Can you remember the last time A&M had an elite RB? Neither can we.


ohh ohh ohh!

is this the part of the thread where we blame coaches for players not doing as well as a random scout on 247 or rivals projected while ignoring things like injuries, football IQ, and their own willingness to put in the time to improve?

It's the coaches fault James White was dealing with injuries that stunted his abilities all year! It's the coaches fault Trey Williams never could learn how to block for shite!! It's the coaches fault Mike Goodson was a raging a-hole with the IQ of a rock!!!

I know you are being facetious but I actually agree with this point. The same reason Trey Will "couldn't" block is the same reason he left early- he never got over the entitlement that comes with being a five star recruit. He never got the hunger to succeed, as he thought the NFL was a guaranteed option day one. College was the thing he put up with until they let him make his money.

If he would have gone to Bama (for example) he would have learned to block and be a better player. Year one he would have redshirted holding someone else's water, year two he would have been almost kicked off the team for his attitude, then year three and four he would have lead the SEC in rushing yards. They have a system for turning recruiting rockstars into real players.

Our current staff definitely has a problem keeping big egos in check. Tra the three star being a starter isn't really a surprise- he is the only one that had to earn his place every step of the way.
