Destrehan's Michael Young has memorable experience at FNL

Destrehan's Michael Young has memorable experience at FNL
Though he's in no rush to move through the recruiting process, 2017 Destrehan (La.) receiver Michael Young knows one place he'll be strongly considering — Texas A&M, which showed Young a time at Friday Night Lights that he said he "absolutely loved."

The Opening/FNL thoughts
2017 Episcopal DT Marvin Wilson - He was as dominant as you would expect the top player in the country to be Sunday at the Opening Regional. He was also in Aggieland for Friday Night Lights, and he told me he enjoyed getting to talk with new defensive tackles Coach David Turner. A&M still has a long ways to go with Wilson, but getting him back on campus this spring was big for the Aggies. I've been told Marv would like to stay closer to home, but the Aggies need to win a lot of games this fall to make that happen.2017 Episcopal OL Walker Little - I've been calling him the best lineman in the State since I watched him last fall, and he lived up to that this Sunday. Little hasn't showed much interest in the Aggies yet, but he is set to visit in a few weeks. He likes Jim Turner a lot, but again the Ags will need to win some games this fall to be able to land Little. He has a brother and sister at Ole Miss, and is likely leaning that way at this point.2017 Cy Creek OL Grayson Reed - I was a bit surprised that Reed didn't earn an Opening invite on Sunday, as I thought he dominated for much of the day. Reed was in town for Friday Night Lights, and will make a return trip for the spring game this weekend. I still think it's just a matter of time before he adds his name to the Aggie commitment list.North Shore DE K'Lavon Chaisson - While he didn't earn an Opening invite this weekend, Chaisson did show elite speed off the edge. He has a great frame with room still to grow into a top of the line edge rusher. He showed up Sunday decked out in Baylor gear, but LSU will also be a major player. He will trip to Aggieland this weekend for the spring game.Langham Creek RB Toneil Carter - As we noted earlier this week, Carter made his fifth return trip to Aggieland last weekend, and he told me actually came close to committing. Quartney Davis and Kemah Siverand were on him hard this weekend, but he held off and plans to make his decision on his birthday October 3rd. The other schools under consideration are Georgia and LSU, but the Aggies are the favorites to land him.Westlake OL Stephan Zabie - Watching him you wouldn't know he's only played football for one year. He's raw as hell, but is put together as well as any lineman in the state. He may end up being the best of the bunch when you look back after their college careers. OU and A&M top his list right now, and his relationship with Jim Turner should put the Aggies over the top when the time comes when he makes a commitment.Crosby WR Mannie Netherly - The Aggie commit showed up wearing some LSU gloves, and while he's recruiting for the Aggies, he will take visits and play the game throughout the process. The Aggies will have to continue to recruit him as though he's not recruited. LSU is the main threat, but Texas and others will make a run at him as well.Dickinson DB Chris Wilson - He picked up an offer shortly after attending FNL with teammate, and 2018 A&M commit Montel Parker, and showed why he received that offer on Sunday. Wilson has the length that Chavis is looking for in a corner, and displayed great footwork and fluid hips in drills on Sunday. Don't be surprised to see him add his name to the commitment list in the near future.Oklahoma City DE Nick Robinson - The Oklahoma defender attending FNL, but defense may not be the position the Aggies have in mind. Robinson tells me that Jeff Banks has been talking to him about playing TE for the Aggies. As for the visit, Robinson told me he had an amazing time and loved everything about it.Cy Fair OL Austin Deculus - While he plays a little stiff at time, Deculus is a strong as they come. When he gets his hands on you it's over. The Aggies were late to the party on this one, but it wouldn't have matter either way. He's been all LSU for some time, and doesn't have any interest in A&M.Destrehan WR Michael Young - The Louisiana resident that took in FNL, Young had a great time on his visit and spent a lot of time talking with Terry Joseph and Aaron Moorehead. He loved the facilities and the atmosphere on Friday, and also was a big fan of how the Aggies use their slot receivers. Young is still taking things slow at this point, but the Aggies will be contenders for the long haul.2018 Alief Taylor WR Brennan Eagles - Despite not having the fan fair of some of the other wide receivers in attendance, Eagles took home WR MVP honors on Sunday. At 6-3, 205-pounds, he was one of the most impressive receivers physically at the event. Look for his stock to take off in the near future.Waco La Vega TE Kedrick James - The Baylor commit made his second trip to Aggieland this spring, and spent most of Friday night hanging with A&M commits Tate Martell and Roshauud Paul. While he's yet to open things up, I would expect that to happen in the future. The Aggies have made quite the impression on James, and will be the odds on favorite to flip him in the long run.Plano West LB Mohamed Sanogo - This is the second straight Opening Regional the Sanogo has really impressed me. He's a true Mike that has great instincts and a great football mind. He could be a guy after a spring evaluation that the Aggies make a move on. I'm surprised at this point that he doesn't have more offers already.FB Elkins LB Kenneth Murray - Murray was a guy we mentioned last fall while checking out 2018 Elkins commit Luke Matthews, and he impressed again this weekend. He was really good in coverage during one-on-ones and even better in cat-and-mouse drills with the running backs. I would expect his offer list to grow during the spring evaluation period.Pearland DT Jordan Crawford - While he's probably around 5-10 or 5-11, he was one of the quicker defensive tackles in attendance on Sunday. He won most of his one-on-ones, and was fighting for as many reps as he could. He picked up his first offer from Iowa State last week and that list should continue to grow.Plano East LB Anthony Hines - Any time you can get one of the top linebackers in the State for a visit you have to be happy about it. With every visit Hines warms up more to the Aggies and that has a lot to do with John Chavis. Hines is wide open at this point, and the Aggies need to continue to chip away at his recruitment.Temple DE Taquon Graham - One of the top pass rushers in the state, Graham made his first visit to Aggieland on Friday night. While Graham enjoyed the visit the Aggies still trail in his recruitment. I could see him come off of the board soon to the Longhorns. They've been his leader for a while and that hasn't changed.

