re: What happened to Aggy recruiting?

Backing into a title after losing the head-to-head at home

Looks like Aggy sucked all of the awareness out of you.

1 head-to-head at home, didn't win the division, didn't win the conference, didn't play in a conference championship

Go back to fricking your Aggy friend, you're clearly a lot better at that.

Resetting the Texas A&M board: Where the Aggies stand on offense in the 2023 class

Brian Perroni (normally the sunshine pumper, but...you hate to see it)

Texas A&M is not near the top of the rankings at this point as the Aggies have just five pledges right now.

... we look at where things stand at the moment at each position on offense.

QUARTERBACK
Texas A&M swung for the fences with a couple five-star passers ... now completely focused on four-star Dripping Springs, Texas, quarterback Austin Novosad...committed to Baylor since mid-December but both A&M and Ohio State offered in June (Notre Dame just offered)

... back to the drawing board at the position.

RUNNING BACK
A&M has had two primary targets at running back for some time now. One is El Campo, Texas, five-star Rueben Owens ...commitment to Louisville

... the other is Orlando (Fla.) Edgewater national top-50 prospect Cedric Baxter Jr....Baxter is considered a lean to Texas, Florida and Miami are also involved.

Four-star Kaleb Jackson out of Baton Rouge is announcing Tuesday morning. ... he seems likely to stay in town and play for LSU.

Four-star Jeremiyah Love out of St. Louis (Mo.) Christian Brothers i... is being recruited by A&M as a running back. ... also made officials to Alabama, Michigan, Notre Dame and Oregon. The Irish are in pretty good shape ...

Depending on how things shake out and how they feel about their other targets, A&M could get more involved with four-star Roderick Robinson II out of San Diego. He is committed to UCLA but ...

A&M has also recently offered speedy South Florida prospect Christopher Johnson. A onetime Rutgers commit,

WIDE RECEIVER
A&M brought in quite a few wide receivers for official visits in June, but the Aggies were still working on figuring out the board.

Five-star Zachariah Branch out of Vegas is the nation’s top wideout but has been committed to USC for some time. His older brother signed with the Trojans in the class of 2022 as well.

Five-star Hykeem Williams out of South Florida. A&M, Miami, Georgia and Pitt ... officials as well. Georgia could be the one to watch as the main competition.

Another South Florida prospect, four-star Andy Jean...released a top five over the weekend of A&M, Alabama, Florida, Georgia and Miami.

Five-star Shelton Sampson out of Louisiana in for a visit in the fall. A&M had Georgia commit Raymond Cottrell in for an official last month .... They also had Tyler Williams out of Florida...expect him to choose Georgia.

The Aggies brought in four-star Adam Hopkins out of Georgia...

Four-star Converse Judson (Texas) wide receiver Anthony Evans...took an official visit to A&M in June.

A&M has not been pursuing Longview four-star Jalen Hale as hard as others have been lately and did not make his top three that he announced last week. Classic A&M!!!


OFFENSIVE LINE
A&M has one offensive lineman committed in Colton Thomasson of Smithson Valley (Texas).

The most likely elite true tackle prospect to join the class is probably national top-100 player Chase Bisontis out of New Jersey. He took officials to A&M, LSU, Michigan State and Rutgers.

East St. Louis, Ill. four-star Miles McVay... but, right now, A&M is not at the top of the list.

Caden Jones out of Louisiana He camped in Aggieland in June ... A similar player also from New Orleans is Tyree Adams. Payton Kirkland out of Orlando...

Two other players to at least keep an eye on are three-star Paul Mubenga out of Georgia, who officially visited last month, and three-star Naquil Betrand from Philadelphia.

... four-star TJ Shanahan of Austin Westlake (not recruited by Texas). After moving from Orlando prior to his junior season... He also officially visited Georgia and LSU...

The other interior players to watch are Micah Banuelos out of Seattle and Kelton Smith of Georgia. Banuelos...[Oregon is the most likely destination. Smith...most think he will stay in state.

A$M has ONE offensive commitment, the #61 player in Texas. Hoping for a lot of out of state mercenaries ...

Baxter (RB) is the only real head to head w/ Texas.

Lots of words from another obsessed horn. Which Aggie poster on rant had the 3-way with your wife and mother?

He’ll be back in here once he and Mr Sausage finish their morning round.

And no, I’m not talking about golf.

Fine. I’ll bite.

A&M’s “recruiting momentum”, despite what you want to believe was primarily caused by finishing 2019 with 1 loss to Bama and finishing the year ranked number 4.

It actually is a very simple equation, if A&M wins they will do very well the following year.
When they don’t, they don’t.

So, given the status quo, it’s easy to recruit against A&M’s mediocrity last season. If they turn things around come November, they will be in the top 10 again, maybe higher.

It’s very simple. If A&M wins they recruit extremely well.

So y’all better pray we lose our asses.

Lol

See you in Feb and we can discuss intelligently.
