This Sunday will be the last home
game for four Texas A&M seniors.
It might just be the last hurrah for
basketball coach John Thornton as
well.
A&M closes the regular season
Sunday at G. Rollie White Coliseum
against Texas Tech. The Aggies are
coming off their fourth consecutive
home loss Wednesday to Houston,
100-81. The Red Raiders still are
looking to pick up their first South
west Conference win.
Tipoff is scheduled for 2:04 p.m.

Crow said that A&M will conduct
a national search after the season for
a new head coach. Crow already has
contacted the University of Idaho
and asked permission to speak to the
Kermit Davis. Idaho athletic director
Gary Hunter has given A&M per
mission to talk to Davis at the end of
the season.
Other names thrown around as
possible candidates include former
Kentucky coach Eddie Sutton and
University of Oklahoma’s Billy
Tubbs. Crow has said Thornton also
will be considered as a possible can
didate.
If Sunday is Thornton’s last home
game as the Aggies’ head coach, he
said he can look back at his nine
years at A&M with pleasure.
“I think that it could be an emo
tional thing because of the past ex
periences I’ve had here,” Thornton
said. “But it’s also kind of neat in a

glad it is at home.
“I think the closer it gets, the
more it’ll get to me. At tipoff it will
probably really hit me.”
Senior forwards Daryl Duncan,
David Rhea and Ray Little, along
with senior guard Tony Milton all
end their regular-season careers at
A&M.
“I feel like I’ve got some common
feelings with the seniors,” Thornton
said. “We’ve been through a lot toge
ther.”
Milton!, who broke the school’s re
cord for single season assists against
Houston, said leaving A&M will be
hard for him to face.
“It’s going to be disappointing, be
cause it’ll be the end of my college
career,” Milton said. “I just love
playing here.’
And the Aggies will miss Milton.
In his last two years at A&M, Mil-
ton has racked up some impressive
statistics. Starting in all 29 games this
year, Milton has averaged 20.4
points per game. He is 47.7 percent
accurate from the field and shoots
38 percent from three-point range.
Probably his most impressive statis
tic, though, is his record-breaking
199 assists.
In addition to filling Milton’s
shoes, A&M will be faced with re
placing six-foot-nine-inch forward
Darren Rhea.
“I think Rhea made up his mind
last summer to make his senior year
his best year ever,” Thornton said.
“He has just played super for us. He
has been one of the most consistent
players, other than Tony, for us all
year long.”
