That thread is Exhibit A why Aggies are hilarious 

First post 

Quote

Why are we striking out on the better QB's this cycle?

Someone provides a plausible excuse but still an excuse 

Quote

Probably because we have two sophomores, a junior and two freshmen would be my guess. No upper classmen leaving. QB's today don;t want to hold a clipboard for a year or two to learn the system. They want to play right away.

Then Aggy gonna Aggy

Quote

Who have we struck out on?

Quote

We haven’t struck out on anyone. It’s May so early in the process, even when considering the early signing day. This staff is evaluating lots of options. They have the ability to sign elite level kids at all areas on the field. Just sit back and relax.

 

Ignoring the fact that they have offered 11 QBs, and 7 have committed elsewhere.

I'm not convinced Hookfin is going to pan out.  The reason I feel this way is because I've spent most of my life in the weight room and I can tell when someone is going to be a hard gainer, and he fit

He's actually #1, it's just taking him a while to get there.

He seems to be appropriately paid. aggy D is currently top 20 in only his first year and they’ve got some good players coming in. He’s solely responsible for stealing Brian Williams from us.

Um, no, not for QBs it's not.  There are no "elite" QBs left on the table, with the possible exception of Gunnell (who is almost definitely going to sign with Rumlin). They all sign early, so they can help recruit a team to go around themselves.

And wait until they get absolutely abused by the big boys this season and the Jimbo  shine comes off immediately and their recruiting in general goes downhill. Clemson and Bama are going to prison rape them. It’s going to be disgusting.

Their depth chart argument is laughable because 

1. Starkel Motion’s other nickname is Pick 6

2. Kellon Mond upside is he can’t complete a pick 6 

3. Blumrick - all district

4. James Foster - True Freshman 

 

They also appear to be counting a preferred walk on as reason to scare away top QB recruits

Murderers Row. At least they'll play behind a great offensive line.

QUARTERBACK

This is obviously the biggest question mark out of any position. The Aggies have been evaluating several prospects and have sent out a few offers recently.

Zach Calzada out of Georgia may or may not camp at A&M one of the next two weekends and he also does not have the escapability of the other quarterback targets so it will be interesting to see what Jimbo Fisher thinks if he does come and throw. Though he’s open, a lot of people think he will end up at Northwestern, though.

Former commit Grant Gunnell is supposed to come up for the day sometime soon but it looks like it will be Arizona with him, though LSU will likely get an official visit in June.

Michael Johnson Jr. out of Oregon likes the fact that Fisher was the first to offer him, doing so when he was a freshman and Fisher was at Florida State. However, as of now, Miami is definitely the team to beat.

A&M recently offered Lance LeGendre out of New Orleans. Though an LSU offer would likely sway him, he committed to Kansas early over a bunch of other offers. His former head coach is on staff there and they also have several former Warren Easton players in Lawrence too.

That leaves Jayden Daniels as the big uncommitted target that seems the most likely. While most are expecting him to end up at UCLA, there is a big question as to what will happen if Shae Suiaunoafrom Clear Lake commits to the Bruins while on his official visit that starts June 4. Will they take two quarterbacks? If so, that could cause Suiaunoa to end up back on the market. Whichever of the two does not end up at UCLA, A&M at least has a decent shot with.

The Aggies have also at least looked at Peter Parrishin Mississippi and Coltin Clack of Texas High as well. It would not be a shock to see them give Maverick McIvor of San Angelo Central a look as well. Terrance Gipson of Spring Westfield is always an intriguing option as well. He’s an incredible athlete with a really strong arm and, at least in my opinion, is criminally under-recruited. Chris Herron of Langham Creek has improved as a passer a bit but he still seems like a likely ‘athlete’ in college, though.

RUNNING BACK

How many will A&M sign after inking four in the class of 2018? Charles Strong and Vernon Jackson are likely fullbacks, so that trims the number down a bit.

Isaiah Spiller is an A&M/Michigan/Oklahoma battle with the Aggies and the Sooners a little out front. He wants to see what the run game looks like this year and also what the depth chart looks like with all the new arrivals. An Aggie legacy, his family would definitely like to see him in College Station, but they are not pushing anything on him. I think, if the Aggies continue on him hard and run the ball decently this season, there’s a good chance he ends up in Maroon and White.

