    (This is quite something ... ignoring the portal because those transfers are not good enough, and now, these are the remaining high school / juco targets.  Woof.)

    Looking at Texas A&M's current unsigned targets

    The Early Signing Period for the class of 2023 is now over and Texas A&M inked 17 high school prospects. The Aggies are expected to announce one more – longtime defensive line commit Samu Taumanupepe – after he has a ceremony in his birthday, Jan. 23, to bring that total to 18.

    The team has added one commitment from the transfer portal and is expected to land some others as well in order to provide immediate help, but Jimbo Fisher and Co. will also look to add more high schoolers on the traditional Signing Day, Feb. 1.

    This year and next, there is no limit for “initial counters,” so A&M is not limited to 25 newcomers. The only number that matters is the 85-man total scholarship limit for the team, and there is quite a bit of room under that.

    Here is a look at the few current high school and junior college targets. There will likely be more emerge as the staff meets and looks at the unsigned prospects around the country.

    -New Orleans (La.) De La Salle OT Caden Jones – The 6-foot-8, 305-pounder is A&M’s top unsigned target at this point. He has long been down to the Aggies and Florida and officially visited both in the final two weeks before the dead period. Jones plans to announce on TV during the All-American Bowl on Jan. 7. While some players that will announce then have already signed and asked the schools to hold off on publicizing it, Jones says he has not inked anywhere. Florida was consider the leader heading into his A&M official visit and the Aggies now have the momentum.

    -San Bernardino (Calif.) Cajon ATH JeyQuan Smith – The speedy 5-foot-10, 175-pound athlete is being recruited by A&M as a wide receiver. In late November, he had a final three of Oregon, Utah and Washington with a decision date imminent but then an offer by the Aggies pushed that date back. He plans to visit College Station in late January now. Smith has a similar skillset to signee Micah Tease, so there is always the potential that the team feels it is no longer a need but, if A&M pushes, they stand a good chance of landing him.

    -Snow College WR Marquis Montgomery – Texas A&M offered the 6-foot-5, 205-pound JUCO wideout this past Wednesday. He has actually received a number of late offers, since he did not sign early. Montgomery has officially visited Middle Tennessee, San Diego State and Utah State and now plans to use his final two to A&M and Washington State. This one will likely depend on how hard the Aggies push.

     

     

    ‘’Jimbo Fisher and Co.” are literally killing themselves recruiting Snow College.

    Holy crap!  As undesirable as aggy is right now, there must be some temptation to join on just to have zero competition for playing time and get 80 snaps a game.  

    I mean, it is the perfect formula for a perpetual 8-4 ceiling, is it not?

    Please let the mystery guy be Scott Frost…

    Combine his drinking issues that got so bad that it interfered with him being able to recruit, with his personality and temper, with Jimbo’s meddling and it might be a more toxic situation than Petrino.

    If you’d pissed yourself hiding in a closet watching Lawrence Phillips beat up your lady friend, you might drink and have a temper too. 

  4. The abject stupidity of aggy never ceases to amaze. They keep doing the same shit every year, thinking it will finally work out this time. Meanwhile they can't understand why nobody likes or respects them. Way to go aggy, you bought another 5-star.
