    Off the top of my head, the list would be shrunk by Okie State and Minnesota, at least. Not sure about any others.

    Some others  ... Missouri, Wisconsin, Utah 

    Baseball - Wake Forest ('55), Minnesota ('56, '60, '64), Oklahoma St ('59), Cal ('47, '57), Missouri ('54)

    Basketball - Wisconsin ('41), Oklahoma St ('45, 46), Cal ('59), Utah ('44)

    Football - Iowa ('58), Minnesota ('40, '41, '60)

    So that leaves A&M plus 13 others:

    Virginia Tech

    Illinois

    Northwestern

    Purdue

    Rutgers

    Iowa State

    Kansa State

    Hal?

    The operating system was assembly language, which is what I did. The rest of the flight computer code was HAL/S. There was other hardware that had their own language, but that stuff rarely changed after it was initially designed. I didn't join the project until '84, so all the big challenges of coming up with the original design was already done.

    Posted this just now in the aggie recruiting thread, but here's some more and a miscount somewhere:

    Looking back at The Greatest Recruiting Class of All-Time, HOLLAAAA!!!!:

    Walter Nolen - gone

    Evan Stewart - gone

    LT Overton - gone

    Denver Harris - gone

    Jacoby Mathews - gone

    Anthony Lucas - gone

    PJ Williams - gone

    Jake Johnson - gone

    Smoke Bouie - gone

    Marquis Groves-Killebrew - gone

    Chris Marshall - gone

    Bobby Taylor - gone

    Ish Harris - gone

    Ethan Moczulski - gone

    Shemar Stewart - stayed - draft pick

    Gabriel Brownlow-Dindy - stayed -bust, rumored to be leaving in winter 2024 window

    Conner Weigman - stayed - bust, rumored to be leaving in winter 2024 window

    Enai White - stayed - bust, rumored to be leaving in winter 2024 window

    Bryce Anderson - stayed

    Kam Dewberry - stayed - dude had one snap on Saturday

    Le'Veon Moss - stayed

    Malick Sylla - stayed - 60 snaps this season

    Donovan Green - stayed -got fat and slow after being hurt, getting married. rumored to be leaving in winter 2024 window

    Hunter Erb - stayed - 11 snaps this season

    Martrell Harris - stayed? - Zero snaps this season. Maybe he left?

    Theo Melin Ohrstrom - stayed

    Jadon Scarlett - stayed - 8 snaps all year

    Jarred Kerr - stayed - 35 snaps all year

    Noah Thomas - stayed

    Mark Nabou - stayed

    14/30 gone with more leaving shortly. Moss, Nabou, Ohrstrom, Anderson, Thomas are the only true producers to have stuck it out. Anderson was a borderline 5 star and now might not be drafted. The others were mid-to-bottom of the class and have outshined the heralded highly ranked guys. This is the kind of class that destroys a program. 

     

    I included the 2 transfers (Max Johnson, Micaiah Overton) who are both gone.

    search sucks - can someone repost the ctj rundown on the 2022 class that he posted earlier this year?  i'm thinking june?  @closetojumping do you have this handy? or do you remember the % of the 22 class that was already gone before august camp this year?

    @closetojumping already answered this (50%), but here are some details. This link (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TzoBTIvCXfZIk7Sz3C9txMg0yPvrXyVM/edit?gid=1682239859#gid=1682239859) has an Aggie by Class tab which lists every signee since 2017 and where they ended their careers. There's also a Texas by Class tab. 16 of 32 signees from 2022 are no longer on the A&M roster.

    How has Moore been playing?

    I don't recall any particular plays from him against Michigan, but I do remember seeing him on the field quite a bit.

    Didn’t he rag doll their RT at least once?

    Sarkisian mentioned that he’d been holding the edge against the run and that teams are going to have to try something different. I inferred that he felt like that would provide even more opportunities. 

    Not too bad

    According to Wikipedia:

    The Lone Star Showdown is the traditional rivalry for all varsity men's and women's athletics competitions between the University of Texas at Austin and Texas A&M University. The State Farm Lone Star Showdown started in 2004 and was created to bring more attention to the rivalry in non-major sports. The Lone Star Showdown trophy was awarded to the winning school each year based on head-to-head matchup in each sport. The final episode of the annual competition occurred during the 2011–12 academic year.

    Makes sense to restart this now that we're in the same conference. Probably needed a press conference to give the new sponsor some pub.

  7. Here's what I track based on composite ratings of .90 or higher (I don't track stars). Transfers get their transfer rating, not their HS rating. However, it just shows the rating at NSD (for HS) or on the commitment date (transfers). I don't check the ratings to see if they've been updated. It's not perfect, but it's at least a step in the right direction.

    Cross posting for those that missed other threads:

    There are a lot of tabs in that file (quoted link) depending on your interest. If you enjoy memory lane, there's a tab for where things stood at the end of each season since 2011. There are Texas by Class and Aggie by Class tabs which shows what happened to every recruit since 2017. The Aggie Grid is an alternative to the depth chart/class style I use for Texas. It shows each recruit by class (rather than remaining eligibility) and their player rating. I don't track depth chart for Aggie since I don't follow them close enough and Ourlads.com does a better job of tracking than I could do. The Roster tab is a dump from the Texas web site and is used by formulas in the 2024 tab to update the jersey numbers. The player positions and depth chart in the 2024 tab is based on what I read on Surly, which includes a lot of speculation. When the season starts, I'll update them based on the official depth chart each week.

    One popular theory is that Cadets from Texas A&M stole the mascot to brand 13 – 0, which was the score the Aggies had won by the year before. Faced with that dilemma some UT student suggested combining the 1 and 3 to create a B, made an E out of the -, added a V, kept the 0 to create BEVO.”

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bevo_(mascot)

    https://www.texasexes.org/about-us/history-and-traditions/truth-about-bevo

    tl;dr - The mascot was named Bevo before the 13 - 0 branding. The brand was never changed from 13 - 0 to BEVO. Texas A&M did not steal the mascot.

    No one knows THE DEFENSE??? Shouldn't like AT LEAST 55% to 60% of these guys already know this system inside and out since, you know, THEY PLAYED UNDER IT? Some of them for several years. How is the D being unfamiliar with Elko's system even remotely possible?

    Elko coached at A&M for the 2018 - 2021 seasons. 63 players that were on the roster during those years transferred, were expelled, or took a medical retirement. 29 of those 63 were on defense. There are only 3 defensive players currently on the roster from Elko's time:  Shemar Turner, Albert Regis, and Tyreek Chappell. They were all freshman in 2021.

    You can see what happened to every signee since 2017 in the Aggie by Class tab https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TzoBTIvCXfZIk7Sz3C9txMg0yPvrXyVM/edit#gid=1912575733. There's also a Texas by Class tab.
