As much crap as BA published about the Ags this past season, its good to see some good publicity from them.
Texas A&M
The Aggies have fallen to Rice in super-regionals each of the last two years, but they should have enough pitching in 2009 to break through to Omaha. Freshman All-Americans Barret Loux and Brooks Raley could be joined in a star-studded weekend rotation by righthander Alex Wilson, who sat out last season with Tommy John surgery but showed big-time power stuff before transferring from Winthrop. Wilson was a 10th-round pick of the Cubs as a redshirt sophomore and his return would be a huge boon for the Aggies. Clayton Ehlert, Travis Starling, Shane Minks and Scott Migl further bolster a staff that should be one of the nation's deepest. Much will depend upon whether Wilson, righthander Kyle Thebeau (ninth) and first baseman Luke Anders (16th) sign pro contracts, but it's entirely possible that all three could return. Anders, in particular, would provide a boost to a lineup that will rely heavily upon Kyle Colligan, Brodie Greene and Kevin Gonzalez.
