re: 2015 Recruiting Discussion

quote:

Mack has a final group of A&M, TCU and Texas and word started to circulate on Monday that he has informed the Longhorn coaches he would not be headed to Austin to play his college ball. TCU has felt strongly about its chances with the 6-foot, 330-pound standout for some time but that confidence and optimism has started to wane as well.

Meanwhile, as we have been saying since late last week, the Aggies are feeling a lot more confident with the former A&M pledge. A&M feels there is a very strong chance he ends up back on the commit list when he announces his decision on Wednesday at 11 a.m.

Boyd, meanwhile, committed to Texas on Austin television last Friday. However, we are hearing he is having serious second thoughts.

Obviously, that is not surprising given the way his recruitment has gone, but Texas is worried about losing the Army All-American to the Aggies. In fact, we have been told by sources that he was on the phone with A&M while driving to Austin last week and was already rethinking his decision. The announcement on the TV station was planned, though, and he decided to go through with it.

Watching Twitter on Monday evening, you can see that several Aggie players such as Josh Walker, who is close friends with Boyd, and Ricky Seals-Jones are hinting at something. They seem confident A&M will flip Boyd from the Longhorns. Mack even sent a cyptic tweet Boyd's way that seemed to indicate something was up.

GigEm247 analyst Taylor Hamm is putting in a Crystal Ball flip pick for Boyd and it will likely not be long before you see some others come in as well.

Obviously, Boyd is one recruit who can change his mind on a whim and has done so in the past, but everything we are hearing from multiple sources indicate the Aggies will land both him and Mack.
