Texas has sent guys to the league. Just not in the higher rounds.

Counterpoint; La Tech and Fresno st have sent guys to the league, just not in the higher rounds. Meanwhile schools like South Dakota and Buffalo and all kinds of trash schools have sent guys I higher rounds*

*fun fact, I made all of that up right out of my ass and I feel like there’s a better than 50% shot it’s accurate.

It's definitely below the standard Texas should be setting.  Herman should win this year with an experienced team and depth at every position.  It's difficult to see how the defense can't improve just by running basic concepts.  The expectation should be to win the Big 12 this year.

it’s pretty unbelievable.  I think other places must just not be as fun so the kids spend more time training because there isn’t shit else to do.  there’s always fun to be had somewhere in austin.  or we’re just recruiting soft kids.  or the coaches are soft.  or it’s bad luck.  but it’s fucking unbelievable and it herman has to fucking fix it.

But somehow that’s good for aggy who...doesn’t send kids to the league.

You put the receipts in front of recruits that show A&M with 18 kids drafted in the first three rounds the past 10 drafts, while Texas has had six, and it seems significant enough to them. 

That's only two less than Oklahoma in the same period.

247's explanation for dropping Vaka.  Should fit right in on that DL.

Junior film did not pop off the screen. Overweight and not as explosive or mobile as the other four-star defensive tackles,"

Vaka is the one who was a 4 star, yet didn't hold an offer from any P5 in CA right?

 

Expand  

None in CA and while he reports offers from a few Pac XII teams, it's highly unlikely they were committable. Looks like he still plans to take his Oregon and Michigan trips, but maybe 247 just hasn't updated that yet.

Yeah I understand that, but I thought the quote was 5 years? Any school in the country could have gotten Garret and Kirk drafted.  

If the kid is truly worried about what Strong didnt accomplish here, he wasn’t interested anyhow. Head to your football factory and wait 3 years behind a bench of 5*’s ffs. 
 

Fuck OU, aggy, and their draft picks.

You do realize we are recruiting football players, right?

Yeah, that’s great.  It wouldn’t surprise me that Alabama, UGA, tOSU, OU and LSU leading if the league is your #1 factor. But don’t sit here and tell me ATM is on the same plane.  Because they’ve wasted more 4 and 5 stars than anyone in the country.    If dude doesn’t want a thoughtful response, maybe he should quit with the statistics. CTJ called what this recruitment was about a year ago.

It speaks volumes about texags subscribers that Looooochie can openly express utter disdain for some of them and react virulently to even the slightest criticism of his moronic takes, and yet they stick around and keep coming back for more and more.

Liucci has taken the QAnon/Alex Jones/Conspiracy theorist model and applied it to his business practices brilliantly. You criticize and erode the competition so no other source of information is trustworthy. You reinforce your own echo chamber and your personal power within that chamber. And then you've pretty much guaranteed your subscriber base will continue to pay you money. Televangelism at it's finest.

Brian Perroni: A&M offer a big one for 4-star Clear Lake CB Julian Humphrey

  Quote

The defensive back class in the state of Texas for 2022 already has a number of very highly-ranked prospects. Many of the top cornerbacks and safeties in the country hail from the Lone Star State. One of those is Julian Humphrey of Houston Clear Lake. The 6-foot-1, 185-pound defender, who is ranked No. 136 in the first Top247 for the class, picked up a big offer on Wednesday afternoon from Texas A&M and secondary coach TJ Rushing.

"Coach Rushing, he called my coach. Then my coach gave me his number for me to call him," Humphrey said. "That's when he told me they were offering me. It was huge. He said they've been liking me for a minute now. And ever since he saw me the first time he came down to watch me in January, he's been loving me since. He said he just couldn't wait any more to pull the trigger and offer me."

Humphrey has made the trip to Aggieland multiple times before and has come away impressed with what he has seen. "I've been there a couple times," he said. "I went there with Fast Houston, too. I loved it. I love the campus and everything. They gave us a tour of everywhere. They took us to the dorms the players live in and to the weight room. I had never been in the weight room or locker before that day. That was crazy."

In addition to A&M, Humphrey was also offered by USC earlier this week. "USC, coach Donte Williams, he called my coach too since they aren't allowed to call me yet," Humphrey said. "I called him and he gave me the big news. That was another really big one." Humphrey currently holds 15 early offers but that number could be going up soon. "I think Cincinnati is close (to offering)," he said. "They might actually offer me today. Oregon, they could be as well. Clemson has been really interested lately and so has Oklahoma."

Like every other prospect in the country, Humphrey has not been able to take visits during the current dead period. Once it is lifted, though, he has a number of trips in mind. "I'm going to be going to Texas A&M," he said. "I'm also going to be hitting up the Florida Gators, Georgia Tech and Alabama for sure. I'm going to go to other schools, too, but those are the ones for sure."

Though it is still early in the process, Humphrey admits a few of the schools that have offered stand out. "Right now, it's A&M, USC and Baylor," he said. "Arkansas and some others are up there as well. But I'm not close to making a decision or anything." Humphrey, whose older brother John played for Oklahoma, Arizona State and Nevada, was a first-team all-district selection as a sophomore this past season. He recorded 27 tackles, two tackles for loss, an interception, seven pass breakups, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery.

Last minute add of UGA and he can’t drop a top 3 so he includes them...sure I guess “they’re way behind” is one way to look at it. One wildly naive and idiotic way to look at it. Another way to look at it would be something akin to “oh shit they’re paying and there’s now way for them to go from here but up.” 
 

also wasn’t the grimes CB from witfong? But yeah. No one knows shit.

It's hilarious that we just offered this kid and they've been after him for over a year and they are sweating it out against Texas.  Definately will get a "knockout blow" gigem' headline and Looch will claim that Jimbo gets who he wants in the state and Hermansa can't do anything about it.

Look, the haters are out in force as the Aggies are consistently targeted by Texas and the rest of the in-state programs that aren't part of the Southeastern Conference juggernaut. A&M is also targeted by natural recruiting rivals OU and LSU as each program's primary threat in the Lone Star State. Combine that with a media that seems more than willing to take shots at the Aggie head coach because their feelings were hurt that a school like Texas A&M could rip a national championship winner away from a football blueblood like Florida State, and you have the perfect storm working against the Aggies on the recruiting front. The spin and effort that has gone into attempting to undermine A&M's recruiting efforts is pretty remarkable, but all Fisher and his staff have done is sign the No. 3 and No. 6 classes, back-to-back.

The Aggies starting to climb again in 2021, and all I can say is this: Imagine if the Ags were to go out and win ten or more games this fall. It's a nightmare scenario that folks from Tuscaloosa to Austin and all points in between are doing everything in their power to prevent. If Jimbo and Co. continue to stockpile talent like he has been and start increasing the win total in Year Three and beyond, good luck with all that.

Seriously. Any team complaining that covid hurts them most of all (especially one who's bringing OOS recruits to College fucking Station) is just trying to mask deeper flaws.

But sure, you were able to "rip a national championship winner away from Florida State" in the same year he got blown out by Boston College and had made every power broker and admin sick of his shit. OK.

This stuff is pretty unbelievable.  Yeah, I know, Aggies ... but still.  A large number of people actually believe this? 

Quite incredible.
