On Monday, the Texas A&M men's basketball team will hit the floor together for the first time in the season as the young Aggies face Texas A&M-Kingsville at p.m. inside Reed Arena.

Head coach Buzz Williams enters his third season with the A&M program and has brought a new group of young players to College Station.

Ten newcomers join the Aggies including seven transfers and three freshmen straight out of high school. Two starters, in fifth-year senior Quenton Jackson and junior Andre Gordon, return to an A&M team where Jackson was second on the team in scoring at points per game, and Gordon was the only Aggies to start all 18 games in a COVID-shortened campaign last season.

A&M-Kingsville is led by coach Johnny Estelle who enters his eighth season with the Javelinas and is coming off a season. 

Their winning percentage was the best single-season mark in program history, and the Javelinas return five players who averaged at least points per game during that run. Creighton Avery, Jordan Wilson, Will Chayer, Tre Flowers, and Sammy Brooks all return to Estelle's squad for

After Monday night's exhibition, the Aggies will kick off the regular season on Nov. 10 against North Florida at Reed Arena beginning a homestand against Abilene Christian, Texas A&M-Corpus Christi, and Houston Baptist before heading to the Maui Invitational on Nov. 22 in a tournament that also includes Wisconsin, Butler, and Houston.

Angelo State enters the matchup at on the season. However, the Belles turned in their two best offensive performances of the year this past weekend against Harding and Arkansas Tech.

Despite the rough start, Angelo State has a handful of talented players who can be a threat toward TAMIU. The Belles are led by Payton Brown, who is averaging 11 points. Tayjanna McGhee-Pleasant and Blakely Gerber round out Angelo State’s top-3 scorers at 10 and points per matchup, respectively.

The Dustdevils swept their two matchups against the Belles last year.

Like Angelo State, UTPB has struggled as well to begin the year as it sits at before it takes on Texas A&M-Kingsville on Thursday before heading to Laredo for this weekend’s contest.

The Falcons have been outscored to points per game this season. Yet, they do have some players who can score in streaks in Alexus Wykoff, Avalon Munoz and Rory Carter.

Look for TAMIU to continue to lean on newcomers Rai Brown and Emily Swiercz, who are the team’s top-two scorers at and points per game, respectively, this season. In fact, Swiercz enters this week’s matchups after being the Lone Star Conference’s offensive player of the week after she scored a combined 36 points, including 8 of 15 from beyond the arc, in TAMIU’s win over Saint Martin’s and Western Oregon last week.

While those two should lead the Dustdevils once again, don’t be surprised if Eva Langton, Clara Fernandez and Vanessa Herrera provide solid contributions here and there as well.

He was a student there in , , and part of , but he did not graduate.

Members with the Texas A&I Alumni Association are expressing their condolences to the family of a man who was killed after an incident with Minneapolis police officers.

George Floyd died in police custody Monday night after a Minneapolis police officer knelt on his neck for several minutes as the year-old gasped for breath with his face against the pavement.

A bystander recorded a video of the officer pressing his knee on Floyd's neck, which was quickly circulated on social media. The incident has caused backlash and protests from the Minneapolis community.

The Texas A&I Alumni Association posted on their Facebook page that George Floyd was a former student at Texas A&I University.

The group ended their message by stating, "Condolences to all his friends and family during this very difficult time."

That led to his return to Houston, where he was a member of the popular rap group Screwed Up Click, according to the Houston Chronicle.

He moved to Minneapolis in after struggling to find work in his hometown.

LSU’s class took another hit on Sunday when four-star running back TreVonte' Citizen dropped his commitment and put his recruitment back on the open market. 

Since Ed Orgeron took over as interim headman after LSU fired Les Miles four games into the season, the Tigers have had 60 prospects drop their commitments on the recruiting trail.

The class suffered the most attrition with 15 decommitments. It also tied the class for LSU’s second highest-ranked crop during Orgeron’s tenure at No. 4, second to only the class that finished second in America.

Geaux looks back at those former Tiger pledges and brings you up to speed on where they ended up.

Texas A&M University-Kingsville and a Mexican American former professor are attempting to resolve the professor’s discrimination lawsuit against the school, according to his attorney.

Armando Ib&#;&#;ez was the university’s director of the Radio-Television-Film program until he was terminated this year after being denied a promotion and tenure. He is the second Mexican American faculty member to sue the school for alleged discrimination this year.

Ib&#;&#;ez filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas on Oct. His attorney is John Schulman, based in Dallas. 

More: When it comes to faculty diversity, how does Texas A&M University-Kingsville measure up?

