Regardless, they still fell ass backwards into a way better QB than they should have.

King is very much a five-star and A&M got unbelievably lucky.

August 13, 20196 yr It’s a shame we’ll never know if aggy is 8-10 points better.  Guess we’ll never know since they hurt their vaginas and ran away.  Hope we never play them again.  27-25 bitches!

He's not a 5 star player. Lulz at satya's take that "schools already had their QB". If King was a 5 star QB and right there for the taking they would dump their current QB commit in a second.Â

Usually they're one of the leaders in the class and one of the first to commit. Processing them is just asking for trouble. We wouldn't have dumped Card for JQJ and next year we won't dump Milroe right before the season if a 5* QB were available.Â

Would a QB from ______ that ______ didn't offer ever be a 5 star? try Ohio, tOSU; Louisiana, LSU; Washington, UDub; Pennsylvania, Pedo State; the answer is "no" to all of them. Add more if you like.

If you have somebody like Card and JQJ it's not worth the trouble because they're already legit talents. In this case, our staff thinks both are better than King regardless of ranking. But you're kidding yourself if you think it's "trouble" for a school to drop a decent QB for a perceived 5 star talent. Nearly every school in the country would do it. The blow back from processing players lasts a couple days and then nobody gives a shit. Edited August 13, 20196 yr by Rickylovesweed

August 13, 20196 yr Don't even have to process them, take a 3rd QB and at least one of the other two will get the hint and look elsewhere.Â

If people are really going to die on this hill their entire argument basically comes down to LSU because King was sold on the SEC. The lack of blue bloods in King's recruitment wasn't weird because he wouldn't look at most of them and a lot of the good SEC schools had their QBs early. "bUt LoOk At HiS oFfErS" is a very aggy argument and generally just annoying
August 13, 20196 yr Just now, HtownHorn said: Holy shit, they are stupid. This is the time of year where aggie championships are born and realized on paper.  Once the season starts, games replace camps for player value and upside.  If Aggie has good to great players, they will need to fend off the big SEC schools that beat them on Saturday in front of their recruits and then take signatures.  Additionally, none of the top SEC teams are afraid of the fighting aggie checkbook.Â
August 13, 20196 yr 1 hour ago, Ricky Butler said: I don't think A&M is going to be bad under Jimbo. I think he's a good recruiter. I think their problem is that they need Texas to be bad, and they don't realize that that part of the cycle just ran its course. He might be a good recruiter, but I wondered how much losing Brewster was going to hurt their recruiting. I'm not sold on Jimbo being an elite recruiter like I think Herman is.Â

Couldn't be me. There are obviously some anomalies when it comes to offer lists and 5 stars but if the big boy schools aren't involved there's normally a reason why. 2) It's almost like LSU is shit at evaluating QBs. There isn't years of evidence to prove this or anything.Â

But you can't look at them alone if there's other information. King is a very good prospect. But the fact that he was all SEC and it was a Texas A&M/Tennessee battle actually does say something regarding his prospect status. And it doesn't say "5-star". Not a big deal as he's still a good recruit and the 5-star status is fairly meaningless anyway if you know the kid is a Top 100 prospect.

SEC schools are out here throwing wads of cash at recruits and people think they would be scared to dump an average QB commit for a perceived 5 star talent? Hilarious. If some of those SEC schools thought King was a true 5 star talent they would have been all over him regardless of who they had committed. Â
August 13, 20196 yr The Xfl is supposed to start play in February so I wonder if it'll be easier to process out kids this year because they may have a landing spot. Especially for schools like aggy whose schedules will be complete by early December at the latest.Â

He had a lot of great athletes on his team, so he really didn't have to carry them on his shoulders. He had to lead his peers and distribute the ball- things coaches' kids are often pretty good at. King would get destroyed in our offense. He would get carried off the field in pieces in his first game, which I'm sure is part of why we didn't recruit him. He is a much better fit with aggy's style of play.

Oh, the coach beat one of the elite new money teams with a G5 team? Fucking lol.
