51 players are from the state of Texas in the LSU vs Oklahoma semi final game. LSU and Oklahoma almost doubled the amount of wins Texas and Texas a&m had combine at the end of the regular season.
Texas/Texas a&m 14 wins
Oklahoma 12 wins
LSU 13 wins
Why does Texas flagship schools miss out on the great players that run for the border to LSU and Oklahoma?
This has to suck for a has been program and a never will be program.

Both of those schools suck arse at player evaluation.

There are fifty gazillion kids in The Great State.
Unfortunately, there isn’t room for all of ‘em to stay and play ball.
I’m happy that they were well developed growing up, landed at good programs, and are playing in a big game.

LSU and OU tend to make “strong-arse offers,” if you know what I mean.
Posted on 12/26/19 at 9:52 pm to TigerClique21
Most of those kids can’t pass the admission standards of Texas instate schools. OU has been defined by this forever.

Lolz. Aggies like to act as if they are the Harvards of the South.

Yes but do your cities have a beloved population of bats? What about a massive influx of software nerds who couldn’t pay their rent in San Fran? Can you spend $8 on a street taco?
I doubt it, you’re all just jealous.

I think you meant to say, “Aggies like to act as if Texas A&M University is the Harvard of the south.”
You’ve been busy today!

A&M recruited two of the last three first overall picks.

It's always great to be a Longhorn, and we'll give you a good game in September, although I reserve the right to change that to "good" or "competitive" or "good old college try" depending on how things go for us on Tuesday, and how things go for you on Saturday.
On the one hand, I'm of course disappointed with Texas (the flagship) football. On the other hand, I'm fine with Texas (the state) producing a good number of great players. If either school does hit the right mix in coaching, that's going to to work out well for them, and they'll keep more of those players. I'd feel a lot worse if Texas had gone full bore on soccer or lacrosse and wasn't producing any talent.

Examining the last 10 recruiting classes, the quality of player coming out of the State of Texas has looked like this:
2011 Top 100
4 - 5 star
42 - 4 star
2012 Top 100
5 - 5 star (+1)
53 - 4 star (+11)
2013 Top 100
5 - 5 star
41 - 4 star (-12)
2014 Top 100
5 - 5 star
33 - 4 star (-8)
2015 Top 100
6 - 5 star (+1)
42 - 4 star (+9)
2016 Top 100
2 - 5 star (-4)
53 - 4 star (+11)
2017 Top 100
4 - 5 star (+2)
45 - 4 star (-8)
2018 Top 100
2 - 5 star (-2)
48 - 4 star (+3)
2019 Top 100
6 - 5 star (+4)
41 - 4 star (-7)
2020 Top 100
3 - 5 star (-3)
50 - 4 star (+9)
If you score it like a turnover margin, from 2011 - 2020 it looks like:
5-star: Average decline of 0.1/year
4-star: Average increase of 0.8/year
Not sure why the drastic ebbs and flows in 4-star players in the composite ranking except to attribute it to the inconsistent and outright stupid bias that Rivals and ESPN show (example: Devon Achane is the 96th best player in the country according to 247, the 262nd best player according to ESPN and not even in the top 250 of Rivals, which drops his composite rating to 216)
