Here is the thing about A&M. They are the opposite of the rest of the "middle of the pack" teams. Most of those schools are looking to hit on all cylinders so they can catch lightning in a bottle and win. For A&M they just need to quit tripping over themselves to do so because if A&M ever finds a way to win an SEC Title they will be a force that is very, very hard to knock back down. If A&M can win the money that will flow into the program will be mind boggling and they will dominate recruiting in Texas just as they did in the late '80s and early '90s, only this time they are built to sustain it.
It truly is the sleeping giant that is trying ever so hard to wake up.
BTW, I think Florida is a lock to get back to the top and stay there. FSU and Miami are living on borrowed time right now. Both are hurting for money and the ACC TV deal sucks, especially compared to what is about to happen with the SEC Network. With Florida in complete control of that state it can't help but be elite.

FSU always recruits well. They will continue to do so. They have some very good recruiters and there is too much talent in the state for two teams to not prosper. Plus, they play in the weak arse ACC. They can sell ACC championships and good bowls to their recruits. Also, they still send a good number of guys to the NFL. Not every kid is enamored with playing in the best conference. They just want NFL money no matter how it happens.
FSU doesn't need money. The state pays them.
Miami = toast
The S. FL kids will still go there but they won't be able to recruit the rest of the state or nationally like they used to. S. FL kids alone won't be enough for various reason which I won't go into here.
