Head coach Stew Morrill has guided the Aggies to an impressive 143-46 record in his six years at the helm, but losing out on a chance to get back to the NCAA Tournament last season has to eat at the talented coach and his players. Fortunately for Morrill, he returns a good portion of last year's squad, including forward Nate Harris who ranked second on the team with 11.7 ppg and 6.1 rpg. Harris also led the Big West in field goal percentage (.677) and is a consensus all-conference first team selection. Spencer Nelson should also be one of the top players for this squad, having posted 11.5 ppg and a squad-best 7.8 rpg in 2003-04. Forward Jason Williams averaged just 6.7 ppg and 2.4 rpg last season, but his production should skyrocket with Cardell Butler (14 ppg) having moved on. Williams has the ability to score from the paint and is also a solid shooter from behind the arc (.352). The only area of weakness for the Aggies seems to be in the backcourt, where they will have inexperience and a lack of scoring output. That being said, Marques Crane has excelled in the offseason and could quickly become the team's most reliable guard with his ability to drive to the basket and create offensive opportunities.
