    Well, they all recruit players from all over the country.  

    Here is the irony. A&M just signed late last night the best J.C. OT in the country, but he is a former Australian rugby player. 6'5" 320 lb Jordan Moko of Brisbane, Australia. Incredibly he is like the 4th or 5th best OL signed by A&M this year. A&M loses 4 of their 5 starters from the team, so that attracted a lot of really great OLs. On Wed. they found the best RB in the state to run behind them in LJ Johnson, a power back with a great stiffarm who also can get into the 4.2+ 40 yd dash area.. Reminds me a lot of former Gator and Cowboy Emmitt Smith. Poor teasips announce it for us.?

    Best OC in the country because he was a rugby player?

    You do know that  blocking is disallowed in rugby, don't you?

    Played what?  Rugby, or football?   And where is "here"?

    Here as in Utah. https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/tamu-football/texas-am-lands-commitment-from-australia-native-mammoth-juco-offensive-lineman/

    From the article: "Texas A&M has landed a commitment from JUCO offensive lineman Jordan Moko, who is 6-foot-5 and 335 pounds, out of Snow College in Utah by way of his native Australia. The nation’s No. 6 overall JUCO prospect and No. 1 offensive tackle committed to the Aggies over LSU and Oregon, and a reported 23 offers overall."

    How much under the table money did they give him?

    I wonder what the going rate is now for the top 5* P5 athletes now ?  (Unless the NCAA has that all cleaned up. 😉)

    Used to be nice money in the Cam Newton days.

    Smart guy knows that 4 of the starting 5 are going pro and that they were the best OL in the SEC this year. The money comes later from the high pick if he continues to learn and play well.

    Guess what he found down in there today. A 3 year LT grad transfer from Tennessee who wants to improve his draft status as an extra year transfer through the portal.

    Along with the pile of cash that A&M provided in a brown paper sack.  Which you apparently overlooked.

    (And...whatever they have found, it will not make A&M relevant in the national title picture any more than they have been for the last 80 years)

    That is because we have never paid as much as OSU, ND and Bama.??

    Bama certainly.....Not the others who don't pay.

    "We don't pay".  Now who's got their head in the sand? BTW we don't have to pay with a recruiter like Fisher. Ever heard him talk? He'd have you sell your grandchildren and thank him for the assistance. Plus UT-Austin hates us so much because the SEC connection is an ace in the hole over them that gives us first shot at all the best in-state players. They watch for infractions they can pin on us constantly because several we have gotten these years in the SEC came down to us and them and 90%+ have sited that SEC big time pro placement as the reason they took us. SEC West is the mini-NFL and players are all fully aware that if you do well here against the best, you will get a higher draft position than Little 12 minus 2. I mean what conference would continue to call themselves Big XII when they only have X anyway?

    Maybe, but not as blatantly.

    Yea, I have. You are far more impressed than I.

    Yea, that sounds like a lot of Dusty Springfield going on there....a wishing, a hoping, a praying. 

    SEC West is the mini-NFL

    Because they pay, and because, as I have said, Alabama is East Germany lite. 

    and players are all fully aware that if you do well here against the best, you will get a higher draft position than Little 12 minus 2. I mean what conference would continue to call themselves Big XII when they only have X anyway?

    They should expand, I agree with that.
