The Aggies - Houston Texans Message Board & Forum

What a huge improvement the Aggies are showing on a weekly basis. I remember after the first game against Utah (?) there were some glum predictions about just how well they were going to do this year.

It appears that the team has finally responded and is playing some really good football now.

I'm not an Aggie but just thought I'd compliment them on a huge win against a very good Oklahoma State team.

Ya, they greatly improved. I went to the A&M vs. K-State game and watching them improve right infornt of me was great. They have really stepped up and a couple that are showing up are Reggie McNeal, T-Murph, Byron Jones and Jackson Apple. #16 in BCS and improving. At worst they are a 7-4 team but they could be a 9-2 team.

Not an Aggie either, but enjoy watching them. I'll probably get roasted for this, but I think McNeal is better and has more potential than vince young.

I'm a big Texas fan and I agree with you. McNeal has really matured and Coach Fran seems to have really helped his development, can't say that for Vince or his coaches.

I heard a caller on 610 a few days ago say that Vince actually was a better passer in high school and his college coaching has actually hindered him.

I'm beginning to think that is true.

The main thing that has helped the Aggies this season is the departure of Dustin Long. Most Aggie fans would agree that Long is a very good QB (as he continues to prove at Sam Houston) But last season, he and Reggie McNeil alternated too often in my opinion.

This disrupts team chemistry and prevents the other 10 guys on offense of establishing a rhythm, especially since Long and McNeil are such different style of players.

Young better get used to catching those passes like he did last week, because unless he has astronomical (GO ASTROS!!!) improvement over the next couple of years thats what he will be doing if he makes it to the next level.
