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.

Dylan Raiola announced he was staying at Nebraska.
So what, right?
Well, I had heard that his family was playing high-stakes poker with the Cornpeople and, had he gone in the portal, he was looking specifically at A&M and Auburn.
But he's not going anywhere, so the Aggies will likely sign Baron Zeno.

I am REALLY testing GPT these days with data analysis and random wacky stuff just to see how she responds, but this one might be out of pocket.

I asked her to create a campus tour of Texas A&M University from 1995, complete with campus landmarks and traditions. She seems to have used the sip campus for most of the campus shots, and for some reason included spanish moss on the trees.

That Bonfire footage, though...eh, what?

We have no business using this technology, Ags.

Many of you have generously bought tickets in the past and I know at least three people who have won items with tickets purchased for Brooks. Last year, a friend won a dove trip to Argentina!

This year, we’ve made the option to allocate funds to the general scholarship fund which helps players who couldn’t otherwise afford to play select baseball. This is a great organization doing things the right way, counting Jace LaViollete and Spencer Arrighetti among its alums.

Opinions matter - let’s hear it. There’s good, bad, and ugly.

G Aaron "Ace" Glass signed this morning. He's averaging 24 points, 6 boards and 5 assists a game for the Rancho Cucamonga Cougars so far this season.

Georgia CB Julian Humphrey and UAB QB Jacob Zeno. Zeno was hurt this year, but was outstanding in 2023.

He didn't sign with Alabama. Is he still looking around?

First, this is not a thread about firing Elko and going after him.

I’m just impressed at ASU’s turnaround from 3-9 last year to 10-2 so far this year.

I don’t remember his name coming up at all as a HC to watch. If he has been mentioned by posters, I missed it.

They went from 22nd to 17th.

Former Florida DE Kelby Collins is planning to be at Texas A&M on Wednesday and Thurday.

Syria has collapsed. This is not a domestic politics thread, so I don’t want to hear it. But it will be very interesting to watch.

Chase Sowell.

He's from Atascocita and played with Kam Dewberry and Samu. 6'4" 200'ish and runs a sub-4.4. Reminds me of Josh Reynolds in that he's a wiry build but strong and long strider with the ability to get downfield and high-point the ball.

34 catches for 678 yards (19.9ypc) and 3 TDs for East Carolina.

I know the family pretty well. Dad played baseball for Florida and his mother was an All American soccer player for the Gators too.

Something in another thread made me think of this and I figured I would ask on a separate thread to get an answer.

In one of the conference championship games Saturday night, a player was mentioned as having played the first four games of the season, then the decision was made to redshirt him, but he was playing in the conference championship since post season games do not count towards redshirt eligibility.

One thing I have learned is that most announcers don’t know what they are talking about, but this sounded feasible. Is it true that post season games do not count? If so, that’s one of the few good rules we have in place.

Elko isn't serious about winning if he keeps Bateman.
