Texas A&M’s Fast Rise Under McMillan

Texas A&M’s basketball program is exploding under first-year coach Bucky McMillan, who led them to the NCAA Tournament in just his second season — a stunning turnaround for a last-minute hire. His high-octane, press-heavy system thrives on speed and three-point shooting, wearing down opponents and turning wins into wins. Even without a key player, the Aggies surged to 22 wins and 11 in the SEC, powered by veterans like Rashaun Agee and breakout stars Pop Issacs and Rylan Griffen. Now, with most of the roster gone, McMillan’s rebuild is already in motion — and the biggest move? Signing PJ Haggerty, a 24-point-per-game scorer from Kansas State, who’s ranked among the nation’s top returning players. With five key transfers, including Haggerty, Texas A&M’s offense is primed to soar again — and this time, they’re not just making noise, they’re setting the tone.
