Aggie - Fisher - Plan 2024 Synopsis, as I've come to hear about it: Spoilered for the tl;dr crowd that doesn't give a shit and doesn't want to scroll.

I have to tell you, I don't know if I can handle this if it is true. They are speculating on the aggie 247 board that, because Elijah Robinson is still an employee at Texas A&M and because he is c

I went ahead and reviewed the listed 2024 visitors from that Texags moderator post. I said that update looked grim, but I really didn't realize how hideous it truly is. I spoilered it for people who wouldn't want to read a long recruiting post about ATM 2024 recruiting on the ATM 2024 recruiting thread.

Spoiler

They have 3 QB visiting from other parts of the country. 2 3 stars and a 4 star. One of the 3s, Caminong, lives in Seattle and is committed to UW. Why are they on him? The other 3 star is from Massachusetts and is being recruited Michigan State, ATM, and local schools. What are they doing? The 4 star is from Florida and has all the local schools all over him, including FSU. They're going far and wide for scraps or improbables and not finding a ton of interest in-state.

Out of 20 OV/UOVs this weekend, not one of them is a WR or TB. Luke Ferrelli is committed to Arizona as an LB and ATM is on him as a 215 pound TE. 3 star being lightly recruited by any powers. That's the lone offensive skill target visiting this weekend that isn't a QB.

They have 2 LBs visiting, one of whom is committed already. Both are 3 stars and the one that is uncommitted, Lockhart, is in USC's backyard and they're the presumed favorite. Again, what are they doing?

They have 2 OTs visiting. One is President Camacho, who is currently unranked by the services and weighs 265 pounds. There's a decent chance he commits to them. The other guy, Ory Williams, is a 3 star but underranked. LSU has long been considered the favorite on this one, but maybe there's a trick up Fisher's sleeve here. Reuben Owens is this dude's cousin, so if he compares notes favorably for the guy and the NIL is there, maybe they land a good one.

They have 5 IOLs visiting. One is Daniel Cruz, who they're not getting. He's criminally underranked as a 3 star. Aggie Funk is a 4 star who is committed and will be the next great aggie insurance salesman in Katy. Nate Kibble is being courtesy recruited by Texas and LSU because he goes to Atascosita, but neither school would likely take a commit. ATM is on this guy like white on rice. The Ahfua guy from Seattle is of either Pacific Islander or Asian decent and is heavily favored to go to Oregon, who has Adrian Klemm recruiting him. Hmm. Klemm versus Adazzio, I wonder how this will go? Honestly, this guy has to be visiting just to get a price to beat for his Oregon visit. He's going to enjoy the fun and diversity of College Station the way doughboys enjoyed the trenches in WW1. Blake Ivy is a 4 star and every usual suspect recruiting in Texas, including Texas, wants the guy. If they land him and Williams, they could stumble into a surprisingly good OL haul. 

They're bringing in 2 3 star CBs from OOS. I get going OOS for talent, but I don't get going OOS for jaggers that local schools aren't even pushing. Have things gone that far to shit for them at CB recruiting? They've got a a safety, Brandon Jacob, coming in from Florida and he's heavily recruited as a 4 star. Myles Davis from Converse is also an excellent 4 star but he's long been rumored to be leaving the state (USC) and not a likely commit for an in-state program. They're wasting time with these guys.

They have a 4 star ATH (probably a DB in college) from Georgia who doesn't list ATM in his top 5 and is viewed as a FSU vs South Carolina battle. More time wasting.

Finally, they have Omeozulu and Dominick McKinley visiting at E and DT respectively. Omeozulu is overrated and Texas will take him and not be excited about it. If ATM lands him, Texas probably breathes a sigh of relief. McKinley would be a take for all 133 FBS schools, but LSU is heavily favored. Of course, ATM seems to believe that they cannot win without having 27 5 star DLs on their roster at one time, so perhaps they break the bank on him and lock him up with an absurd bag. 

Their roster management looks fucking absurd, and their recruiting focus appears to be actively trying to further exacerbate it. I honestly cannot figure out what in the fuck they are doing, but I do know what they're doing is not going well right now.

BTW, they already have a DL, S, and QB committed. They're overindexed on the roster at both DL and S, they have commits from one more each at the position, and they're all over multiple other targets at both spots. Do they think they're going to sign more than one QB in this class? The 3 they're bringing in don't look any better than the one they have committed. 4 of their 6 current commits are OOS, they're pushing further OOS than they ever have on top of that because of the lack of traction inside of Texas. Of the in-Texas commits, one is a legacy and the other is a DL. This shit is comical.

"Overlooked the recruiting staff." Freudian slips are a real motherfucker.

Also, someone should tell them that it is currently 2023, and Kevin Mashack has been a part of the staff for, oh, half a fucking year at this point. 

