Recruiting Country: The latest recruiting news surrounding the Maroon & White

Key notes from Recruiting Country

  • There’s probably going to be two or three more recruits join the class by July 5th. We anticipated a big summer, and that was before Fadil Diggs
     
  • A&M will have ten to twelve recruits by camp probably. And some are coming out of nowhere like Deondre Jackson‍. I don’t think Jackson committing changes your plans at running back. I don’t think it changes your plans for Devon Achane. Achane sees himself as a running back.
     
  • For corner, the focus is more narrow. The Aggies have four names at the cornerback positions, and I honestly think A&M could get all four. 
     
  • If you take seven to nine corners in the next two classes, you couldn’t blame A&M. You want to be prepared and don’t want to look up and think, “what happens if I lose a corner?”
     
  • I think Isaiah Raikes‍ decision is similar to the Blake Smith‍ decision: it’s a crucial piece to the puzzle.
     
  • If Isaiah lived in Texas, he is probably the #1 big defensive tackle in the state. His one problem is he lacks some wingspan, but he’s enormous. He’ll likely reshape his body once he gets here and he’ll take a year to do that.
     
  • You also have to think about the interior as it is. Bobby Brown probably only has two years left. You are going to have to replenish for the coming years.
     
  • I’d lean toward A&M getting Achane, but one thing is they have to get him on campus. It’s not anyone’s fault, but he’s just been very busy with track. I’d say we’re a long way away from an Achane decision.
     
  • Kourt Williams II‍, Noah Sewell‍, Jackson Bratton‍, Choe Bryant-Strother‍, Derrick Wingo, Kenneth Phillips‍ are all potential linebacker recruits. I’d say A&M offers seven or eight and they end up getting three.
     
  • There will be some people who are wired to worry and complain, and I could see Kourt Williams shutting it down and going to Ohio State this weekend. But Jimbo is doing everything he can.
     
  • My gut tells me that A&M will get Haynes King‍, but they’ll have to scratch and claw to keep him from Tennessee.
     
  • My favorite thing about covering the kids is the relationships you build. You get to know a lot of them, and I want them to make the best decision or themselves. If that’s A&M, then that’s great but if it’s not then that’s fine too.
     
  • I’d say that we know about 99% of the time if someone has silently committed. That may be two hours before or two months before.

See? It's that kind of utterly precise, insider information that brings me to TexAgs.


I kid, I kid, Brauny.

Who is editing this stuff? Ryan specifically said that his wingspan is one of his best attributes.

Ryan said he probably only has 2 years left, not "a few".

They all have a few years left.

Words mean things....

At 5'9", 170?

Of course he doesn't. You guessed it, that's also not what Ryan said. He said that Achane sees himself as a running back, but understands that he will be used in different ways.

As of this reply, Brauny's write up above says "a few". And yeah, no ****, they all have a "few" years left, hence my comment Encyclopedia Brown.

You misunderstood me. I was pointing out that the write up hasn't been edited or checked for accuracy at all.

I realize that you noticed that.

Whoever is getting paid to notice it, didn't, however.

Ah, I did indeed misunderstand you're meaning. Please disregard my sarcastic tone and childish name calling from before.

I haven't even listened and new the transcription was wrong on a couple points, particularly Achane seeing himself as a "big" running back. I also figured the wingspan comment might have been wrong. He lacks a bit in height, but his wingspan is actually quite good for his height.
