Is this the most "experienced" and deepest team since A&M joined the SEC?.

Saw this excerpt on Rivals ( LINK).

quote:

One of the gripes about the recent A&M teams is that they've been young and inexperienced. I don't necessarily think that will apply to this year's team, except maybe on the offensive line. Take a look at this potential two-deep:

QB: Trevor Knight (RS-Sr.), Jake Hubenak (RS-Jr.)

RB: James White (RS-Jr.), Keith Ford (RS-Jr.)

WR: Speedy Noil (Jr.), Jeremy Tabuyo (SR.)

WR: Christian Kirk (Soph.), Boone Niederhofer (RS-Sr.)

WR: Ricky Seals-Jones (RS-Jr.), Frank Iheanacho (RS-Soph.)

WR: Josh Reynolds (Sr.), Edward Pope (RS-Sr.)

LT: Avery Gennesy (RS-Sr.), Koda Martin (RS-Soph.)

LG: Connor Lanfear (Soph.), Keaton Sutherland (Soph.)

C: Erik McCoy (RS-Fr.), TBD

RG: Jermaine Eluemunor (RS-Sr.), Tank Davis (RS-Soph.)

RT: Koda Martin (RS-Soph.), Trevor Elbert (RS-Fr.)



DE: Myles Garrett (Jr.), Qualen Cunningham (Jr.)

DT: Zaycoven Henderson (Jr.), Hardreck Walker (Sr.)

DT: Daylon Mack (Soph.), Kingsley Keke (Soph.)

DE: Daeshon Hall (Sr.), Jarrett Johnson (Jr.)

OLB: Shaan Washington (Sr.), Dwaine Thomas (Soph.)

MLB: Otaro Alaka (RS-Soph.), Claude George (RS-Sr.)

OLB: Richard Moore (Soph.), TBD

Nickel: Donovan Wilson (Jr.), Noel Ellis (RS-Jr.)

CB: Priest Willis (RS-Soph.), Roney Elam (RS-Fr.)

CB: Nick Harvey (Jr.), Deshawn Capers-Smith (RS-Fr.)

FS: Armani Watts (Jr.), Justin Dunning (Soph.)

SS: Justin Evans (RS-Sr.), Larry Pryor (RS-Fr.)

No true freshmen starting and very few freshmen at all in the two-deep. This is an experienced ballclub.


I agree with his assessment at offensive line if you look at starts, but this team is actually older than the 2012 line-up with two 5th year Seniors and a bunch of 2+ year players.

Probably but it's offset by a VERY iffy QB and OL, two of the three most important aspects of a team along with DL.

I'd rather have stacked lines and a good QB with youth everywhere else.

Best average talent since the 1990s (probably):
