It's pathetic that A&M has been unable to capitalize on the SEC move like it should have...


It is only year 5 in the SEC. They are in the SEC West with arguably one of the best modern dynasty in college football with Bama under Nick Saban.

Rules that only impact SEC teams have also hindered their recruiting.

-Not being able to play "Spring games" at neutral sites caused A&M to lose some momentum.

-The "over recruiting" rule added during expansion has also cotributed to A&M never having a full roster, because they started out in the league with only 65 scholarship players.

-SEC only JUCO and transfer rules have also impacted several A&M classes.

This is year 5 after the recruiting rule changes. Going forward every team in now on equal footing. A&M has also been able to host a Spring game which is already paying benefits with the 2018 class.

Who knew the rules about neutral site spring games could alter the direction of a football program.
