Hahaha...too true and too funny!

That's great news! I just saw that the Aggies swept the 3 game series with Northern Colorado winning today 12-0. Wow...what a fast start!

Great analysis. I always so impressed with the amount on knowledge you and ProAggieGuy have when it comes to Aggie baseball. I wonder if we'll ever get lights for the Aggie field? That would make for some very nice evening games and would probably increase attendance.

It would be exciting to see the Aggies become one of the better baseball programs in the Big West. The women's softball team is off to a good start too so far. It's great to see these sports getting better each year.

It was great to hear Williams say all those great things about the culture of Aggie athletics and how the players have bought into it. He credited tonight's win to the culture that Les has created and, like you noted, he said he sees that with Hawkins also. I remember on Wednesday when Marsh made a comment about how smart the players are and Williams said, "Yep, typical Aggie athletes."

That's a great start for the Aggies!

This was a gritty, gutsy win by the Aggies. We could have packed it in after the way the first half went and TJ getting injured. Les said that it was a emotional locker room at halftime and the team vowed to win to win the game for him.

TJ was on the bench with a full leg brace in the second half. I'm sure they'll get him an MRI tomorrow and then we'll know what the deal is. I'm hoping this isn't a career ending injury. It looked like a Long Beach player fell into his the of TJ's left leg but it was hard to tell because four players hit the deck hard. TJ gets knocked around so much and plays so hard that you just expect him to pop back up but not this time. I'm hoping for the best for him. He's a warrior.

Bob Williams should be beside Scott Marsh for every Aggie game. He's great to listen to. He said this was the gutsiest win by the Ags he's seen this year of the games he's been at.

Thanks very much, abridge!

A member of the Big West Boards says that Bob Williams is living in the gated community of Lake of the Pines north of Auburn. That's a pretty long 63 mile, one and a half hour drive to Davis in the best of weather.

Here is a link to some nice photos from the game by Adam Abridge:

You can see Chima Moneke sitting on the baseline near the Aggie bench in photos 7-9. Chima played in 11 games with Denain ASC Voltaire in France and averaged 10.3 ppg with 5.6 rebounds per game while shooting 54% as a starter. It was great seeing him back in Davis.

Nice article about Doss. He's so typical of being an Aggie...intelligent, humble and mature. He's got his values right and he's mature enough to know to simply focus on being genuine, working hard to improve and let the chips fall where they may instead of stressing out with what you can't control. He's a great ambassador for the Aggies and the university. All the best to him.

Ags win their 15th game of their last 18 by beating the Highlanders 72-59. Morgan Bertsch with 30 points.

Oops...I forgot about his game. Ags up 55-46. Probably won't see the finish...Valentine's Day dinner...

Ham was intensity personified!

They need to get on the marketing right now...notify the sororities and fraternities and swamp the dorms with information. Pump this one up in the community too. Every one of the previous ESPN games in the Pavilion has been an awesome collegiate atmosphere.

Spot on. Les has made me a believer in the defense first and foremost strategy. Defense can keep you in the game even when the offense is struggling. Our defense is really good right now and our offense is getting better with each game. Good shooting is often as much mental as it is physical talent. Good shooters can get in a mental rut and it affects their stroke when the shots don't drop. When shooters get in a groove their shots are more natural and fluid and their confidence grows. Mooney and Gonzalez are great examples of that right now.

Les comments on the game:

"Everyone is playing really hard on the defensive end of the floor and bought in. We are receiving contributions from a lot of different places and this team is playing hard," said head coach Jim Les. "And they are playing together.

"Holding three teams in a row under 60 points in our league, which has some really good offensive players, is a unique feat."

Haha...give it couple of months....

Here's another vote for Bob Williams as the color commentator for the Aggie radio broadcast. Scott Marsh does a nice job of the play-by-play call but Williams really adds in-depth insight into the finer points of the game. The back and forth discussion by Les and Williams in the post-game was outstanding and we've never had that kind of knowledgeable, basketball analysis before. It was really interesting.

Bob was talking about how well the Aggie defense had played and noted that there were only a couple of times were they lost focus and broke down. He noted that, at one point, Les called timeout and "got their attention" and they got right back on track. He also said that there was a point in the game where CSUN knocked down a few 3's to keep within striking distance and said that happened because the Ags were getting the wrong matchup at the time.

Williams has a sense of humor also. At one point he was joking with Les about how intense Les is during the game and said it would be something to see Les and Russ Turner (Irvine's coach) going at it in the cage together (referring to an MMA fight ring). Pretty funny stuff...
