Bussey scheduled to announce tomorrow. No way it could be him. Right??

 

Now that you mention it, Brandon Harris may be happy that Bussey is about to commit to A&M.

  • Finally can tell my aggy story.    Have a good insight into this kids recruitment and I’m still laughing about his visit to aggy. Dude gets his player host (I’ll let y’all find who that is) and

    He could have if he isn't. Play devil's advocate and tell us why you feel about this guy's overall approach to his recruitment and how that either translates to the next level or doesn't matter.

Majors redshirted in 2020, right? I get confused with how the COVID rules apply, but I think right now he is a redshirt junior. So I guess he's definitely back next year for his 5th year, and then maybe he could get a COVID super super senior year even though he redshirted that year (Idk, someone can correct me).  Either way, he's starting until he leaves. 

Covid means 8th year seniors are a thing.

Got jinxed, and it was amazingly close in time.

Flip and commit and let's close down the OL class.

Heard he’s also hard to work with

This just means that he refused to have sex with the producer(s) and/or the director(s).

That’s LA speak and common on the FOX lot.

Gerry said on IT live that he thinks there will be a couple of kids show up this weekend to visit that no one knows about right now as he took a sip of his drink while smirking. Could be something, could be nothing.

Per Gerry....

 

Solomon Williams is going to make it in this weekend for his OV with his mother. Gerry believes that Texas is the favorite.

 

 

If we land Solomon Williams....I believe all but 1 of the DL recruits this year are early enrollees. Including all 3 EDGE prospects.

I really hope Williams shuts it down this weekend. Perfect edge class if he jumps on board.

Myles Davis and TyAnthony Smith maybe?

Gerry also said we are probably the favorite to land him if he shows up. Referring to SW

That would be tremendous....Especially if Myles Davis visits again for the Tech game as already planned.

Davis is probably in the same boat as 2025 Moore. Neither should be considered a strong commit to their current schools.

So is that what final outlook for class may look like?

WR - 1

OL - 1

EDGE - 1

DL - 1 

LB - 1 (maybe??)

DB - 1 or 2

That would put us at 25 assuming no decommits or if someone gets told to look around.

according to people that have seen him in person - dude is already the size of some of our current DL and it's all muscle. more like 6'2 than the reported 6'3.  and he can dunk, so yeah, that would be a great addition to the class at edge.

I will laugh if Weston Davis shows up for an OV. 

I was wondering if he was still planning on showing up one weekend and that tweet was just meant to get all the aggie dipshits off his back.

Regarding some of the outstanding targets:

-ATM feels great about Bussey but OU thinks they can close him. OU posters are bizarrely confident on this one given that no one besides their mods think they have a chance. What I have been told is "he could have picked ATM any time and given them a boost. why hasn't he?" but my response to that is that Black could have done the same for Texas and we feel fine on him, right?

-The aggie moderators are hinting that they might have the lead on Solomon Williams after he visited for the Auburn game. The posters are fawning over him, as they should. If Texas actually leads and locks him up this weekend, the whiplash those posters will have as they play down Williams as a recruit will require chiropractic help.

-Sure seems like there could be some interesting developments both this weekend and at the Cotton Bowl with guys not completely on the radar, but I know very little about what those developments will be.

Not tacitly worried about the numbers but... Other than the wr/db, do you expect any current recruits to leave to make room for some of these new developments or are they at positions that still need bodies?

Not only can you quote him, but you can probably get some idiot to pay you $9.95 for it.

Just because they show up for a game doesnt necessarily mean they are flipping/committing. Especially the OU game.

Drumm and Thune have pretty much signed this one over to ATM.  Drumm said he got some info from someone at ATM indicating they internally felt like they were catching up to OU, but stopped juuuuust short of saying it's all Aggy at this point.

I’d be ok taking a late-rising tackle prospect (or a flip from Weston Davis) in addition to Carter.

Is sark sneaking anyone in this week or weekend? Gerry hinted at it on a national on3 recruiting pod today.

D'Antre Robinson will now be at the game too. The Florida On3 guy mentioned something about Mack not being on the visit list for the game, yet. So, I wonder if he's the surprise Gerry was hinting at yesterday.

I don't think that fits the context of which it was said.....it seemed like it was guys committed elsewhere.

All your Davis's are belong to us

Aggy will glady trade Davis's for Johnsons

Wingo, Kobe, and Solomon Williams put us at #5 class. Will need a flip or two to stay in top 5 I think.

Absolute class ranking less relevant given roughly 30% attrition on average. Winning recruiting battles in the portal is equally important as signing day.

Do you honestly believe that the participants in this thread needed some sort of heads up on this?
