Looks like aggy is going to get some spring visits from Florida kids.  Coley already delivering the bags.

One is Terrion Arnold, a Tallahassee kid that will be very tough for them to land. Bama and FSU very high on this kid.

199 months

After signing one of the top defensive line classes in the country in 2020, Texas A&M could end up with an even better group in 2021.

The Aggies are in good shape with quite a few prospects, both in the state of Texas and nationally.

Though new names will likely emerge during the spring evaluation period, here is where things currently stand with the top targets.

VERY GOOD SHOTS WITH

Texarkana Pleasant Grove DE Landon Jackson: A&M was the first to offer the 6-foot-6, 240-pound defender and his dad is a former walkon basketball player for the Aggies. Texas is trying to make things interesting, but A&M is in good shape. He will officially visit the weekend of the spring game. LSU will also get an official visit in May and Alabama will likely receive one, too, in addition to the Longhorns at some point. Still, though, the Aggies are in very good shape here.

Texarkana Pleasant Grove DE Marcus Burris: A teammate of Jackson’s, the 6-foot-4, 262-pound four-star defender might be even higher on A&M than his teammate is. Burris could potentially end up inside but, at the moment, is being recruited as an end. He is the best bet of any of the highly-ranked prospects to end up an Aggie.

Port Arthur Memorial DE Jordon Thomas: A&M has not always had a ton of success in the Golden Triangle but the four-star defender has long listed the Aggies as his top school. However, a recent Junior Day visit to Austin put Texas up there as well. This will be an A&M-Texas battle with Thomas planning to visit Aggieland a couple more times this spring and summer. The 6-foot-3, 240-pound defender missed almost all of this past season with an injury, so that is at leasy somewhat of a concern, but he should be fine going forward.

GOOD SHOTS WITH

IMG Academy DE Tunmise Adeleye: After transferring from Katy Tompkins, the 6-foot-3 defender has trimmed down to 240 pounds and has turned himself into more of an edge rusher. That is a scary thought for opposing offensive linemen. Though some other schools have gotten into the mix since his transfer, such as Florida, the national top-50 prospect is still highest on A&M, Alabama and Ohio State. He will be at A&M for an unofficial visit the weekend of the spring game. Adeleye plans to announce his decision on Aug. 1.

Philadelphia (Pa.) Northeast DE Elijah Jeudy: Texas A&M was one of the first schools to offer the 6-foot-3, 233-pound four-star defender. Also, being from Philadelphia, he has developed a strong bond with Elijah Robinson, who is from just across the bridge in Camden. Jeudy has been to A&M before and will be back for an unofficial at the end of this month. Penn State is going to provide major competition, as are Alabama, Georgia and LSU. But, the Aggies have positioned themselves well with the No. 170 overall prospect.

Oradell (N.J.) Bergen Catholic DT Tywone Malone: The Aggies had a lot of success in South Jersey in the class of 2020 and will look to do the same in the north of the state this cycle. The 6-foot-3.5, 300-pound defensive tackle unofficially visited Aggieland during the season this past year and has A&M as one of his top schools. He, too, has built a very solid relationship with Robinson. Penn State also is in good shape there while some of the other Big 10 schools have recruited the area well.

Fort Washington (Md.) National Christian Academy DE Monkell Goodwine: The 6-foot-4, 260-pound junior could end up as a defensive tackle as well. Ranked as the nation’s No. 114 overall prospect, he was blown away by an unofficial visit to A&M in the fall. He also has a former teammate, Joshuah Moten, on the roster in College Station. Much of the SEC is after him and will make this a tough battle, but he is a fan of the Aggies for sure.

VERY MUCH IN THE MIX

DeSoto DE Shemar Turner: The 6-foot-3.5, 260-pound defender was outstanding at A&M’s camp this past summer. He then went out and had a dominant junior season. Turner is interested in the Aggies but has a ton of suitors as well. A recent unofficial visit to Alabama before the dead period went very well and the Tide are in good shape if they push. Other than that, he is pretty open at this point.

Houma (La.) Terrebonne DT Maason Smith: The five-star prospect is interested in A&M, as evidenced by multiple unofficial visits already. However, getting a highly-rated defender out of the state of Louisiana is very, very tough. The 6-foot-5, 316-pounder is someone the Aggies will continue to recruit heavily, but LSU is not going to let him go easily. Alabama is also very involved with him.