Is AggiesToday the account that is literally run by the 17 year old kid that got rejected from aTm? Because that explains a lot.

Also, firing your recruiting coordinator halfway through a recruiting cycle. A) What could go wrong B) Man, that really speaks to how well the staff feels their chances are with their targets. It's rare you see a situation what aTm fans have to be crossing their fingers that Mashack has a drug or alcohol problem, or tried to Baylor a co-ed, yet here we are...

Just to add on to this from @closetojumping the DL commit has deleted all things aggy on his Twitter, is taking an OV to TCU this weekend, just recently visited Florida, and is retweeting/liking everything Gator these days.  His cover photo is also him in the Flordia gear.

4-Star Freshman transferring from Kentucky. Had 0 receptions in 2 games, before redshirting. 

He took 2nd in the SEC indoor 60m this year. He's undersized and possibly more of a track star than a WR. Unclear if he'll have to sit a year since he's transferring within the SEC.

Gerry mentioned today he is kinda perplexed as to why aggy is recruiting so poorly in state this cycle. He said they are doing much better with the out of state kids they are bringing in.

When you're running a con, you can't continue to hit the same area or word gets around.

If you hit new, less exposed areas, you'll have more success grifting targets who don't know any better.

You have your pick of the following options:

The John King effect?

image.thumb.png.0a728e6ca6e57c5bba9a7cec41b8ae9d.png

TXHSFB finally growing a spine and burning a coach for doing most of his recruiting out of state? Remember how much shit Charlie Strong got for OOS offers - not takes - offers!

More coaches have talked to this guy every year?

image.thumb.png.6357aa668d872df26be9d47c91711930.png

Lack of development of players basically across the board?

Their coaching collection of assholes finally coming home to roost?

Their ancient offensive scheme that's outclassed by most TXHSFB programs?

Bobby Petrino already wearing out his welcome and starting the year with one foot our the door?

Negative recruiting around DJ Durkin and the utter failure of A&M at DB and LB over the last few years?

An OL coach who leaves the campus to recruit about as much as The Chief did?

Negative recruiting at most of the big programs (you think North Shore has positive feedback for them anymore?)

The mass exodus of players telling their coaches and everyone else why they left and how much of a dumpster fire the program is?

Their amazing mismanagement of the QB position over the last decade?

The utter lack of track record Jimbo has at putting WR into the league, or not using blue chip WRs?

A lack of a NIL program?

Everyone under the sun negative recruiting them on all of the above?

Then you have a guy with a history of being useless as a coach in Craig, multiple nepotism hires on the analyst side, a guy whose role is just to recruit interior DL and BBQ in Terry Price and that leaves you like two positions that are useful.

Oh yeah and they took a couple of FCS guys, one year eligible guys who shouldn't ever see the field, some Charles Wright level QB who has three years of eligibility, two players transferred from Rice, two LBS in the last class who have about as much chance of being successful in the SEC as I do, so so so many cubes at OL. Marry that with an offensive scheme that's basically archaic at this point and a defensive scheme that can't get their best plays consistently on the field and you have this situation they are in. 

Players, families, coaches, trainers, casual fans and everyone else invoked with football outside of the A&M bubble realizing they have an asshole head coach, asshole defense coordinator, asshole offensive coordinator, an all time asshole of an offensive line coach (mix in some light racism there too) and an asshole cosch at whatever position they plugged in James Coley into this year?

...and guess what? it ain't getting any better anytime soon in state.

Yeah they keep mentioning how all the recruits just LOVE Addazio. 😂 I think they’re trying to make fetch happen. 
 

Wonder if Ory Williams knows Addazio likes to talk down to black people.

Well, apparently he refers to his OLB/DEs as bucks. In 2023.

They are about to land a bunch of 3*'s and Looch, Howell, Perroni, ect are going to convince those boards that they are criminally underrated by the BOMC services.

He may very well be forced to publish a Looch 44 this year.  It's an easy way to try and control the narrative around the ratings.

His hilights look good. Big guy. Completes long passes. I don't know what he looks like play-to-play.

He'll spend a year under Weigman who is the true savior. When Wegs gets his Heisman after the natty when our 2022 class is seasoned, he can just hand over the offense to Paul Bunyan Football!

Or Weigman ends up under the bus and this guy is the One.

You just have to laugh at Jimbo "QB Whisperer" taking 2 JAGs in one class.

Dude is just completely checked out. Sign a few jags early and then not worry about recruiting and sit on your ass and collect checks.

As long as he is signing somebody, he can’t be fired for cause of not recruiting.

I have always thought that Looch was the master of taking aggie money, but Jimbo is in an entirely different stratosphere. 
 

The shit show of this season between Jimbo and Petrino, and Jimbo and the aggie press, and Jimbo and the fans is going to be something to behold.
