re: 2017 Taylor Hamm Recruiting VIP Info Thread

I know you guys are going to laugh, but we aren't going to get guys like Tony Brown and Sheffield until we build a new Track & Field stadium. Those guys are Elite Track and Field stars and they knew each other from the circuit. Our outdoor T&F stadium is in such disrepair that they can't host in the SEC. A&M wasn't as high on Anderson, but he also chose Ole Miss to run T&F too. This is also why we have lost out on some elite WR recruits, like Levonte Whitfield (FSU specialist who helped win the NC against Auburn with the kick return TD). I don't think Monroe ever really showed interest in A&M.

We have done pretty well with the baseball/football signees, because we have shown some commitment to improvement. Johnny Manziel, Kenny Hill, Kohl Stewart (signed MLB) and the midget all were enticed by other sports.
