A few Thursday recruiting notes

My second stop of the day was to Lancaster, and that is one loaded team. The Aggies have not offered anyone yet, but 2020 cornerback Lorando Johnson remains a strong candidate. Coaches Elko and Linguist were among the coaches in attendance today and he was a guy they were keeping a close eye on. I mentioned him earlier this week as the top-rated guy in 2020 yet to receive an offer. That did not change today, but the Aggies are making their interest known. I was told the Aggies are a team he would be interested in if an offer were placed on the table.2021 WRs Majik Rector and Ketron Jackson are another couple to watch. Both already hold FBS offers and Rector arrived for athletic period wearing Texas A&M gear. He visited in the spring and the Aggies are high on his list. Jackson ran a 10.7 100m as an 8th grader and he was offered by Ole Miss yesterday. I bet we see both in College Station this summer.The WRs at Lancaster are flat out loaded and it is home to maybe the state's top 2019 sleeper. 6-3, 175-pound Chris Green has been offered by some FCS programs but he had a few different FBS coaches watching him closely today. He has a lot of length to work with but he's skinny right now. Physically though, he stands out and during drills he ran crisp routes. Lancaster also has a few 2021 guys in the trenches. OL Javirea Moore is already 6-4, 250-pounds with plenty of room to fill out. OL Joseph Amos is even bigger. He's listed at 6-5, 280. He was not at practice today because he was getting a cast removed from his arm. At DT Vernon Henderson is a guy to watch at 6-0, 260.*************The Aggies are going to be busy in DFW today. Elko and Linguist are visiting Dallas Carter, Waxahachie, Duncanville, and Bishop Dunne today in addition to their stop by Lancaster. Carter is home to Branard Wright, Waxahachie is home to Demani Richardson, Bishop Dunne to Brian Williams, Marquez Beason, and Brennon Scott, and Duncanville is home to Chris Thompson and Ja'Quinden Jackson.I also hear the Aggies checked in on Highland Park 2020 DE Prince Dorbah. He has put together quite the spring. This fall he had a strong showing, but I hear he has taken things to a different level in the spring. Consider him firmly on Texas A&M's radar.

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)

Considered one of the best prospects in the nation and a likely difference-maker at the collegiate level. Displays all of the physical skills to be a future All-American with potential to be an early-round NFL draft pick.

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.”
