Here’s your chance to express your feelings and thoughts on how Elko did this season

Just because it’s Elko’s former team and a Maalik Murphy replacement (mentioned on AY)

I remember us recruiting him heavily at one time. Hope we go after him

Punter Keegan Andrews and DE Josh Celiscar have entered the portal. I hadn't even mentioned Celiscar for a while, so that just takes the scholarship count to 76.
I did some looking last night (and this isn't really portal related) and I think Deuce Fatheree may have trouble getting a medical redshirt. He played in five games last year, so Jimbo screwed him pretty hard. There was no reason for him to play on special teams. That would drop the count to 75.

A&M offered Western Georgia DE Malik Charles last night. He had 20 tackles and 4 sacks last year.

Nebraska DE James Williams (14 tackles, 5.5 TFL, 5 sacks) will visit next week.

10:10 update: Last year, A&M got Rodas Johnson from Wisconsin for his final season. They have just offered Rodas Johnson's replacement, James Thompson. Thompson only played in one game last year, but he had 29 tackles, 5.5 TFL and 3 sacks in 2023.

4:45 p.m. update: A&M has set up visits with WRs Nic Anderson, Barion Brown and Mario Carver. They are all in on receivers.

5:20 update: Nebraska EDGE Princewill Umanmeilen (Princely's brother), a native of Manor, will visit A&M Friday and Saturday.

10:20 pm update: Micah Hudson will take one and maybe two visits before deciding, but the trip to A&M was a positive one.

Eli Stowers 1st Team Tight End.

For me, this is entertaining to watch and follow. There’s really no point to this thread and it’ll probably be dead by breakfast tomorrow, but just thought I’d point out how this is fun to follow along with who we can get.

Would he be worth pursuing?

My boy Doyle is a master:

Is that true, I missed his interview. On Texags it’s was posted Sankey congratulated tu but didn’t mention the winner Georgia.

Is that true?

I sort of get the SecDef pick, don't know beans about some of the others but Gaetz for AG? Can he even get confirmed? Wasn't he about to get indicted for sexual harassment or something similar? And Gabbard for Intelligence Chief? I know there have been some bad ones before but what qualifications does she bring to the table?

I bet the staff reads these message boards. Now is the chance for some honest and constructive growth opportunities.

He was walking into the Hilton for a company meeting and some guy who was hanging around the front for a while shot him. That's crazy.

WR?

Though he doesn't say so, it's pretty evident he's not going to play in the bowl game.
Nic Scourton is in too.

Nic Scourton, first team;
Le'Veon Moss and Will Lee, second team;
Trey Zuhn and Shemar Stewart, third team.

Is that indicative a deal couldn’t be reached and we’re out of the running? Feels like if you don’t close during the visit we won’t get another shot with most players.

Inundated with deals, here are a bunch. Most are lightning deals and I tried to filter by 40% or higher discount.

Ridiculous he was ever charged.

ESPN's FPI is far from accurate, but to use it anyway, the top ranked defenses are:

#1 tu
#2 Notre Dame
#6 USCe
# 23 A&M

If tu, ND, and USC indeed have the top six defenses in the country, it sheds positive light on Collin Klein's offense, or at least gives a reasonable excuse for failures in year one. Also note that our offense's FPI ranking is #25. Not so bad with the substantial injuries and limited talent.

The transfer portal is open - and it's wild:

Why not?

I'll update this throughout the day.

Kam Dewberry is the latest Aggie in.
UAB QB Jacob Zeno is on campus today. He would be a 7th year senior next year.
UGA CB Julian Humphrey is visiting Friday. He has been on campus enough that I'm not sure what's new.
A&M has already reached out to WRs Micah Hudson (Tceh) and KC Concepcion (NC State) and both are expected to visit. I have both on the target list on the Portal Tracker.
A&M has offered Western Kentucky DE Deante McCray, who had 53 tackles, 3 TFL and 2.5 sacks this season. He would be a junior next season.

If you want updates from other programs, let me know.

4:10 update: The visits are getting serious. Micah Hudson will be on campus today and tomorrow, KC Concepcion will be in tomorrow and Wednesday, and Florida DE Kelby Collins will be in tomorrow and Wednesday.

4;28 update: TJ Shanahan is going in the portal. That's your first wow.

4:55 update: A&M has commenced pursuit of CB Jaylon Braxton, who was CB1 for Arkansas coming into the season but was hurt in week 2 and missed the rest of the year. He would be a redshirt sophomore.

8:50 update: I said Friday that the Aggies would probably take a look at Will Heldt, the DE who replaced Nic Scourton at Purdue. Heldt has set up a visit to A&M.
