I went to school with a blue chip DL who signed with the Aggies back in 1988. His name was Kevin Love from Converse Judson. I see him in the yearbook for a couple of years but I can't find much about his football career here and how it went. I lost track when I joined the Air Force, but now that I'm a grad Ag, and with the recruitment of Leal, I started looking into it. It's hard to Google him because the only thing that comes up is about the basketball player. The guy was a beast for Judson back in the day.

I was in school from 87-91 - I followed the team as close as a person could prior to the internet and public recruiting services and I don't seem to recall him ever making the roster if he ever made it to campus at all.

I'm at the same position as Cuervo. I was a senior in the fall of 88 and followed it pretty close. I don't remember that name

I was able to find out that he did make it to campus as he's in the team photos in the 89 & 90 (I believe) yearbooks. Perhaps his health or potential didn't hold up.

From the 1989 A&M Football Media Guide he is listed on the Preseason Depth Chart as a Nose Guard w/ Pat Henry.
He was #91 listed at 6-3 323, Fr-RS.
He is not listed in the 1990 Media Guide.

It was after my time, but I think he transferred to UCLA, and started playing basketball...

I was there those years too and don't remember, but I've slept a few days since then.

However, if you follow even guys that played, it's amazing how few of them make a professional career enough to retire on. For all the talk of college football being the NFL farm system (which it is) the vast majority of college players will still wind up using their degree for their primary career in life.

I went to Cy-Creek and started at A&M in 88. Only Kevin Love I rember was a year younger than me who played running back and went on to play at SMU.

Correct. I guess he was there in 1990 long enough to make the photo. I see him in the 1989 and 1990 Yearbook. Well, I see him listed anyway. Hard to tell who is who in those team photos from back then.