Amarillo Tascosa’s King Doerue is sort of tough to read but I think it’s honestly because he doesn’t know what he is going to do or who leads, either. Tascosa has not had a ton of prospects so the recruiting process is a bit unfamiliar to everybody involved. Doerue is not in any hurry but he likes A&M, Ole Miss, TCU and Texas Tech.

The other main target would be Deondrick Glass but, like most Katy players, he is not likely to decide early at all and he has also played things very close to the vest. He has A&M in his top 10 and made it into town for the Super Bowl Sunday event but he could do almost anything at this point.

It was obviously huge for A&M to get four-star Eric Gray out of Memphis in for a visit last week and you can bet the Aggies are working to get him back for an official. He’s likely to end up in the SEC but A&M will have to fight off some other schools that have long recruited Memphis more heavily than the Aggies.

WIDE RECEIVER/TIGHT END

A&M has three receiver commits in Kam Brown, Kenyon Jackson and Chase Lane with all three being solid in their pledges. That does not leave room for many more.

The Aggies are looking for both size and speed and West Mesquite’s Dylan Wright fits both pretty well. After his recent unofficial visit, the Aggies are in much better shape than they were previously. A&M is a very real contender with him but Wright is likely to let things play out for a while. This will be the biggest one to follow for sure.

The Aggies are still after Nnamdi Adim-Madumerefrom Fort Worth Southwest as well but a mid-June visit to Alabama could be one to watch for him. If he comes back uncommitted, that bodes well for A&M but the Tide are a team to watch there.

A&M is also still after Elijah Higgins of Austin Bowie but Stanford has the momentum with him at the moment.

Both Tamauzia Brown of Newton and Keontae Burnsof Pittsburg say they were offered by A&M at receiver. Burns is definitely very interested in the Aggies and will be one to watch.

At tight end, A&M has its absolute No. 1 target committed in Baylor Cupp from Brock. The Aggies absolutely love him. The only other real target at the moment is Jalen Wydermyer of Dickinson but he does not plan to decide anytime soon. He likes both A&M and Miami but has been picking up a lot of new offers as of late. Will A&M push down the stretch? That will likely depend on what the numbers look like.

OFFENSIVE LINE

Though some other schools are making things interesting and making strong runs at him, five-star tackle Kenyon Green is still a very heavy Aggie lean. I expect him to take a few official visits and then commit to A&M at some point not too far off.

A&M is also in good shape with Houston North Forest tackle Javonne Shepherd. Alabama and Texas are the other two main competitors and he is definitely enamored with the Tide as well. Alabama really likes him but they have a couple commits and are in on a number of other very highly-ranked linemen. I think he eventually joins his friend Green in Aggieland.

On a recent unofficial visit, A&M made a huge impression on the Pensacola duo of tackle Adrian Medley and guard Hunter Rayburn. Rayburn especially has been adding a ton of offers recently, including one from Alabama last week. However, A&M is the only official visit they have set up as they are set to be in town on June 8. People in Florida continue to mention the Aggies as a very, very serious player with the duo and it would not be at all surprising to see them both end up at A&M. They are both set to graduate and enroll early.

Crandall’s Branson Bragg is a big target on the interior but the Aggies are a bit behind Texas and Stanford at the moment. Wellington tackle Trevor Roberson is high on A&M, Arkansas and Texas Tech and I just get the feeling he will end up elsewhere. I honestly have no clue what Hallsville tackle Blake Trainor will do or if there would be room for him at A&M. The Aggies were his first Power Five offer but he has since added Arkansas and Missouri.

DEFENSIVE LINE

A&M has commitments from end/tackle swing DeMarvin Leal, end Braedon Mowry and tackle Josh Ellison. However, there is still a need for several others, even if RJ Orebo eventually ends up on the line and not at linebacker.

Leal took an official visit to Texas after committing to the Aggies and could possibly set one up to Alabama. However, A&M is not worried about losing him.

