The 2025 college basketball coaching carousel continues to spin and Texas A&M is the latest school to be impacted. Kevin Willard taking the job at Villanova opened the job at Maryland, and the Terrapins pounced on a notable Power Four name, officially hiring Texas A&M’s Buzz Williams on Tuesday. Williams leaves A&M after six seasons and three straight NCAA Tournament appearances, though the Aggies never made the second weekend of the NCAA bracket during his tenure.
The Aggies have shown high-end basketball potential, reaching as high as No. 7 in the AP Poll this season. Who are the names that the Aggies will have on the Texas A&M basketball coaching hot board?

Top Texas A&M basketball coach candidates
One name the staff has identified as a potential target on the Texas A&M basketball coaching hot board is High Point head coach Alan Huss. A player at Creighton from 1997-2001, Huss worked his way through the coaching ranks before landing his first collegiate head coaching job at High Point in 2023.
He’s been an overwhelming success, going 56-15 overall (27-5 Big South) and finishing as the runner-up in the CBI last season before leading the Panthers to their first ever NCAA Tournament appearance this year.
“If the Aggies wanted to go away from their ugly brand of basketball under Williams and embrace a more aesthetically pleasing style, Huss could be an ideal fit,” Carter Karels of GigEm247 wrote. “He is known for having quite the efficient offense, which emphasizes analytics and getting to the free-throw line at a high rate.” Get more Texas A&M coaching search updates at GigEm247.
