SEC won't send aggie to play any BIG XII team in the Texas Bowl that recruits well in the state of TX. They're the golden goose for your conference's recruiting in that state.


What? If you're saying A&M losing would affect other recruits to big SEC schools, you're wrong, and if you're saying A&M is the golden goose for recruiting in Texas, you're also wrong.

quote:

2014 they sent Arky to play Texas.
2015 they sent LSU to play Tech.
2016 they sent aggie to play K State. Kstate has no recruiting presence anywhere, and certainly not in TX.
2017 they sent Mizzou to play Texas.
2018 they sent Vandy to play Baylor.

See the shield?



I don't understand what 'shield' you're talking about. Are you saying A&M is shielded? Because A&M hasn't even been getting the best players out of Texas in the SEC.

LSU is the favorite for Zachary Evans, who's the best recruit out of Texas this year, and that's a small sample but shows how Texas A&M isn't getting the best recruits out of Texas.

Texas A&M draws views from Texas. That's the main reason the SEC wanted to add them. Not for any weird recruiting thing.

It’s a Big 12 fake news talking point

That's exactly what I'm saying. Do you SEC fans even know how your league controls bowl representation and who goes where? Are you even aware of that?