Though he does not have a timeline, A&M is still in very good shape for Katy Mayde Creek defensive end Marcus Stripling. He wants to take a few visits but he’s still likely to be an Aggie.

A&M is also in very good shape with another Katy ISD product in Seven Lakes end David Ugwoegbu. The 6-foot-4.5, 225-pound defender could potentially be a 3-4 OLB but is also a prototypical 4-3 rush end.

At tackle, Gio Paez out of North Carolina still plans to set up an A&M official visit. He has seen several new offers as of late but he has very real interest in the Aggies. He would currently considered the best shot of the out-of-state targets.

A&M will try and steal ad out-of-state player like Jaquaze Sorrells from Florida or Jason Blissett from New York but it is an uphill battle with those and the others at this point.

LINEBACKER

A&M has Orebo committed as a linebacker and the Aggies love his length and athleticism at the position. They think they got an absolute steal in the 6-foot-6, 210-pound defender.

The other commit is Andre White Jr. out of Pennsylvania. Thought to be virtually a Penn State lock, his commitment seemingly came out of nowhere when he did so a couple hours after arriving on an unofficial visit. A&M is going to have to fight to hold on to him but he has been very vocal publicly about the Aggies.

Katy Cinco Ranch’s David Gbenda and Beaumont United’s Tyrone Brown are the two in-state targets. The former looks to have A&M a bit behind the other schools while the latter, who just decommitted from Baylor, is very high on the Aggies. Whether he would still be a take is a question we don’t currently have an answer to, though.

Five-star Nakobe Dean out of Mississippi has been mentioned several times lately. He is going to be a very tough pull but he has very real interest in the Aggies. He has ties to Dickey as Horn Lake is just outside Memphis. Dean plans to visit A&M and will give the Aggies every opportunity.

A&M just offered Tarian Lee Jr. out of Tallahassee and the 6-foot-2, 203-pound junior seems like a good fit for the Rover spot. Look for him to visit A&M at some point.

Though junior college linebacker Lakia Henry recently committed to Tennessee, he plans to still use his official visits this fall. A&M will likely get one but Alabama is probably the biggest threat to the Vols at this point.

Christian Harris out of Baton Rouge is still open to A&M and will visit soon but LSU and Alabama are going to be very tough to beat there. LSU pledge Zach Edwards out of Mississippi is still planning to visit A&M and loves Bradley Dale Peveto, so he could be a flip candidate. Kevon Glenn out of Georgia has a ton of offers but he likes A&M as a team and wants to see how the academics are. It wouldn’t be a shock to see him visit.

DEFENSIVE BACK

A&M has two safeties committed in five-star Brian Williams and four-star Demani Richardson and are likely done at that spot.

At cornerback, both Bobby Wolfe of Houston Madison and Marcus Banks of Spring Dekaney plan to announce in late June or early July and both are expected to commit to A&M. The Aggies are also in very good shape with Fort Bend Bush four-star Erick Young, but will have to weather a USC official visit. I still believe he will end up at A&M as well, though.

Those three would be a very, very good haul but adding Jeffery Carter of Aledo would make it even better. I still think that, if he committed today, it would be to Oregon. However, he was high on A&M for a very long time and the Aggies are still a very legitimate contender with him.

Tyrone Lewis of Louisiana has talked about visiting but it will be interesting to see how the Aggies play that recruitment. Marquez Beason would be a take but everyone around him still expects him to sign with Illinois no matter what.

KICKER

A&M has Caden Davis committed and he is 100-percent solid. He will enroll in January

A&M is also still after Elijah Higgins of Austin Bowie but Stanford has the momentum with him at the moment.

Both Tamauzia Brown of Newton and Keontae Burnsof Pittsburg say they were offered by A&M at receiver. Burns is definitely very interested in the Aggies and will be one to watch.

At tight end, A&M has its absolute No. 1 target committed in Baylor Cupp from Brock. The Aggies absolutely love him. The only other real target at the moment is Jalen Wydermyer of Dickinson but he does not plan to decide anytime soon. He likes both A&M and Miami but has been picking up a lot of new offers as of late. Will A&M push down the stretch? That will likely depend on what the numbers look like.

