Hopefully UF keeps him in state.

Bama's WR class from Florida alone is amazing.

I think our staff likes where we currently stand with him...currently. I don't think that was necessarily the case last week, but now if he was committing today, I'd like Bama's chances.

Are y’all done? Please tell me y’all are done. The rest of us need to figure out what’s left after Bama is done with its draft process.

Two more draftees:

4* DB Terrion Arnold

5* DE JT Tuimoloau

Dont forget about the OL Roberts tomorrow.

Op don't be misled. A&M was never getting a Bockermeyer.

A&M took our commit over Milner. So if your intent is to throw shade at the Aggies you missed.

Milroe was ready to commit to A&M next year and jimbo took Stowers instead. If Milroy makes it at bama, I think it could come back to haunt us

Bama pulled the #1 and #2 ranked player in Florida.

Three 5 stars from Florida.

Not my intention to “throw shade”, simply about a group of excellent recruits for the Tide out of Texas. Lighten up Francis.

Their haul in Florida with Hall, Brooks, Turner, Leary and Latham is just as insane

I wasn't aware A&M was the only college in Texas that Alabama was recruiting against.

Holy shite, Bama has 5 of the top 12 in Florida. Having been in Florida until my early 20s, that's crazy to see.

Played RB back in the day. Not as well as these fellas, to put it mildly. But it's the only position I feel comfortable commenting on.

Wheaton is a little more elusive than Johnson. Johnson runs with a little more power than Wheaton. Just depends on what you're prioritizing in a 1st and 2nd down RB between those two.

I haven't seen much from either in pass blocking, so they probably have a ways to go there to get out on the field on 3rd down. But that's common for these really good high school RBs where pass blocking is an afterthought.

Johnson and our current RB Spiller have similar running styles. I read earlier in the season where Johnson said his high school team runs the same running play that Spiller broke for a TD on 4th down against the Gators.

The A&M coaches just seem to have gravitated towards Johnson throughout the past year. Jimbo is trying to give the A&M offense a power running identity to lean on in the 4th quarter.

The only one of those players at which A&M had a remote shot on offense was JoJo Earle. The Brockermeyer's and their Father hate the school with everything they have, and Wheaton never really gave us the time of day - OU led for most of his recruitment

On defense, we would have liked to have the LB, and actually had a decent shot until Alabama entered the picture. Alabama hurt OU and Texas way more than A&M with those recruitments, but I think Blackshire is a monster

I have no clue why A&M fans still love Bama like a daddy.

Y’all continue to raid their state

Jalen Milroy 10/22 for 50 yards in his last game.

Jimbo could have had him but chose another guy.

Bama recruited well in Texas but might want to slow your roll a little.

But the good thing about Texas is the depth of talent. The #2s or #3s at each position is enough to win you a ton of games.


Hasnt been good enough for Texas

A&M sounds bitter in here.


We really wanted the tackle brockmeyer and earle. Those two are brutal losses for us even if we never had a chance with brockmeyer. The other 4 aren't really that big a deal to us
