. <BR/><BR/>GSAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
