The loss marks I*lllli straight loss for A&M and drops its record to 0-11 in the Big 12. SPORTS IN BRIEF Wright threatens to transfer if Mins dismissed COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) - Texas A&M’s leading scorer, Antoine Wright, says he would probably try to transfer to another school instead of attempting to turn pro if coach Melvin Watkins is dismissed. The Aggies forward had been averaging 14 points per game, but is in the midst of a disappointing individual and overall season. “I really don’t want to play for another coach (at A&M), to be honest with you," Wright told The San Antonio Express- News in Wednesday’s edi tions. “That would be tough. Coach Watkins has been great for me, and he’s helping me to get better.” With A&M guaranteed a los ing regular season and six games remaining before the Big 12 tournament begins on March 11, Watkins could be in the hot seat following the tourney barring a turnaround by the 7-14 Aggies. They are 0-10 in league play. Wright, last year’s Big 12 Freshman of the Year, is shoot ing only 35.7 percent from the field and averaging 13 points and 4.1 rebounds per game. “It’s just unfortunate to put that much pressure on a kid, and surely as a coaching staff we hope we didn’t contribute to that,” Watkins said Tuesday of Wright’s preseason hype. “But I know we probably did, because we had said, ‘Antoine, you’re our go-to player this year.’" Wright said that he realizes the NBA likely isn’t an option after this season, based on the way he’s played so far. “This year was kind of a measuring stick to see how I was and see how far I was away from (the NBA),” he said. “I just think it would be good for me to come back (to school).” Planters giving $10,000 to “nuttiest fans" Kraft Foods North America is sponsoring a promotion for online participants to vote for the “nuttiest fans” in college athletics at their Planters nuts product Web site http://www.planters.com/nut- tyfan.aspx. Kraft foods will give $10,000 to the athletic department of the school with most votes on at 11:59 p.m. EST on April 14, 2004. Presently Texas A&M leads over second-place Virginia Tech and third-place Marshall University. Colorado coach put on adminis trative leave Colorado head football coach Gary Barnett has been put on administrative leave by Colorado president Betsy Hoffman and chancel lor Dr. Richard Byyny for his remarks following the rape allegations brought forth by former Colorado place kicker Katie Hnida. Hnida has since transferred to the University of New Mexico where she is still a place kicker. “His remarks were extremely inappropriate and insensitive,” Hoffman said. “We believe it is appropriate to put him on administrative leave at this time.” A final decision will not be made until an investigation into Hnida’s rape case is complete. “The initial investigation will end on April 30, and we will make a decision at that time,” Hoffman said. “Everyone’s job is on the line.” The allegations of rape brought forth by Hnida is the latest in a list of allegations brought against Colorado’s football program since the season began. Other allega tions include hiring strippers and getting women to have sex with recruits.
