Here's the link to the 2025 tab of the depth chart: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TzoBTIvCXfZIk7Sz3C9txMg0yPvrXyVM/edit?gid=1658728281#gid=1658728281 Here's an explanation of the tabs: 2025 - Depth chart based on remaining eligibility. Players in italics are expected attrition (portal or NFL). As players enter the portal or declare for the draft, then they will be deleted. 2024 - I'll continue to update this through the end of the season. Players entering the portal will remain in this sheet so we can see how the depth was affected. Portal entries are color coded per the legend at the top of the sheet. Texas by Class - Shows the player data of each signing class since 2017. The source is 247 composite. I track current status such as Roster, Transfer, NFL, Graduated (a career other than sports), Medical retirement, etc. Texas Grid - Shows players by their signing class rather than by remaining eligibility. Also has their 247 composite rating so that the average rating for the offense, defense, and team can be calculated. Also shows the blue chip ratio. Aggie by Class - Same as Texas by Class, but for A&M. Aggie Grid - Similar to Texas Grid, but for A&M. The difference is that the portal entries remain on this sheet through the Spring so that we can see how many players left. 2023 - 2011 - End of season depth charts for past Texas teams.

I added a 2025 tab to the depth chart spreadsheet https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TzoBTIvCXfZIk7Sz3C9txMg0yPvrXyVM/edit?gid=1658728281#gid=1658728281 Those that are projected by Surly to declare for the NFL or portal are italicized, although when there's not a consensus, I'll assume they're returning. I also updated the Texas Grid and Aggie Grid tabs which shows athletes by signing class rather than by remaining eligibility, along with their 247 composite rating (transfers get their transfer rating, no their HS rating). The Blue Chip Ratio is at the bottom of those tabs. Names are removed once they state they are entering the portal or declaring for the draft (i.e., no speculation for these tabs).

I included the 2 transfers (Max Johnson, Micaiah Overton) who are both gone.

@closetojumping already answered this (50%), but here are some details. This link (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TzoBTIvCXfZIk7Sz3C9txMg0yPvrXyVM/edit?gid=1682239859#gid=1682239859) has an Aggie by Class tab which lists every signee since 2017 and where they ended their careers. There's also a Texas by Class tab. 16 of 32 signees from 2022 are no longer on the A&M roster.

Saw this on Twitter/X: Billy Bowman announces new NIL deal with Slip’n Slide

Coach Glove is Deon Glover. His son is Tony Grimes. Maybe A&M saw how poorly Tony played in 2023 Spring ball and decided not to pay. He transferred to UNLV in 2024.

According to Wikipedia: The Lone Star Showdown is the traditional rivalry for all varsity men's and women's athletics competitions between the University of Texas at Austin and Texas A&M University. The State Farm Lone Star Showdown started in 2004 and was created to bring more attention to the rivalry in non-major sports. The Lone Star Showdown trophy was awarded to the winning school each year based on head-to-head matchup in each sport. The final episode of the annual competition occurred during the 2011–12 academic year. Makes sense to restart this now that we're in the same conference. Probably needed a press conference to give the new sponsor some pub.

Here's what I track based on composite ratings of .90 or higher (I don't track stars). Transfers get their transfer rating, not their HS rating. However, it just shows the rating at NSD (for HS) or on the commitment date (transfers). I don't check the ratings to see if they've been updated. It's not perfect, but it's at least a step in the right direction.

