HOUSTON -- Brad Corbett, who owned the Texas Rangers from 1974 to 1980 and wasnt afraid to regularly switch out managers, died on Christmas Eve. Casey Matthews Eagles Jersey . He was 75. Corbetts daughter, Pamela Corbett Murrin, told The Associated Press that her father died peacefully in his sleep on Monday. She said he had not been sick recently. "The Texas Rangers are saddened to hear of the death of Brad Corbett," the team said in a statement. "His tenure as owner was marked by a passion and drive to bring a winning team to the fans of North Texas." At Corbetts helm, the team had six managers in six years -- four in the 1977 season alone. An article on the Rangers website also said the team had its first four winning seasons under Corbett and finished second in the AL West three times. The 94 victories in 1977 remained the most in team history until 1999, it said. "The spirit in which Mr. Corbett served as owner of the Rangers will be remembered always," the team statement said. Corbett was directly involved in decision-making, including player transactions. Corbett traded away three future Hall of Fame pitchers -- Ferguson Jenkins, Gaylord Perry and Bert Blyleven -- during his tenure. Corbett made his money in the plastics business, turning a $300,000 loan from the Small Business Administration into a multimillion dollar company that sold plastic pipes for industrial use. Just three seasons after the Rangers had moved from Washington, D.C., Corbett bought the team from Bob Short. He sold the team to Fort Worth oil man Eddie Chiles in 1980, when both the Rangers and Corbetts other ventures were struggling financially.

COLLEGE STATION, Texas -- Texas A&M was finally back to full strength on Wednesday night. It wasnt enough to get past No. 4 Kansas. Elijah Johnson scored 21 points and Tyshawn Taylor made key plays down the stretch to help Kansas fight off a late run by the Aggies for a 66-58 victory. Kansas (23-5, 13-2 Big 12) led by as many as 21 points in the second half before a big run by the Aggies got them within striking distance.
