Tracy Schultz of SI.com writes about Texas A&M coach Gary Blair and the Aggies turnaround. Blair did the same thing at Stephen F. Austin and Arkansas, but Schultz says his work at A&M is even more impressive because he did not have a previous winning tradition to revitalize.

At 8-3 in the Big XII, the Aggies are currently a game ahead of defending national champion Baylor. The two teams meet tomorrow night in College Station and A&M visits conference leader Oklahoma on Saturday. A win against either team would help solidify A&M as a team on the rise.

Win or lose on Wednesday, the future is bright for the Aggies. They start two freshman and three sophomores and have a strong recruiting class coming in next year.
