Buzz Williams ready to bring SEC title to Aggie basketball: ‘Let’s win it this time’
Buzz Williams spoke about the upcoming 2023 basketball season on Saturday. He didn’t shy away from his team’s goals for the season.
Since joining the SEC in 2012, Texas A&M does not have a SEC Tournament title in men’s basketball. The Aggies were regular season champs in 2016, however.
After reaching the SEC Championship in back-to-back seasons, Williams has his sights set on an SEC Tournament title.
“15-3 is hard to be better than. 0-1 in the NCAA Tournament, you can be better than that,” said Williams. “Getting to the SEC Championship Game two years in a row, let’s get there again, but let’s win it this time.”

Texas A&M came up short against Alabama in the SEC Tournament final last season. The Aggies lost to the Crimson Tide 82-63.
Williams led his team to an appearance in the NCAA Tournament against Penn State. Texas A&M lost to the Nittany Lions in the first round by a score of 76-59.
It would be a special feat if Williams can reach the SEC Tournament final in three-straight seasons. It would be even better if he could win it.
The 2023 campaign for Texas A&M starts on Nov. 7 against Texas A&M-Commerce.
Can the Aggies finally bring home an SEC title under Williams in 2023?
