Take it for what it's worth (not much), info likely vanishes once Sumlin is gone and everything turns over:

Positives:
- Nick Starkel actually looks pretty good, he's gonna throw some pucks but he's got the most lively arm our AD has seen since Reggie McNeal. He's not gonna underthrow any of his receivers. He's a lock to win the job.
- Roshauud Paul looks like a more athletic version of Macolm Kennedy, he'll be a four year contributor
- Ausbon is the best true freshman outside receiver A&M has ever had, he won't run by anyone but he catches EVERYTHING
- Starting OL looks much better than last year, could be a team strength if they stay healthy
- Zaycoven Henderson and Kingsley Keke are both gonna be picked in the first three rounds of the draft, one of the best DT combos out there
-RBs are gonnna be strong
- Fuller/Oliver is gonna be a good corner combo for a couple years, Willis won't hold off Fuller all year

Negatives:
- Our LBs aren't very good, and Hines is tiny
- DE play is horriawful, Clemons is just learning to play with his hand in the ground, Cunningham is a tweener who gets pushed around and Johnson is the definition of average at everything good at nothing. We basically have 5 guys on the roster prepared to play DE in the opener. It's by far our coaches' biggest concern.
- Ratley still can't catch
- FGs are gonna be a problem again
- We're gonna have trouble generating a pass rush
- Dayton Mack is probably never gonna do much more than he already has, he just doesn't have the body type and when he drops any weight to improve his endurance he loses his strength. Short arms too.
- Our depth overall is very unreliable

Nearly every part of the OP was wrong:

Positives:
- Nick Starkel actually looks pretty good, he's gonna throw some pucks but he's got the most lively arm our AD has seen since Reggie McNeal. He's not gonna underthrow any of his receivers. He's a lock to win the job. This came true
- Roshauud Paul looks like a more athletic version of Macolm Kennedy, he'll be a four year contributor. Barely seen this season
- Ausbon is the best true freshman outside receiver A&M has ever had, he won't run by anyone but he catches EVERYTHING. Not even remotely true. Terrence Murphy, Earvin Taylor, Jamar Taylor, and many others have been better. Does not "catch everything"
- Starting OL looks much better than last year, could be a team strength if they stay healthy. WRONG
- Zaycoven Henderson and Kingsley Keke are both gonna be picked in the first three rounds of the draft, one of the best DT combos out there. Maybe true
-RBs are gonnna be strong Not really
- Fuller/Oliver is gonna be a good corner combo for a couple years, Willis won't hold off Fuller all year Fuller has been almost nonexistent. Renfro and Jones have been far more productive

Negatives:
- Our LBs aren't very good, and Hines is tiny Glad this was wrong
- DE play is horriawful, Clemons is just learning to play with his hand in the ground, Cunningham is a tweener who gets pushed around and Johnson is the definition of average at everything good at nothing. We basically have 5 guys on the roster prepared to play DE in the opener. It's by far our coaches' biggest concern. Durham and Johnson disagree
- Ratley still can't catch Somewhat true
- FGs are gonna be a problem again Absolutely false
- We're gonna have trouble generating a pass rush False
- Dayton Mack is probably never gonna do much more than he already has, he just doesn't have the body type and when he drops any weight to improve his endurance he loses his strength. Short arms too. Not sure
- Our depth overall is very unreliable Somewhat true
