Tuesday portal updates (latest at 10:20 p.m.)

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.

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.

Trump's Cabinet Picks

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?

FPI notes

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.