Mansfield Legacy DE David Abiara: The 6-foot-4, 248-pound defender is a newer name to emerge, not just on A&M’s radar but that of several other schools as well. His sister goes to A&M, so that helps with the familiarity, but both Notre Dame and Oklahoma feel very good about their chances, especially the former.

Westlake Village (Calif.) Westlake DT Victory Vaka: Just like a number of others on this list, the 6-foot-3, 315-pound Vaka is high on A&M because of his relationship with Robinson. The nation’s No. 200 overall prospect, he has never been to A&M. That will change, though, as he has an unofficial visit scheduled for early May. Vaka has officials scheduled for Florida, Michigan and Oregon already, so A&M will have to work to get one of the final two. He does not plan to announce until the Early Signing Day and will then enroll early.

Others still looking at A&M: Gaithersburg (Md.) Quince Orchard DT Marcus Bradley; Vero Beach, Fla. DE Keanu Koht; New Orleans (La.) St. Augustine DE Byron Turner Jr.

...but at the moment we will lie through our teeth to him that he'll be an outside edge rusher.  As we do.

The Mississippi State game is definately lining up to be right on par with the rollercoaster this year.  1st game in October, aggy is probably 4-0 with Looch and company talking playoffs and rolling into Bama' at 10-0.

In addition to Costello, Leech has also landed a grad transfer OT from Bama' ( didn't start, but looks like he was 1st off the bench this past year) to add to 3 returning starters on the OL + a grad transfer WR.  Kylinn Hill and Eroll Thompson both orginally declared for the NFL draft, then withdrew.

They also have 4 EE JUCO's including 2 top 10 ( a DE and WR ) plus another DL and LB.

Game is also @ Mississippi State and will probably be sold out with every person having a cowbell.  Add to this that Mond is a dud on the road, and the pirate is sure to cause some tears.

Perroni has an article up saying a ton of high rated Florida kids are visiting this weekend.  Coley about to hand out a room full of money bags.

I saw that article. They're trying to spin up the base because all of those kids Perroni listed are going to be longshots for Aggy.

offseason update by Tarp ::

You’re not going to learn much from observing workouts that don’t directly involve football related activities. For example, no one at the fourth quarter workout that some of us were allowed to observe at Texas A&M on Monday got to see any of the quarterbacks throw a football. It’s about developing the players into better athletes so that they’ll be able to do those things at a higher level. In addition, the drills were outdoors and we were allowed to observe just a few rotations before leaving so there was no way to see everyone.

Even so, there were a few things that stood out. There’s no particular order to the following.

Among the quarterbacks, I was surprised at how much bigger Zach Calzada has gotten. I don’t know how that will relate to success on the field except that he’s much better equipped to take a hit than he was last year. There’s reasons that college players are often far different players in their second seasons on campus and time in the weight room and with a different nutrition regimen makes a difference.

We all tend to overestimate what freshmen can do and Longview quarterback Haynes King needs time to continue to fill out. This will not only make him more durable but also allow him to generate more velocity on his throws and in the process allow him to have a delivery that’s more consistent.

I watched two drills involving offensive lineman Kenyon Green. I don’t know what else to say except that there’s him and then there’s everyone else in that position group. He moves more effortlessly and finished drills faster. On a drill involving footspeed where he jumped on four different spots, he was relatively fluid. He nearly ran over someone on a drill where players ran around a hoop to emphasize not just get off but bend. He is really different.

Linebacker Buddy Johnson is by far the most bulked up and defined among the linebacker corps. He’s been on campus three years, he’s worked very hard, and it shows relative to most of the group that has just one season in Aggieland. He moved quicker out of his stance than anyone else as well.

Linebacker Anthony Hines doesn’t have the frame to be as physically imposing as Johnson. However, he moves well and he looks far more defined than at any point of his A&M career.

I know that Jared Hocker got a lot of grief for his play at times last season but he displayed better feet and bend during his time out there than most of the other offensive linemen.

JFC that update really lacked sunshine for aggy standards. They were really reaching just to find anything positivity to say.