OFFENSIVE LINE

Though some other schools are making things interesting and making strong runs at him, five-star tackle Kenyon Green is still a very heavy Aggie lean. I expect him to take a few official visits and then commit to A&M at some point not too far off.

A&M is also in good shape with Houston North Forest tackle Javonne Shepherd. Alabama and Texas are the other two main competitors and he is definitely enamored with the Tide as well. Alabama really likes him but they have a couple commits and are in on a number of other very highly-ranked linemen. I think he eventually joins his friend Green in Aggieland.

On a recent unofficial visit, A&M made a huge impression on the Pensacola duo of tackle Adrian Medley and guard Hunter Rayburn. Rayburn especially has been adding a ton of offers recently, including one from Alabama last week. However, A&M is the only official visit they have set up as they are set to be in town on June 8. People in Florida continue to mention the Aggies as a very, very serious player with the duo and it would not be at all surprising to see them both end up at A&M. They are both set to graduate and enroll early.

Crandall’s Branson Bragg is a big target on the interior but the Aggies are a bit behind Texas and Stanford at the moment. Wellington tackle Trevor Roberson is high on A&M, Arkansas and Texas Tech and I just get the feeling he will end up elsewhere. I honestly have no clue what Hallsville tackle Blake Trainor will do or if there would be room for him at A&M. The Aggies were his first Power Five offer but he has since added Arkansas and Missouri.

DEFENSIVE LINE

A&M has commitments from end/tackle swing DeMarvin Leal, end Braedon Mowry and tackle Josh Ellison. However, there is still a need for several others, even if RJ Orebo eventually ends up on the line and not at linebacker.

Leal took an official visit to Texas after committing to the Aggies and could possibly set one up to Alabama. However, A&M is not worried about losing him.

Though he does not have a timeline, A&M is still in very good shape for Katy Mayde Creek defensive end Marcus Stripling. He wants to take a few visits but he’s still likely to be an Aggie.

A&M is also in very good shape with another Katy ISD product in Seven Lakes end David Ugwoegbu. The 6-foot-4.5, 225-pound defender could potentially be a 3-4 OLB but is also a prototypical 4-3 rush end.

At tackle, Gio Paez out of North Carolina still plans to set up an A&M official visit. He has seen several new offers as of late but he has very real interest in the Aggies. He would currently considered the best shot of the out-of-state targets.

A&M will try and steal ad out-of-state player like Jaquaze Sorrells from Florida or Jason Blissett from New York but it is an uphill battle with those and the others at this point.

LINEBACKER

A&M has Orebo committed as a linebacker and the Aggies love his length and athleticism at the position. They think they got an absolute steal in the 6-foot-6, 210-pound defender.

The other commit is Andre White Jr. out of Pennsylvania. Thought to be virtually a Penn State lock, his commitment seemingly came out of nowhere when he did so a couple hours after arriving on an unofficial visit. A&M is going to have to fight to hold on to him but he has been very vocal publicly about the Aggies.

Katy Cinco Ranch’s David Gbenda and Beaumont United’s Tyrone Brown are the two in-state targets. The former looks to have A&M a bit behind the other schools while the latter, who just decommitted from Baylor, is very high on the Aggies. Whether he would still be a take is a question we don’t currently have an answer to, though.

Five-star Nakobe Dean out of Mississippi has been mentioned several times lately. He is going to be a very tough pull but he has very real interest in the Aggies. He has ties to Dickey as Horn Lake is just outside Memphis. Dean plans to visit A&M and will give the Aggies every opportunity.

A&M just offered Tarian Lee Jr. out of Tallahassee and the 6-foot-2, 203-pound junior seems like a good fit for the Rover spot. Look for him to visit A&M at some point.

Though junior college linebacker Lakia Henry recently committed to Tennessee, he plans to still use his official visits this fall. A&M will likely get one but Alabama is probably the biggest threat to the Vols at this point.

