I like how Aggie fans are up in arms over him being arrested at all for a "gesture" when it sounds like it was a bit more than that, including, failing to listen to the Officer  basically telling him to "shut up and walk away"

You would think aggy would embrace it. The last aggy footballer that got into an altercation and was arrested won a Heisman.

No way that can be true.  13 years since an aggy player was arrested for a fight?

Too busy smoking dope in the locker room under Jimbo to get riled up enough to fight.

Probably not, but then that would ruin my narrative.

Texas A&M fans are still very excited about their prospects on the recruiting trail this cycle, with the Aggies having multiple elite-level players already committed and more on their radar. The Aggie class is in the top 5 nationally across all recruiting sites, but the latest update from the Rivals 300 has some fans scratching their heads.

For some context, Rivals and On3 recently merged, meaning there are once more only three major recruiting ranking services: 247Sports, Rivals, and ESPN. With the clout that On3 managed to gain in their short existence as a recruiting service, though, they've breathed new life into the Rivals rankings with this merger.


That's why some of these rankings are so perturbing for Aggie fans. There is one notable plus for the Ags, but other than that, it looks like the Rivals people are bearish on nearly every Aggie commit compared to their overall ranking.

Texas A&M fans rolling their eyes after new Rivals rankings undersell nearly every commit
You can take a look at the Aggies' top commits on this list. The thing that immediately jumps out is that the Aggies, despite boasting three five-star commits in Brandon Arrington, Bryce Perry-Wright, and Tristian Givens, are not credited with a single five-star by Rivals.

18 of the Aggies' 24 commitments are either given a lower rating by Rivals than the industry average or not given a ranking at all nationally. The notable exception is Kaeden "KK" Johnson, who jumps from outside the top 300 to 174 nationally.

However, there are far more examples of the Rivals 300 being way down on Aggie commits compared to the industry. Brandon Arrington is a top-10 player nationally, but Rivals has him rated as the 28th overall player and a four-star. They have Bryce Perry-Wright 60 spots lower than his industry average.

Tristian Givens is rated outside the top 100, all the way down at 133rd, despite his industry average being 56th. DT Jermaine Kinsler is ranked 80 spots lower than his average by Rivals, DaQuives Beck is 70 spots lower, and Cameron Hamiel is ranked over 60 spots lower.


One of the most mystifying rankings is Jordan Carter, whose lowest rating otherwise is 114th by 247Sports— ESPN has him at 59th— not even making the top 300. The other thing that really stuck out like a sore thumb to me was Helaman Casuga dropping a few spots despite finishing as the runner-up at the Elite 11.

The reason that is so obtuse is that Texas commit Dia Bell barely finished with the top spot at the Elite 11 over Casuga and he jumped all the way to the 2nd overall rank. If the change in rankings is due to what has been done this summer, then this is a real head-scratcher.


Maybe these rankings will course-correct over the fall. There are some really inexcusable drops in here, and some of the players who are slotted way low may have a chance to jump. However, as of now, this is more than just confusing— it's maddening.

Hmmm.  98,300 online students.  Does its place in the rankings include online bullying?

John Sharp is pissed that someone has followed his blueprint for growing Texas A&M into the biggest school in the country better than the Ags.

Wait . . . Grand fucking Canyon University has over 100,000 students?  Are a bunch of those remote/online? 

GCU is Liberty w/ less starpower and no football team.

"If the football team becomes the Eagles, the basketball team becomes the Thunder, and the baseball team becomes the Dodgers, do you agree this would be the best big 3 the Aggies have ever had?"

I love how he just assumes they are going to have a more talented baseball roster next season.

The Athletic's bit on football rivalries also comes with some hilarity.  We are listed three times, including UT-OU at #3, followed by aggy (#15) and piggie (#38).

Aggy has us, LSU (#71), and--checks notes--Baylor (#74).

parasites are not rivals

lsu also disavows any fucks given re: aggy

aggy have rape, pig and tceh

they really should go back to the rig