Schulman told the Caller-Times the lawsuit is in mediation. In response to the Caller-Times’ questions about the lawsuit, university spokeswoman Adriana Garza-Flores said she could not comment on litigation.

“I think the parties are to be credited, Professor Ib&#;&#;ez and the university, for making an unusual effort to resolve the case early,” Schulman said. “It has not been successful so far, but I think both sides should get some credit for trying to do it.

“We think that the lawsuit is very detailed, and it presents some compelling evidence that there’s a systemic problem involving Hispanics at Texas A&M-Kingsville that has been acknowledged at the very highest ranks of the administration. We think Professor Ib&#;&#;ez was a victim of that systemic pattern.”

Ib&#;&#;ez’s lawsuit makes allegations that he reported in an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission complaint, which he previously shared with the Caller-Times.

Schulman said the EEOC investigation did not show results against or in favor of the university because there was not enough evidence. The agency gave Ib&#;&#;ez a right-to-sue notice.

“It would be a lot easier for me to just walk away … but I think it’s a terrible injustice being done to students and to this institution,” Ib&#;&#;ez told the Caller-Times.

What are the allegations?

Ib&#;&#;ez said in his complaint that he was terminated “as a result of personal bias as well as systemic bias against Mexican American faculty and in favor of non-Mexican Americans.”

He alleged that university president Mark Hussey overruled the findings of an appeal committee that had determined Ib&#;&#;ez earned tenure and a promotion based on his “impressive” scholarly body of work.

Ib&#;&#;ez said that inthe university promoted 12 professors who were not Mexican American, and he was the only professor in that cycle who was not promoted.

The same year, tenure appeal committees in the College of Arts texas a&m kingsville Sciences ruled in favor of three white professors earning tenure. Hussey upheld two of those decisions, Ib&#;&#;ez said.

More: Nueces County unveils proposed redistricting maps: How much will change?

Asked about that claim in June, before Ib&#;&#;ez filed a lawsuit, Garza-Flores said an appeal committee vote is only one piece of information the president considers to make a decision. Votes regarding tenure are also taken at the department level, by the department chair, at the college level, by the college dean and by the provost.

“In those cases where tenure was granted, there were two to four times as many 'yes' votes as 'no' votes,” Garza-Flores wrote in an email. “In the case of Mr. Ibanez, there were substantially more 'no' votes than 'yes' votes.”

How diverse is the faculty?

Ib&#;&#;ez’s complaint also addresses a lack of diversity among faculty. The university is federally recognized as a Hispanic-serving institution because its student population is at least 25% Hispanic.

While Hispanic people at TAMUK made up more than texas a&m kingsville of the student body in the last three years, Hispanic faculty members made up less than a quarter of all faculty members, according to data obtained by the Caller-Times earlier this year.

Ib&#;&#;ez noted in his complaint that university provost Lou Reinisch acknowledged, in an August email to the Hispanic Faculty Council, that the “faculty profile should reflect our student profile” and that qualified Hispanic candidates for faculty and administrative roles are often overlooked.

Reinisch wrote that the university needed to “solve these problems,” and he believed Hussey agreed.

In April, a professor named Norma Guzm&#;n filed a lawsuit against the university claiming that various university texas a&m kingsville harassed and discriminated against her as a Mexican American woman, and that she was passed over for a promotion in favor of someone less qualified.

A jury trial for Guzm&#;n’s case is set for May 23,according to texas a&m kingsville records.

LSU’s class took another hit on Sunday when four-star running back TreVonte' Citizen dropped his commitment and put his recruitment back on the open market. 

Since Ed Orgeron took over as interim headman after LSU fired Les Miles four games into the season, the Tigers have had 60 prospects drop their commitments on the recruiting trail.

The class suffered the most attrition with 15 decommitments. It also tied the class for LSU’s second highest-ranked crop during Orgeron’s tenure at No. 4, second to only the class that finished second in America.

Geaux looks back at those former Tiger pledges and brings you up to speed on where they ended up.

Texas A&M University-Kingsville and a Mexican American former professor are attempting to resolve the professor’s discrimination lawsuit against the school, according to his attorney.

Armando Ib&#;&#;ez was the university’s director of the Radio-Television-Film program until he was terminated this year after being denied a promotion and tenure. He is the second Mexican American faculty member to sue the school for alleged discrimination this year.

Ib&#;&#;ez filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas on Oct. His attorney is John Schulman, based in Dallas.

Schulman told the Caller-Times the lawsuit is in mediation. In response to the Caller-Times’ questions about the lawsuit, university spokeswoman Adriana Garza-Flores said she could not comment on litigation.

“I think the parties are to be credited, Professor Ib&#;&#;ez and the university, for making an unusual effort to resolve the case early,” Schulman said. “It has not been successful so far, but I think both sides should get some credit for trying to do it.

