Well he's back to what his strength is - he can be an outstanding recruiter, focus a little on defense and rebounding and also be the players coach on the staff. I know next to nothing about their head coach but I'm guessing he's a tad on the hot seat and thus why hiring Stans make sense.
Interesting to see how this plays out.

Why would I want to do that. I wouldn't care to visit with Ron Polk, but I would like to see my friend Rick Stansbury at the Hump one more time..

Well I hope you get your wish and we have a&m home and home again.

If Billy Kennedy gets fired, Stansbury would most likely become interim coach. He could probably parlay that into the A&M job back door style or some other job. Just throwing ideas out there. Good move for A&M and good move for Stansbury.

So in other words, he could backstab his way into a HC job aGAIN?
It's the roller coaster of hope that this program keeps us on that makes it hell being a State fan. - CadaverDawg, 10/15/22

Fill in the details. I have no idea of the circumstances that made Stans our coach many years ago. I was out of state at the time.

Lol. I think it could very well happen. Kennedy has health issues and he is also on the hot seat. You wonder if there was some type of agreement there that enticed him to go to College Station . Surely it wasn't "well Kennedy might get fired this season so you might be looking for another job next year. "

Interesting move, but probably a good one. If he wants to be a head coach again, this may be his best route to go as far as getting his name back out there.

Wait..... you mean Stansbury made Richard Williams start banging cheerleaders? How did he pull that off? Man can work miracles.

Geezer
amazing how damn stupid some of our fans are, if indeed they are our fans in reality. Very smart move by both parties and look for him to get a top player for the Aggies in the next few weeks.

He was a great assistant coach here, as a recruiter, with player relations and with Xs and Os. He started out pretty good as a head coach, but lost control at the end. It was sad. I hope this gets him back in the game and gives him another shot at a head coaching job. However, this is a better shot than Richard Williams ever got and his transgressions, while real, were smaller than a lot of people still in the game.

A top player? What top players haven't signed by now? .............
Eta, I think rick is a good recruiter and it's a good move on their part. And I am assuming u mean top player in the class of 14. If I jumped the gun then sorry. But if it is the class of 14 u speak of- well it won't be a top guy it will be leftovers.

This is hilarious coming from the guy who refuses to support our current coach because his feelings are hurt that his buddy was forced out.

Devonta Pollard has been tied to Stansbury at the hip for quite awhile now. That's who he's talking about.
Although it's pretty laughable to call him a "top player" at this point...

I hope Pollard does find a place and get a chance to work toward success. Way too many elite high school athletes are doing time instead of playing pro ball. If your son's coach doesn't care about character, get him away from that dumb son of a bitch.
