  1. Do you have any data that backs up your claim, or are you just throwing stuff up against the wall and seeing what sticks? There are multiple studies that prove that the higher the star ranking, the more likely the player is to play on Sunday's. When your coach can't get these highly ranked players then your writers such as Fat Ketch and Chimp have to try to change the narrative and say that 3 stars work harder. They did a good job convincing you, so keep sending them your $9.95 each month. Texas lost these games by 23, 5, 34, & 38 points respectively. I'm not sure exactly how the defense earned a win in these games. A&M lost 59-0 to Bama, but they would have won if the offense would have scored 60......
  2. Let's look at stadium size. Imagine if you are a big time recruit visiting a game. Would you rather go to a Bama game with 102,000 fans or a TCU game last year that maybe had 5,000? Stadium Capacities(rounded down to nearest thousand) A&M- 106,000 Tennesse- 102,000 LSU- 102,000 Bama- 101,000 Georgia- 92,000 Florida- 88,000 Auburn- 87,000 USC- 80,000 Arkansas- 76,000 Mizzou- 71,000 Kentucky- 68,000 Miss St- 61,000 Ole Miss- 60,000 Vandy- 40,000 Texas-100,000 OU- 82,000 OSU- 60,000 Tech- 60,000 WV- 60,000 Iowa State- 56,000 Kansas- 50,000 K-State- 50,000 Baylor- 45,000 TCU- 45,000 Ole Miss has the 2nd smallest stadium in the SEC with a little over 60,000 seats. That would rank as the 3rd largest in the Big12. Recruits get to go to games all over the country if they are good enough. The atmospheres in the Big 12 and SEC aren't even remotely close and the recruits notice.
  3. Could it be exposure? Playing every game on TV in front of the entire country instead of regional games is pretty nice. It also doesn't hurt that you play against the best players in the country each week. This gets proven over and over each year by these same recruiting rankings and NFL Draft picks. I'll keep posting facts and yall can keep posting gossip and looking silly.
  4. Most recruits are ranked before they commit. In the past Fat Ketch was able to bump some guys up after they committed, but it's a lot harder now that scouting has become such a big business. A&M currently has the #4 ranked class in the country which is only the 3rd best class in the SEC Texas is ranked 19th in the country which is the best class in the Big 12. There are 9 SEC Teams with classes ranked ahead of them. The recruits definitely aren't buying your argument. There is a reason that the only representation from the Big 12 Conference in the National Championship game will be from their referees.
  5. If Malik commits on Friday that will give the Ags 4- 5 star recruits for the 2015 class. That is the same number of 4 stars that Chuckie has inked so far. He's doing a good job of earning his nickname 3 star Charlie.
  6. Meet Mr. Kirk [Hidden Content]
  7. A&M also signed 3 Juco's today that will enroll in January S- Justin Evans LB- Claud George WR- Damion Ratley
  8. @TheKylerMurray: LETS GO! Happy for my dude @ChristianDavon2! Can't wait to ball with you bro! #GigEm👍
  9. 2nd straight year Ags get the top player in Arizona. #4 ranked receiver in the country #WRAZ? @bangulo: Five-star receiver Christian Kirk commits to Texas A&M #Aggies #GigEm #TAMU #ChristianKirk [Hidden Content]
  10. Sumlin mentioned doing something innovative. Rumors are that he will hire Co-DC's in Michigan's Greg Mattison and Florida's DJ Durkin. That would be an interesting pair. The hot young coach and an old guy that has been around the block. Florida had the 9th ranked D this year. Michigan was ranked 10th surprisingly.
  11. @mashable: Obama announces historic change to U.S.- Cuba relations: [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content] I've been looking for new vacation spots..
  12. Miss St is graduating a lot. What does South Carolina have coming back that makes you think they will be that much better? A&M played a lot of freshman this season. They should be improved
  13. Big couple of days for the Ags. 5 star WR Christian Kirk announces today at 2:45pm- A&M or Arizona St 5 star LB Malik Jefferson announces Friday- A&M, Texas, or UCLA. A&M doesn't currently have a WR coach or a DC which could play a factor. Does Sumlin get 1, both, or neither of these guys?
  14. Former Nebraska coach Bo Pelini will be Youngstown State's new head coach per a source.
  15. Condi Rice new president at Texas? [Hidden Content]
  16. @jokoch09: Reports are that the Texans will be resigning Case Keenum off the St Louis Rams practice squad and bring him back to Houston @CyFairSports
  17. You do realize that if people don't like their salary or hours they are free to leave and find employment elsewhere.
  18. Tie breakers will get interesting for home field advantage. 6 very good teams for 5 playoff spots. The whole NFC South is brutal, but they will get to host a playoff game somehow. Should be a good last 2 weeks.
  19. Ball game!! Good win for Dallas. Back in 1st place
  20. Dez times 3!! 35-24 Cowboys
  21. Nice answer by Dallas 28-24 Cowboys
  22. Dez! 21-0 Cowboys
