Dismiss the Aggies at your own peril. Last time I checked, they were the only SEC team in the hottest state (economically, socially, quality of living in the nation). Over time, they will be a top 5 SEC program, with a Natty every now and then.
This is so stupid, I lived in Texas as a youngin, everybody outside of college station are Longhorn fans including the Texas recruits. The aggies have got some top recruits this year and last because Texas had a horrible old coach with no personality. Once Texas wins under Charlie Strong they will lock down the state and get whoever they want. OU and Aggies will be third like they always have.

No, it's not like this is my first go around with aggies.

As Arkansas football continues to decline, and with the way the Aggies have been recruiting, has Texas A&M replaced Arkansas as one of the SEC powers just outside the big 3?
No. They are the new South Carolina.
You need to make a BCS bowl (In the SEC) and hit Atlanta three times before you can even equal Arkansas.
Ignore the fact we have beaten Texas A&M for over a century with their own talent mixed with ours. Someone isn't getting the rankings correctly. Arkansas was #6 in the nation when the classes were re-ranked on Nutt's 06 squad.
On, another note. I sure hope the Aggies win the West this year. If not, they will forever be behind Missouri and Arkansas when first heading to Atlanta. Heck, wait too long and they will be USC which took 20 years.

15-18 year old black kids don't give a damn which school it is:Texas/OU/A&M they can frick bitches, get a degree and do their thang at any of the schools. All they care about is getting to NFL and making money. SEC=1st rd draft picks=national championship=exposure=best.
It's that simple. Hell, at least half the kids, including the kid that committed today, said they grew up longhorn fans in their interviews. They don't give a damn. Almost every single commit thus far since the SEC move has said two things.
1) I want to play in the SEC with the best
2) I want to stay in Texas and do this
We will see

Sumlin's teams beat the snot out of Ar-Kansas in College Station.
Then beat them in their own house.
To infer that Texas A&M is now Ar-Kansas is below any further reply!

Aggies have a virus infecting that 2013 for sure. ESPN says Sumlin has lost all control over his squad. Sounds like they could become the Arkansas of 2012-13.

I also remember ESPN saying Johnny wouldn't make it through his final season. Too many distractions. Would fall on his arse this last time around.

All we need is 1 win in Atlanta to pass you, Missouri, South Carolina, and everyone else not in the Big 6.

I agree with everything you said, unfortunately you don't have a coach who can develop defensive players into NFL talents. All good though, he'll be on the hot seat after his defense gives up 30+ points a game again.

Teams consistently with top 5-10 recruiting classes are pretty interchangeable. Y'all are just recently breaking into this whereas bama and LSU have done it for quite some time. Wouldn't say y'all are recruiting better than LSU or on par with bama yet. Maybe after 5 or so years of top 5 classes you can make that claim.

Wow.. I was literally thinking this exact thought about 10 seconds before seeing this thread. I was thinking of it in more of a baseless overinflated ego sense, however.
