My personal opinions:
Thank you for your patience; this post contains only true facts and numbers, that as an Ag, would still be immediately wipped off if I posted on an Ag blog?
Well, we dragged another A&M scholarship across Texas, and got another commit without four or five stars beside his name.
That makes 6 now, not even yet in the top 250 for 09, that we've already committed? CONTACT $Bill and Sherman again, and tell them, that as far behind as we are in the Big 12, just to stop with committing the no star football players today ! We need top talent or walkons, period.
Bama' with a similar W/L record to A&M the last five years, and their coach fresh from the NFL, signed 3 five star and 19 four star football players in Feb 08.
Then why won't A&M sign a similar class in Feb 09 ?
Is it because A&M has $Bill Byrne as AD, who didn't take his responsibility seriously, and make sure A&M hired a Head Coach and 9 assistants that had previous extensive experience in recruiting top talented four and five star athletes? That's the only thing Bama' did differently in exactly (EXACTLY) the same circumstance!
We suck for not doing it the same way ! It just takes a little work and very little more money to do it the right way. A&M's Head Coach reportedly now is paid less than baylor's, smu's, UT's ou's etc.
When this staff completely blew away the Feb 08 class with four last minute decommits and a fifth head to head last minute loss, A&M lost a class.
Now A&M is already losing its second class in a row. We've lost, mostly head to head, almost ever four and five star athlete we've offered this year to UT, lsu, tulsa university. etc. Even TCU, okie state, and missouri among many others already have gotten off the snide.
Every school gets 85 players, it's the talent that makes the difference as measured by the four and five star athletes that are faster, bigger, and more athletic comming out of high school.
So you won't be surprised, expect the following schools to beat A&M in the next 5 years because of our recruiting now, in addition to the ones that regularily beat A&M almost every year this decade:
!. Arkansas - already has 2 four star athletes committed for 09.
2. Miami- has signed 59 four and five star athletes in the last 5 years. Almost twice as many as A&M.
3. Colorado- beat us recruiting four and five star athletes last year, as well as beat ou on the field, last year.
4. Okie State-beat us recruiting four and five star football players for the last 3 years in a row.
5. Nebraska-beat us recruiting four and five star football players the last 4 years in a row.
6 & 7. Both K. state and Missouri are comming on with them each signing 7 four and five star football players the last 2 years in a row, while A&M only signed 11.
Get a hobby, if you don't want to watch much more A&M losing football this year, and in the future, even worse than it's been this decade so far !
