Barone anxious for season to stat
By Michael Plumer
Tm Battalion
Tony Barone is entering his third season as the
Texas A&M head basketball coach and Southwest
Conference coaches have pre
dicted it will be the charm.
In a poll of SWC coaches, the
Aggies were picked to finish
second behind the University of
Texas.
Barone said the predictions
prove only one point.
"I am not a big fan of the
polls and 1 don't put any stock
in them, but it gives us a chance
to recognize what others think
Barone
of us," Barone said. "But it
shows coaches know even less than sportswriters."
All kidding aside, Barone said he expects this
team to be the best of his tenure, by far.
Senior point guard David Edwards and junior
forward Damon Johnson, the team's leading scorer
and rebounder, return to give the Aggies court
leadership.
But Barone said he was most excited abouts; ; Wednesday,
ing a few new Aggies on the hardwood. Fresh,
recruits Chris Pulliams, Jimmy Smith andAntM
Ikirks and junior college transfers Joe Wilbert;:
Roy Wills will provide a luxury Barone has '
previously enjoyed, depth.
"We have added athleticism," Baronesai:
"The kids are fine athletes, but the mostimpona-
thing they have added is competition.
"They are unselfish and willing to play defer.;
and run the court."
The past two seasons Barone has had tod?;
with scholarship limitations due to punishment-
the NCAA for violations occurred underfonr?
coach Kermit Davis.
But now the restrictions are behind hinuit
Barone said he is ready to take advantageofii;
situation.
'The last two years we have been like a

"V
smart-aleck in that we slapped you and ranawav,'
Barone said.
"1 would like to be the bully and wewillsetii
we have the ability level."
The first chance Barone gets to view hisnt-
charges will he at 8:00 a.m. Saturday whenfe
gies open practice.
McElroy
Continued from Page 7
"It gets me mad," Toledo said
with a smile. "I've never seen
anything like it. We we're all teas
ing him, telling him to let the oth
er guys play. But seriously, it was
a great position to be in."
McElroy is currently the na
tion's leading kickoff returner, av
eraging 35.5 yards per return, but
said that this honor won't keep
him from continuing to work hard
at his job.
"Anytime you're at the top,
you're going to want to work hard
to stay up there," McElroy said.
"But I think that it's definitely a
credit to our kickoff team as well."
McElroy, with his 93- and 88-
yard returns for touchdowns
against the Owls, has also earned
a unique honor. No player in
A&M history has ever returned
two kickoffs for scores in a single
season, much less in a single quar
ter. McElroy is now the charter
member of the club.
Due to his efforts, the Beau
mont Central product has joined
the company of a Rocket. Former
Notre Dame All-America wide re
ceiver Raghib Ismail had been the
only freshman to ever accomplish
the feat.
McElroy said that he was not
shocked he had an opportunity to
showcase his kick-returning abili
ty-
"I was surprised to score twice,
but we have the personnel to do
it," McElroy said. "We have the
ability to make the blocks and get
the ball down the field."
However, McElroy has not
used all of his talents on kickoff
returns. This season he has accu
mulated 10 touchdowns, which
ties him with fellow running back
Rodney Thomas.
Toledo said that McElroy is an
explosive tailback.
"When he touches the ball, he
makes thing happen," Toledo
said. "He is an elusive runner, he
makes people miss and he is de
ceptively fast.
"He doesn't look like he's
fast...until he turns on the jets."
Toledo also said that McElroy
has accepted his real role on of
fense, playing third string tailback
behind Thomas and Greg Hill.
"We've got two great tailbacks
in front of him, so it is hard to get
him in there some of thefej
Toledo said. "Somehow,wetnl
get him in there to takeadvanil
of his ability.
But Toledo said therehj
been no complaints from Me
about his place on the team.
"Like any great player,!
wants to play more andlrespjl
him for that," Toledo said.'if

"We are trying to find wa.
