  1. I'm an Aggie so take it for zero worth if you'd like, but I think Banks can be kept in-state. Oregon is quite a distance away for a recruit to end up in, especially when there are two in-state programs with good-to-great OL corches, brand programs (for NIL), and plenty of on-air games in football-relevant tv markets.

    Whatever voodoo Oregon put on Banks can wear off given enough time. And I don't know about Flood and Sark, but Jimbo has flipped some decently rated guys to A&M after being in the thick of things for their commitments and losing out on their initial commits (Bobby Brown and Akinola Ogunbiyi come to mind).  If Kyle Flood is who you all think he is, then Banks has two great options right in state. And there are months to go before anything is final. So...chill?

    WTF, 14 OT's on the roster at Oregon and tOSU and they are still pulling in top OT's?!

     

    quality of the sales job and pushing for commitments. Oregon with the Nike dollas and tOSU with...i don't know, making it to the playoffs.

    just means there will likely be a loaded transfer portal. The portal is just going to be making a bigger impact that more schools going fwd.

    The old "small town feel" trope gets thrown out by aggies whenever they need it to suit their narrative about a given player's potential reason for choosing them, whether that has any bearing in reality for the area or the recruit or not.

    Harold Perkins is a big city baller. He likes the bright lights and choices of activities a big city provides. I still expect him to sign with ATM or some other backwater SEC town like Baton Rouge. Likewise, wherever Banks goes, it's not going to be because he's really craving watching corn pop up in rows while he rocks in a chair on the porch to the melodic sounds of forest birds, miles away from any audible car traffic or streetlights. 

    well, except that different players prioritize different things when choosing where to attend college. Some want a city or small town or college town or whatever. Others want a connection with their position coach, and still others probably want other things. There's no one size fits all. All I surmised was that Banks was ready to go even to Stillwater, so what's to say he is not likely to end up in B/CS, especially if he also has a connect with the position coach.

    Perkins may or may not even up at A&M...right now if I had to guess, just going by A&M's recent bad luck at linebacker, he likely doesn't end up in B/CS. But it would be for whatever reasons that Perkins prioritizes in his decisionmaking of where to attend college...and those decisions are completely separate and non-dependent on how Banks makes his choice.
