January 15, 20214 yr So scholarship RBs we've got Roschon, Bijan and Brooks (and maybe that transfer whose name escapes me)? Maybe we kinda do need to land LJ.I have a feeling that we will be a hot commodity for offensive players on the transfer market.

Good luck, kid.  Wonder how this affects Dixon?  Ingram probably needs a clean slate to release some past pressure and now is as good of a time as any.  I'd maybe wait to see what the new offensive line coach brings though.  I like Ingram and I think he tries really hard but you can tell when he is thinking vs reacting.  Â

January 15, 20214 yr Not sure whether A&M would look at the transfer market, especially for a short speedster-- they probably feel that sort of a player is already on the team in the name of Anaias Smith. Plus, it seems the problem is Jimbo's overly complicated wide receiver playbook which requires receivers to run crisp routes but also be good blockers and be more cerebral. Tack on, on top of that, breaking in a new starter at QB. This past season's passing game struggles were real though a bit muted because of a senior QB who provided stability (mediocrity is also stability, you should understand). His main target was Jhamon Ausbon-- who opted out of the season. Another senior WR speedster with some game experience, Camron Buckley, also went down with a season ender injury. Then Chapman was coming along but got season-ending injury in the Florida game. Buckley is coming back, and hopefully Chapman has full recovery. And then Demon Demas and/or Moose Muhammad better take advantage and crack the starting lineup. Demas didn't play his senior year in high school and might need to not just get rid of rust but also get rid of any thoughts of having been a 5-star recruit and just be a blue collar team player-- that's how a low-rated (but speedster and nose-to-the-grindstone work ethic) guy like Chase Lane from the same recruiting class started his freshman season and became a decent contributor.  Â
January 15, 20214 yr The whole Wanya Morris to A&M feels like a portal flavor-of-the-month deal. Earlier there was talk about going after Jordan Moko, a Juco from Utah. Personally, neither of those seem likely (A&M hasn't landed very many guys from Utah and Georgia), unless they feel a buy-in about the A&M OL coach and overall scheme fit. I do feel that any transfer Jimbo might try to land would be at the OT spot.
January 15, 20214 yr I know there's been some talk back and forth here of whether Texas might try to throw its hat in the ring with Morris. Didn't he play on the same high school team as Kenyatta Watson? Pretty sure I remember the Woody from Toy Story local news dude emceeing their joint commitment ceremony. Wonder how Kenyatta's bad experiences under Herman would affect any consideration Moirris would give Texas.
