Texas recruits were not good last year. Chavis had Tyrel Dodson as his #1 target and Mike Divinity (LSU) as his #2 at linebacker. Ed Oliver (UH) was A&M's top target along with TD Moton (TDB) at defensive tackle. A&M prioritized Brandon Jackson (Sips) and Mark Jackson (OU), but they both wanted to start immediately.
A&M whiffed last year, but it wasn't with the kids from TX. It was with the LA kids that they wanted that ended up at LSU (Divinity, Lewis, and Greedy Williams), McTelvin Agim (Arky), and the CA kids who chose USC (Oluwole Betiku and Jack Jones).

6 4/5-star TX DL had A&M offers and went elsewhere
3 4/5-star TX LB had A&M offers and went elsewhere
7 4/5-star TX DB had A&M offers and went elsewhere
A&M signed 1,0,2 respectively from those same groups. Not sure how you can argue a) the TX recruits weren't good or b) A&M didn't want them.

This is not true First 26 of the 52 composite 4/5 stars were defensive players. A&M targeted DTS: Ross Blacklock, and Ed Oliver. They slow played Chris Daniels and circled back to him late in the cycle and whiffed on all 3.
A&M targeted DE Mark Jackson and whiffed on him. They slowplayed DE Isiah Chambers but in hindsight should've taken.
A&M targeted LB Sewo Olonilua and Jeffrey McCulluch- they missed on both.
A&M targed DBs Brandon Jones and Eric Cuffee- another 2 misses.
Texas was much deeper defensively in 2016 but the staff couldn't close.
