Some Wednesday afternoon recruiting notes
I've checked in with a pair of sources across the Sabine River on what's going on with Baton Rouge (LA) S Major Burns and his recent departure from the LSU class. This feels like another one that the Tigers have seemingly parted ways with much like they did with Alec Bryant, Jalen Lee, and Lorando Johnson, Jr. In terms of what it means for A&M, that's really hard to call. As many of you know, Burns was once committed to Texas A&M, and, despite flipping from the Aggies to the home state Tigers, has kept in touch with the A&M staff throughout his recruitment. My Louisiana sources did seem rather confident that Major would definitely be interested in once again joining the 2020 Aggie commit class, and one even felt like the kid had already reached out to the Aggie coaching staff. With the A&M numbers crunch and a specific set of needs still out there, it's just too early to figure where/how Burns would fit though. This is all fresh and new so it's a situation we will continue to monitor. - Still waiting on more intel, but I was told Jimbo Fisher's sit down with Donell Harris last night was extensive and productive. As of this afternoon, I still expect Harris to make his way to Aggieland for his official visit this weekend. Apparently, the Florida staff met and decided that they could not pass up a kid with Donell's talent and, thusly, have ramped up their efforts in the last 48 hours. - Bradley Dale Peveto and Mike Elko met with Covington (LA) LB Edgerrin Cooper last night. As I said on the radio/podcast today, if you told me that Cooper will sign with Texas A&M next week, I wouldn't fight you over it. It'd be hard to turn down that type of skill set at a position of need. If the Ags do end up nabbing him and Antonio Doyle to go with Kenneth Phillips down the road, you'd have to say it's been quite a two year haul for the Maroon and White at linebacker. - The reports emanating from the LSU side of things with Zach Evans are similar to what I heard last night. Nothing new though from me in terms of calling this one in favor of either side or even a gut feeling of momentum. Members of the A&M staff will be at the Houston TD Club Awards tonight where Evans is being honored as an offensive finalist.

A few recruiting notes from Saturday's Pylon 7v7
Broken Arrow (OK) Myles Slusher visited Texas A&M a few weeks ago and the Aggies are a school to watch for the Oklahoma talent. He does not have plans to return to College Station at this time but he says he will definitely be back. He has plans to visit Alabama and Oregon coming up.Lancaster 2020 CB Lorando Johnson continues to put the Aggies high on his list but LSU is the school to watch in this one. He plans to visit next week and the Tigers are a team he has always eyed. There has always been a lot of LSU buzz there and that has not changed.Dallas Jesuit 2020 ATH EJ Smith is one of the harder prospects to get a read on. He continues to keep in touch with Texas A&M and he has visited a few times. There is interest. He is keeping things close to his vest but he does have a visit coming up to Stanford.Dallas Bishop Dunne 2020 TE Elijah Yelverton continues to keep in touch with TE coach Joe Jon Finley, and the Aggies let him know they will watch him closely in the spring.

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.

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.”
