To be completely fair to the Aggies, it is common practice for teams to give out regular season conference championship rings. My cousin has an SEC West championship ring from Arkansas when they won in 2006.

My biggest concern with wr recruiting this cycle is Texas missing out on other wr recruits that they wouldn’t if Easton wasn’t committed than Easton flipping to LSU late in the cycle. -

Gerry Ain't no combo guard talk. Best point guard ever ever because he passed better than anyone ever. -

Nothing for few hours. AI search. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is generally regarded as the greatest center in NBA history due to his unmatched longevity, six championships, six MVPs, and unstoppable skyhook shot. Magic Johnson is widely considered the greatest point guard of all time due to his unique 6'9" size,5 championships, 3 MVPs, and unmatched playmaking in the "Showtime" Lakers era - Today

I'll add that this year in college basketball is like the Celtics of the 1980s. Great size and skill in the front court is winning out. Even so, that didn't ultimately beat the combo of Magic and Kareem and the overall athleticism of the Lakers in the 1980s. Goobers who think "it's different now" need to study up some. It's a cycle with limits. -

Winter's Triangle went back to the 1960s. Triangle worked for Phil because Pippen could play point on offense and Shaq and Kobe couldn't be defended one-on-one. Of course MJ couldn't either. You don't need a particular system; you need players. I'm sure Gerry would agree. That said, there are skills that the game itself rewards. Of course, this can be manipulated by rules. There's a limit to the amount of manipulation you can implement without doing damage to the game. The NBA crossed that line after the Lakers destroyed everyone in 2001. The NBA owners decided they didn't like the idea of 22 year old Kobe and Shaq dominating the league one-one-one. So they changed the rules. It took a while, but now we're seeing they screwed up. College basketball was at the mercy of the NBA until they started paying players. That's not the case now. We now have real basketball in college. That why interest in college is increasing and interest in the NBA is decreasing. PG is not a fungible position. A great PG is not a necessity if you have another great perimeter and post player, but having a great PG is better than having a combo guard and "stretch" 4. History proves this. -

The transition from truly pure point guard to the kind of combo guard Gerry has described began in earnest with the advent of the Triangle offense Phil Jackson/Tex Winter pioneered in the Chicago Bulls/Michael Jordan era. -
