No chest-thumping. No crotch-grabbing. No kiss-blowing. <br /><br />In other words, he's a good kid. <br /><br />As a player, he goes hard all the time. He doesn't turn the ball over and make silly decisions. He makes the smart pass, not the behind-the-back one. And he rebounds very well, unlike what's-his-name. <br /><br />Utah State got out-worked tonight, but Stew Morrill won't allow that again. They went ice-cold in the 2nd half and missed open shots. They're a young group, but don't forget: Morrill has the fourth best winning percentage over the 14-year-period he's been with USU. <br /><br />I hope the Aggies' kids continued success. They shouldn't be hounded because their coach is hard to support.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3319260418553490797.post-3094552563752887142012-01-12T17:16:11.612-07:002012-01-12T17:16:11.612-07:00"The advantage of playing at home is only as ..."The advantage of playing at home is only as strong as your crowd," Menzies said. "We do need to get the support in here because there is no use of playing at home if you're playing in an empty gym. If we get that, I think that's a big part of giving us potential success."<br /><br />Marvin, I can think of one advantage of playing at home in this situation---you don't have to contend with such a large, hostile opponent's home crowd.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3319260418553490797.post-52761829188343099872012-01-12T17:08:39.162-07:002012-01-12T17:08:39.162-07:00Stew Morrill: "(Rahman) is so big and they th...Stew Morrill: "(Rahman) is so big and they throw it to him a lot"<br /><br />Me: But he has trouble catching the ball and keeping from turning it over.<br /><br />In the situation when he is able to hang on to the ball, I would like to see him go up and slam some dunks---like a big center should be able to do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3319260418553490797.post-20478398562469084622012-01-12T13:05:52.976-07:002012-01-12T13:05:52.976-07:00Anon 8:55 am,

This will enlarge everything for you.<br /><br />----<br /><br />General comment: This will be a good test for the Aggies. So far, with the exception of the one win against the Lobos, the Aggies have only beaten weaker teams. Utah State is the team that more closely approximates the Aggies in skill level.<br /><br />It should be an interesting game.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3319260418553490797.post-48867401818183485082012-01-12T08:55:39.540-07:002012-01-12T08:55:39.540-07:00Can you change the font so it's readable witho...Can you change the font so it's readable without squinting ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
