November 29, 20205 yr Watching the aggy game and remembered our favorite headcase Demond Demas...looked up his stats for the season and saw he hasn't even caught a pass (and apparently he's not even dressed out for tonight's game). What's his deal?
November 29, 20205 yr He doesn’t really know how play the position yet. He neither understands their playbook yet nor can he get separation coming off the LOS. Like any receiver in a Jimbo offense, you probably shouldn’t expect him to become a key target until their third year, or maybe late in their second year.
November 29, 20205 yr With their winning streak and high ranking, it seems the masses have forgotten all about their personnel grievances.Â
November 29, 20205 yr Demas on portal watch? Not dressing out isn't a performance issue and reports are that it's not injury/illness. Seem to remember some grumblings about him being promised the first play of the season, which would obviously be a bold-faced lie with 0 catches still. Could easily see him being pissed Could also just be a normal off-field discipline thing

November 29, 20205 yr Dylan Wright hasn't done much either. Anaias Smith is getting all sorts of playing time already. It's about showing what you've got in practices. Just high rating shouldn't be the ticket.
November 29, 20205 yr I was high on Wright.. wouldn't mind him hitting the portal and UT giving him a hard look
November 30, 20205 yr New penalty-free portal is gonna revolutionize the bag game. Why get one bag when you can leave a year later for a second?
November 30, 20205 yr How many of such guys end up in the NFL and making real money? Nobody wants to deal with headcases if they can help it. Demas didn't even play his senior year of high school, right? He transferred and then wasn't healthy. If he expects to play but finds getting passed by someone like Chase Lane and Hez Jones for playing time, and he is pissed because of that, then good luck to him and to whichever team that is the landing spot. He had every opportunity to step up...but doesn't realize he needs more time to develop.
November 30, 20205 yr Whoever the next Texas coach is Demas doesn’t seem like a good locker room presence when trying to rebuild our culture. I could be wrong and you always take a chance on a kid that athletic.Â
December 1, 20205 yr Sounds like Demas will get playing time against Auburn. haha Interesting times. Maybe he'll catch a few balls for the first time this season if Mond can make adequate throws in Demas' general direction.
December 1, 20205 yr Westlake Village defensive tackle Victory Vaka reopened his commitment on Monday morning. Vaka was among a string of commitments for the Aggies in early May and was originally scheduled to visit A&M this past weekend for their game against LSU.
December 5, 20205 yr Achane is damn good. Guess I was incorrect saying he was being lied to about playing RB
December 6, 20205 yr Achane was a high 3-star... playing like a 5-star. Meanwhile, still nothing from Demas... that seems very weird, considering guys like Hez Jones starting and playing significant minutes. Chase Lane was a 3-star speedster coming out of high school but at least he has proved himself to be a pass catcher. But mostly it is Anias Smith, the TE (Wydermeyer), or RB screen pass, or some dinky dunky passes to Chase Lane or Hez Jones...and Hez JOnes seems to drop more than he catches. Really surprised that Dylan Wright nor Demas nor a guy like Moos Muhammad have any playing time... hopefully Jimbo can talk all of them off the ledge and they stay and become starters next season. That's a lot of talent, at least on paper, that seems to be on sideline.

December 6, 20205 yr Nevermind; I was thinking of Ainias Smith... very underrated, as it turns out: https://247sports.com/PlayerSport/Ainias-Smith-at-Dulles-183243/RecruitRankHistory/?history=composite  And Devon Achane was recruited basically for same/similar position. And now I see Achane's 247 rating versus his composite rating. 247 really gave him a big bump at the end of his senior season... kudos to them.

December 7, 20205 yr Looks like Demas again got no receptions and is not listed in the participation.

December 7, 20205 yr Outland Trophy Watchlist: Dan Moore (low 3-star) and Kenyon Green (5-star) Rimington Award Watchlist: Ryan McCollum (low 3-star) Mackey Award Semifinalist: TE Jalen Wydermeyer (high 3-star); one of 10 semifinalists, but the award likely goes to Kyle Pitts of Florida based on hype Butkus Award Semifinalist: LB Buddy Johnson (3-star); one of 16 semifinalists and probably won't win but great to see a linebacker from A&M get recognized among the top players; last one to win it was Von Miller. Doak Walker Award Semifinalist: RB Isiah Spiller (low 4-star); one of 10 semifinalists, but Najee Harris or Travis ETN probably wins it, but again, nice to see recognition. Paul Hornung Award Watchlist: Ainias Smith (3-star). 7 players recognized and only 3 of them are seniors; not bad. I bet it gets used in recruiting pitches. No DLs on the list though, while UT got Joseph Ossai recognized for one of the awards watchlists (Nagurski, I think), and Ehlinger is on multiple awards watch lists/semifinals from his sheer skill set and will.
