Texas A&M basketball will once against be one of the top teams in the SEC this upcoming season. The Aggies return a good chunk for its scoring in Henry Coleman, Wade Taylor, Julous Marble, Andre Gordon and Tyrese Radford. There’s no reason for the Aggies to not be a top 3 unit in the conference this season.
College basketball is right around the corner, folks.