“We think that the lawsuit is very detailed, and it presents some compelling evidence that there’s a systemic problem involving Hispanics at Texas A&M-Kingsville that has been acknowledged at the very highest ranks of the administration. We think Professor Ib&#;&#;ez was a victim of that systemic pattern.”

Ib&#;&#;ez’s lawsuit makes allegations that he reported in an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission complaint, which he previously shared with the Caller-Times.

Schulman said the EEOC investigation did not show results against or in favor of the university because there was not enough evidence. The agency gave Ib&#;&#;ez a right-to-sue notice.

“It would be a lot easier for me to just walk away … but I think it’s a terrible injustice being done to students and to this institution,” Ib&#;&#;ez told the Caller-Times.

What are the allegations?

Ib&#;&#;ez said in his complaint that he was terminated “as a result of personal bias as well as systemic bias against Mexican American faculty and in favor of non-Mexican Americans.”

He alleged that university president Mark Hussey overruled the findings of an appeal committee that had determined Ib&#;&#;ez earned tenure and a promotion based on his “impressive” scholarly body of work.

Ib&#;&#;ez said that in , the university promoted 12 professors who were not Mexican American, and he was the only professor in that cycle who was not promoted.

The same year, tenure appeal committees in the College of Arts and Sciences ruled in favor of three white professors earning tenure. Hussey upheld two of those decisions, Ib&#;&#;ez said.

Asked about that claim in June, before Ib&#;&#;ez filed a lawsuit, Garza-Flores said an appeal committee vote is only one piece of information the president considers to make a decision. Votes regarding tenure are also taken at the department level, by the department chair, at the college level, by the college dean and by the provost.

“In those cases where tenure was granted, there were two to four times as many 'yes' votes as 'no' votes,” Garza-Flores wrote in an email. “In the case of Mr. Ibanez, there were substantially more 'no' votes than 'yes' votes.”

How diverse is the faculty?

Ib&#;&#;ez’s complaint also addresses a lack of diversity among faculty. The university is federally recognized as a Hispanic-serving institution because its student population is at least 25% Hispanic.

While Hispanic people at TAMUK made up more than two-thirds of the student body in the last three years, Hispanic faculty members made up less than a quarter of all faculty members, according to data obtained by the Caller-Times earlier this year.

Ib&#;&#;ez noted in his complaint that university provost Lou Reinisch acknowledged, in an August email to the Hispanic Faculty Council, that the “faculty profile should reflect our student profile” and that qualified Hispanic candidates for faculty and administrative roles are often overlooked.

Reinisch wrote that the university needed to “solve these problems,” and he believed Hussey agreed.

In April, a professor named Norma Guzm&#;n filed a lawsuit against the university claiming that various university officials harassed and discriminated against her as a Mexican American woman, and that she was passed over for a promotion in favor of someone less qualified.

A jury trial for Guzm&#;n’s case is set for May 23, , according to public records.

The Texas A&M basketball program was never bad, but Aggie football was always the top priority in College Station. After a losing basketball season in Buzz Williams&#; second year, national media virtually wrote off Texas A&M.

I&#;ll be the first to admit it — after a close call against Texas A&M-Kingsville in a preseason exhibition game, I believed this team to be even worse than last year, which is a tough feat. Seven games later and the narrative has done a complete

Texas A&M basketball G Quenton Jackson is having a breakout season, winning SEC Player of the Week

The storyline surrounding this team in the offseason had nothing to do with its existing players — quite the opposite is true. The Aggies brought in seven transfer players after losing eight to the portal following a disappointing year in

Still, a player who was already on the roster is stepping up as this team&#;s leader. That player is Quenton Jackson.

Jackson has been in College Station for two years and has seen gradual improvement. The Aggie guard finished with points per game in his freshman season but had a long way to go shooting the ball. Jackson knocked down just % of his field goals and % of his three-pointers.

The next season, he took that step forward, converting on % of his shots and shooting well over 40% from beyond the arch. He was a very rare piece of consistent offense on a team that struggled to put the ball in the bucket.

In , he&#;s taken yet another step forward, cementing himself as an early candidate for SEC Player of the Year. Jackson is averaging a career-high 13 points per game, knocking down % of his three-pointers. He has cut down on turnovers, averaging less than last season, while generating a new career-high with steals per game.

These numbers benefitted from a strong week from Jackson, where the Aggie guard averaged 16 points per game and a plethora of steals. This was good enough to earn him SEC Player of the Week honors.

Don&#;t look now, but the Aggie junior is turning into a certified college basketball star.
