Everything is fine and dandy over there at TAMU
Cro a GA and wondered why no one wanted to give him an on-field job when he was begging for one. Can't stfu and stay off of Twitter

Texas Homer be on point with these documentary-style YouTube videos. I think I knew that Brennan Marion played for Gus Mahlzhan at Tulsa. But I didn't know he was a star WR that was in the NFL for a few years & he would've been top NFL draft pick if not for tearing his ACL.
@Numpsay When you originally posted that Cromartie tweet, I thought he was talking about legit NIL money. Seeing now that 5-star DE Shemar Stewart from Florida has committed to A&M today & it's looking like high 4-star SS Jacoby Matthews from Louisiana is going to A&M, just made me realize right now that Cromartie was probably actually talking about bagman money.
Matthews does not want to go to A&M, his dad is adamant about him going there because he was already bought. A&M are basically signing recruits as if they are free agents now. I don't think that bodes very well for team culture, but we'll see. Plus they will have to double down to keep some of those guys out of the portal.
This is wild to look at. We have to play these guys in a few years. @Numpsay @satam55 @Spade @lightskin jermaine
Yeah this is why I'm not so sure about @Numpsay saying this will end of blowing up in Aggy's face.
Jimbo showed at FSU if he got top talent, he can win a national title.

I'm going to guess almost half of those guys will be in the portal in a few years.
Why? You guys know that the deals they signed are for 4 years? LSU reporters are saying Matthews' deal was for 100k per year.
I didn't know NIL deals came with contracts like that. I thought Perkins played the game well by getting front end money from Aggies at his commitment and then de-committing and going to LSU for another bag.
I guess after seeing Texas getting so many 5*s in the past and they all leaving have made me jaded to player rankings.
They are getting front-end money and also yearly "contracts".
The best thing that could happen is one of them gets disgruntled about money and spills the beans. But I don't see that happening. They are going to have these aggy boosters by the balls and those inbreds will keeping pay it because they are desperate to end their drought.
Yup. They've backed themselves in a corner and are pretty much in a "win now" scenario for the next 4 years. If these kids don't get the playing time they want or if the team doesn't make the tournament every year, players are going to leave the program to get another bag and parents are going to blow the whistle.
With everything I know now, yeah Sark was the better hire.
This is going to be interesting to follow the next few years. Most of those guys wouldn’t have given Aggie a chance if not for the money being offered. We’ll see how much they enjoy being in college station and what happens when they start clashing with the upperclassman over playing time. Plus the DC, OL, and strength coach hires were peculiar. I agree with @lightskin jermaine that half of those guys will likely transfer in 2 years.
Some smoke on the paid sites that David Cutcliffe might be coming on board in some capacity.
Who's reporting it?