TexAgs National Average Rating

The TexAgs National Average Rating is a proprietary formula that calculates an industry-wide aggregate rating for each recruiting prospect. The formula includes publicly listed grades, scores, ratings and rankings by national recruiting services, along with a TexAgs rating. Combining the data provides a rating for each prospect, which is then normalized to fit the TexAgs Rating 100-point scale.

The intent of this rating is to provide TexAgs readers with a comprehensive snapshot of how individual prospects rank nationally.

TexAgs Rating

The TexAgs Recruiting team of Billy Liucci, David Sandhop, Jason Howell, Ryan Brauninger and a host of recruiting interns attends more than 75 games each fall and observes and evaluates every major Texas A&M target, as well as most of the top 150 prospects in the State of Texas. From this evaluation the team draws a rating for each prospect on a scale between 70 and 100.

99-100: Elite national prospect (Five-star)

90-98: Elite state prospect (Four-star)

Considered one of the best 30-40 prospects in the state and a top 250 national prospect. Displays the physical skills to be a major early contributor at the collegiate level with high professional potential.

80-89: Quality prospect (Three-star)

Considered one of the best 100 prospects in the state and a top 500 national prospect. Displays the physical skills to develop into a contributor over the course of his college career. Has the ability to become a professional prospect over time with development.

70-79: Solid prospect (Two-star)

Considered one of the top 250 prospects in the state. Has the physical skills to be a potential contributor at a D-1 program over the course of his collegiate career with significant development. Professional potential is low.

Staff Predictions

The predictions represent which school each staff member believes will ultimately sign the recruit, and the confidence meter represents his level of certainty in that outcome.

Example #1

If the predicted school is Texas A&M and confidence is set to “High”, then the staff member is saying “I believe that this recruit will ultimately sign with Texas A&M and I feel very certain about that.”

Example #2

If the predicted school is “Alabama” and confidence is set to “Low,” then the staff member is saying “I believe that this recruit will ultimately sign with Alabama, but I’m not very certain about that.”
