The way it looks....

  • We have a good chance to get:

    Walker on July 1st...
    Samples on July 5th...
    Zimmermann when he visits in Mid July...
    Washington when he visits in July...

    This will shore up the DT position as well as the WR and DB positions (yes, we will still recruit RSJ). We will head into fall camp sitting at 25 commits (counting Griffin). Then it's on to closing 2 more LBs and a couple of Oline prospects (one HS & one JUCO at each position).... granted that's 29 commits yet Griffin is a long shot... we will see what happens from there... exciting times when TAMU could enter fall camp with 25 commits!

  • Seriously doubt we take 2 more oline, unless those 2 are Benecoch and St. John.

  • What about the new lb prospect, Williams, I like our chances when he visits in July

    Your logic is boggling my mind

  • We take Walker but I still think we have a legitimate shot with Manning. How many more DT's does Summy take before Manning's announcement date? 1, 2?

    Looks like Walker on July 1st, then possibly ZImmerman (JUCO) before the summer is out. No idea when the rest of the JUCOs are set to decide or when Manning is.

  • Yes i think we take the Williams kid (LB from LA).... i think if Beneoch (sp) doesnt come aboard then we grab a juco and we are done (unless someone wants to flip and we happen to have room)... sure, we have shots at other kids yet the 4 above sound/look like they will happen... thats all....

  • Here is how i think the staff will sell this....

    To Walker: look, our plan is to take one more DT from the high school ranks. We want that to be YOU. As long as ur willing to shut things down, we want you to commit to tamu. What do you say young man? Granted i think Hardrick is coming here to commit anyway so the above might not apply anyway.

    Samples has his mimd made up and it's just about making it public...

    Then, when Rob Zimmerman visits: Look Robert, oir original plan is to take one juco dt this year. We just recieved a commitment from a young man a couple of weeks ago that rounded out the High School DT spota we had and now we have ONE spot at DT remaining. You meet all of our criteria... Ur a 3 to play 3, a mid term guy, and a heck of a ball player. If you're not ready to commit today we can not guarantee you a spot. What do you say young man? Granted this is IF we dont have someone else rated higher...

    To Washington when he visits. Well young man, we would love to have you part of this class. As u can see with our 2013 class filling up, there are several young men that want to be a part of what we have here. Your special because you could possibly frow into a different position. Granted depending on how your body grows over the next few years you might be at a different position. Sure, you're a Safety now yet in two years you might be an olb. So, if you're willing to shut it down and commit to us today we will accept that commitment and in return we will commit to you as well. What do ya say young man?

    Problem there is what ur telling walker and Zimmerman would be all good until manning or Hardison or toby wanted to jump on

    If the coaches don't take a minimum of 2 juco DTs this year they should be fired for being ignorant of their own depth chart.

    Seriously look at the depth chart....the sh!t show that will be returning in 2013 is more frightening than this upcoming season.

    This class needs 2 juco DTs.....3 if Ray doesn't make it in, which it sounds less promising every day.

  • a&M could start Hatten and Ennis next season with Ivan being the first off the bench. Its not a night mare as some say.

  • Hardison is as big a get as any if we get Walker and Zimmerman. This guy can do 2 things go inside on sure passing downs or be a SDE with great size, something we are going to need as what we have on campus isn't developing the way expected. I think this guy is a bellcow.

    That's still pretty bleak in a run heavy conference. At least 1 JUCO is needed to compete with Hatten for the starting spot opposite Ennis. 2 JUCOs would probably allow Robinson to play his more natural SDE position.