Christian Harris out of Baton Rouge is still open to A&M and will visit soon but LSU and Alabama are going to be very tough to beat there. LSU pledge Zach Edwards out of Mississippi is still planning to visit A&M and loves Bradley Dale Peveto, so he could be a flip candidate. Kevon Glenn out of Georgia has a ton of offers but he likes A&M as a team and wants to see how the academics are. It wouldn’t be a shock to see him visit.

DEFENSIVE BACK

A&M has two safeties committed in five-star Brian Williams and four-star Demani Richardson and are likely done at that spot.

At cornerback, both Bobby Wolfe of Houston Madison and Marcus Banks of Spring Dekaney plan to announce in late June or early July and both are expected to commit to A&M. The Aggies are also in very good shape with Fort Bend Bush four-star Erick Young, but will have to weather a USC official visit. I still believe he will end up at A&M as well, though.

Those three would be a very, very good haul but adding Jeffery Carter of Aledo would make it even better. I still think that, if he committed today, it would be to Oregon. However, he was high on A&M for a very long time and the Aggies are still a very legitimate contender with him.

Tyrone Lewis of Louisiana has talked about visiting but it will be interesting to see how the Aggies play that recruitment. Marquez Beason would be a take but everyone around him still expects him to sign with Illinois no matter what.

KICKER

A&M has Caden Davis committed and he is 100-percent solid. He will enroll in January

"Crandall’s Branson Bragg is a big target on the interior but the Aggies are a bit behind Texas and Stanford at the moment."

Anytime you see Perroni acknowledge Texas as ahead of A&M for a recruit, you know we're in a very good spot.

I expect ATM to find some sort of mysterious big win at the QB spot in this class, not unlike Foster in the last class. They're not going to be shutout at QB in this cycle. Now that Gunnell is making it clear that he's gone, they're going to have to find someone whose language they can speak. Circumstances don't seem favorable for that in-state this cycle, so I wonder who in the southeast is going to be the target?

He truly has taken bathroom smurf's spot as lead propaganda minister for the aggy braindead.  You always knew when we were getting a kid when Hamm gave us the slightest modicum of positive news.  You could take it to the bank.

That doesn't look like the guaranteed #1 or #2 class the ags were promised.  Maybe I'm biased?

Once you've convinced yourself that Tyler Johnson's 5th star is a miscarriage of justice and that RJ Orebo is a locked-in 4 star in disguise, all things are possible.

I have no doubt they'll find a way to claim their class was #1 or #2 regardless of where they end up in any rankings.

Last year's entire #3 recruiting class says hello

EJ's clearly being a huge homer considering this is what Perroni said about Gbenda literally this morning. You ags sure are sharp.

Right, that smu chola hates aggie more though. I guess that is good since he is paid to cover us. I just want a fight between Hamm and EJ where they both end up with Foreign Accent Syndrome.

I love aggy projection. There's a reason that aggy thinks every recruiting loss is due to cheating by other schools. Perroni tells them just about everyone is leaning aggy.

We only talk cheating when a guy goes from 0 to aggy in one day or when our staff shies away from recruiting certain highly ranked players.

sooo one week before the "heat wave" pool party recruiting weekend in Austin???  I'm guessing some aggy coach will be putting a revolver to Kenyon Green's temple that weekend telling him to commit.  Equally likely is Gunnel  being "sick" or "losing his ride" to college station the day before.

 Let's take a look at QB's in this cycle that might "speak their language"

Zach Calzada - #19 PRO QB - 

Grant Gunnell - #2 PRO QB - 

Michael Johnson Jr. - #4 DUAL QB - 

Lance LeGendre -  #6 DUAL QB - Kansas

Jayden Daniels -  #2 DUAL QB - 

Shae Suiaunoa - 

Peter Parrish - #9 DUAL QB - 

Maverick McIvor - #20 DUAL QB -  

Jacob Zeno - #14 PRO QB  - Baylor 

Graham Mertz - #5 PRO QB - Wisconsin

Terrance Gipson - #19 DUAL QB - He'd jump at any offer

I was trying to idendify recruits who might be open to monetary persuasion. 

Someone like Gunnell might not care about open pockets as others would

aggy is not the one to worry about here, it is tree.
