I was just looking.  Here are the grades for UNC/Wake Forest/Texas CBs who played 50% of snaps last season - sorted by coverage grade.

And the Coverage specific grades:

If I am reading this correctly, tackling is an area of opportunity for development with our new CB Holmes

I'm somewhat convinced Jimbo is a star hunter. 

I make fun of all these aggys saying "Grimes is a former 5 star" but I believe he thinks the same way. 

He is just a narrative hunter. Less pressure on him now that they have a former 5 star. As opposed to taking a lesser known name like Holmes (who is better) and feeling the outside pressure all year long

This was my point. I’m not saying it’s impossible to replicate, but a guy who’s only been in it one year who has as unimpressive of a resume as Huard isn’t going to be able to do it successfully. 

He has much more experience in Jimbo's offense. Which is why he's being hired if it's him. It's still Jimbo's offense.

They are waiting for a catastrophe of some kind that outweighs their hire to bury it in the news dump. 

You mean like the basketball coach of their rivals getting arrested for domestic violence?

Putting this here for posterity just in case we are all getting high on aggy tears on Friday. From aggy wire:

Quote

Now, after the chaos surrounding 5-Star safety Peyton Bowen’s eventual “flip” to Oklahoma, some analysts are asking the question (with zero merits) “Could Oklahoma land David Hicks Jr.?” Well, we shall see. As of this moment, there is no indication of any change in Hicks’ status with the Aggies, so expect the expected on Friday, Ags.

This kid had 50 offers, miraculously took only one visit, and now wants to transfer.   Lol

I was about to say, pretty funny given how quiet that recruitment was

Rumors on TexAgs courtesy of LHF. They're expecting Malick Sylla to be hitting the portal shortly. I'm on mobile rn so can't share the screenshots if someone wants to grab them from LHFs twitter.

Appears to be based off of this tweet:

I guess other players previously were tweeting the little 'lock' symbol indicating they were locked in to aggy.  Now Sylla tweets an 'unlock'.

That’s Twitter for “contact renegotiation”

Back in college, the doc thought I may have had Charybdis but it cleared up after a week or so.  Fucking Scripps College girls gave me a scare.

Yes, Billy. There's so much evidence that they were the Aggies the Aggies were they, true to their school as long as they pay. 

He knows his audience. He narrowly focuses on only perception while completely ignoring real evidence. Why were there bad apples in that class last year whom you claim to be glad to be rid of? Why are so many players opting out of the Aggie dream of being an Aggie forever?

They didn't choose A&M out of love like you'd like to believe. It's clear their motivation was otherwise. It's also clear that your dull minded fanbase thought they'd drawn these guys with their brilliance at NIL and their wealth. Then Jimbo put an end to that by saying there was no NIL money. Okay, how'd the money change hands?

Last year Aggies gloried in their brilliance at using money to get recruits thinking they'd done it within the rules. Now it's all, "college football has changed. It's sad that guys don't play for the alma mater! Give me 3-stars that want to be here!"

Your only mental trick is holding two opposing ideas in your mind at the same time and believing they're both true.

I hope Billy remains the Aggie guru forever. He's perfect for them.

Has anyone done the scholarship number math on aggy?  Not every portal guy is going to end up transferring but it's still going to be like they got hammered by the NCAA.

The mental gymnastics at play as they talk about how other schools buying mercenaries is going to backfire with locker room drama and mass transfers a year later, without acknowledging that they are literally the case study for both things happening after buying a class full of mercenaries, is impressive even for aggy.

I think someone posted they were at 60 scholarship players after portals, graduations, etc

Does Hicks have a time set for announcing/signing?

He's having problems accessing the contents of the thumb drive .

What is there to announce?

He's a bluechip committed to a program that doesn't do NIL well that has visited Eugene a bunch and likes Oregon. Probably won't be any drama.