Cross posting for those that missed other threads: There are a lot of tabs in that file (quoted link) depending on your interest. If you enjoy memory lane, there's a tab for where things stood at the end of each season since 2011. There are Texas by Class and Aggie by Class tabs which shows what happened to every recruit since 2017. The Aggie Grid is an alternative to the depth chart/class style I use for Texas. It shows each recruit by class (rather than remaining eligibility) and their player rating. I don't track depth chart for Aggie since I don't follow them close enough and Ourlads.com does a better job of tracking than I could do. The Roster tab is a dump from the Texas web site and is used by formulas in the 2024 tab to update the jersey numbers. The player positions and depth chart in the 2024 tab is based on what I read on Surly, which includes a lot of speculation. When the season starts, I'll update them based on the official depth chart each week.

https://www.texasexes.org/about-us/history-and-traditions/truth-about-bevo tl;dr - The mascot was named Bevo before the 13 - 0 branding. The brand was never changed from 13 - 0 to BEVO. Texas A&M did not steal the mascot.

Elko coached at A&M for the 2018 - 2021 seasons. 63 players that were on the roster during those years transferred, were expelled, or took a medical retirement. 29 of those 63 were on defense. There are only 3 defensive players currently on the roster from Elko's time: Shemar Turner, Albert Regis, and Tyreek Chappell. They were all freshman in 2021. You can see what happened to every signee since 2017 in the Aggie by Class tab https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TzoBTIvCXfZIk7Sz3C9txMg0yPvrXyVM/edit#gid=1912575733. There's also a Texas by Class tab.

I'm hearing Izzo to Kentucky. A lot confidence on the UK side.

A few observations: - Aggies are at 62, which is one spot higher than Clemson which has lost 10 players to the portal and has zero commits. - There are 3 teams ranked higher than A&M that have zero transfers coming in and 7+ transfers going out. - A&M has the highest outgoing average performance rating of the top 65 teams. - The average rating of the incoming commits is #33 of 65 teams. - ON3 is saying that A&M has lost more talent/performance than they've brought in. ON3 describes their ranking as "On3's Team Transfer Portal Index utilizes the On3 (P)erformance score to measure a team’s production during the transfer process, compared relative against its roster and not a comparison against other schools. This proprietary algorithm determines if a school has improved its overall team talent, stayed the same, or declined in talent during the transfer window."

Here's a link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TzoBTIvCXfZIk7Sz3C9txMg0yPvrXyVM/edit#gid=1682239859 Looks like I'll need to update it to remove Watts. Not sure who the other safety starter will be. NT will look a lot better with Caldwell as a starter.

Here's a link to what I have (73 not counting Bussey) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TzoBTIvCXfZIk7Sz3C9txMg0yPvrXyVM/edit#gid=529379820 RB - Add Jerry Johnson (blue) TE - Add Theo Melin Öhrström (probably behind a healthy Green and Platt) DT - Add Jadon Scarlett (blue) WLB - Add Jurriente Davis LCB - Jayvon Thomas is listed twice. Kent Robinson is a PWO. RCB - Add Bravion Rogers FS - Add Bobby Taylor (blue) NB - Josh DeBerry used his Covid year and is out of eligibility (red cross out) K - Add Jared Zirkel (Green - KO specialist xfer from Georgia). Add Ethan Moczulski P - Add Tyler White

13 of 32 of the 2022 class have transferred. 6 more leaving before 2025 would be 60%, which seems reasonable (at a minimum). Aggie by Class tab: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TzoBTIvCXfZIk7Sz3C9txMg0yPvrXyVM/edit#gid=1912575733

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TzoBTIvCXfZIk7Sz3C9txMg0yPvrXyVM/edit#gid=1682239859 Offensive Notes: - Sanders is unlikely to return. Not sure about Ewers or Brooks. Leaving them in until I hear something definitive. - Mitchell is not listed, but he might return. - Majors was recognized on Senior Day (which is why he is in italics), but is expected to be back. Defensive Notes: - Carter, Gbenda, and Watts were all recognized on Senior Day, but are expected to be back. - There's a lot of position flexibility, so not sure where to put some of these names (e.g., Mukuba might start at Star). - Not sure who will be starting at Mike. I showed Gbenda and Hill as starters, but I thought they both played Will, so not sure how it will end up. - Never sure who to put as Buck vs. Sam, especially the RS FR.
