One of the successes of the 2006-07 season for the Houston Rockets was the liftoff of the "Red Rowdies", the loud, crazed fans sitting in section 114 courtesy of season tickets bought by former coach Jeff Van Gundy and later star Tracy McGrady.

But with Van Gundy gone, will the Red Rowdies be back?

Clutchfans learned on Tuesday that new coach Rick Adelman has signed off on it and the Rowdies will return in 2007-08.

Stay tuned though as the selection process is wide open. There will be all-new tryouts for the Rowdies and the date for that will be announced sometime in the future. There also is a good chance that there will be more than the 70 Rowdies there were last year.

However, if you're looking to throw your hat in the ring you better bring your "A" game as a fan to the tryout. The ORG was pretty happy with the Rowdies' performance last year and many of them could have the inside track.
