Thank heavens he came back and for his blue collar style of play!!<BR/><BR/>Gibson is the elder statesmen of the team but his shot selection is like a true freshman.<BR/><BR/>JY tends to dissapear for long periods and when he does come back he's out of flow and in-effective.<BR/><BR/>If JGib and JY would play to their potential on a consistent basis and we could get the team to play like the "Big Ticket," we could do some serious damage come tournament time.<BR/><BR/>Until that happens, the Aggies will be another .500% team.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835899929137685677.post-14822662280347322182009-01-16T14:54:00.000-08:002009-01-16T14:54:00.000-08:00I agree with your assessment of McKines.

I am disappointed with this team and I am disappointed with JY and JGib: they are supposed to be stars. Yeah, JY is top 3 in scoring in the WAC, but seems to disappear during crucial times.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835899929137685677.post-1191398083397175582009-01-16T14:34:00.000-08:002009-01-16T14:34:00.000-08:00I totally agree.
