Re: Question to A&M Posters..
I certainly can't answer for any of the Ags, D303PP, but I can tell you that the Ag "Guide-on" has not been flying very high lately, mainly because of the re-building of the football program, and the embarrasing defeat in the Cotton Bowl this year. This was one of the few opportunities the Aggies have had to celebrate anything in the football program for a while. A&M is a great Texas institution with a lot of pride and tradition, so for my part, I say let em' go "Whoooop" on this one---but I'm still going to have a lot of good-natured fun poking fun at them on occasion.Originally posted by District303aPastPlayer

Re: Question to A&M Posters..
I'm not an Aggie, but my guess because it turns a very good recruiting class into one of the top ten in the nation. Since they got Bennett, their recruiting class this year is even better than Auburn's, at least as of now.Originally posted by District303aPastPlayer

The fact that we have the #5 recruiting class in the nation is VERY exciting. It shows us that there is HUGE promise for the future. Im getting REALLY excited for Aggie sports. As Martellus said last night, "This is a school with 2 up and coming programs." Thats exactly what is in motion right now.

horns are just jelous that a top recruit picked another school over them again. For example Peterson and now it looks like Perrilloux.... OH and one player may not effect your program alot, but you build a program ONE player at a time. Bennet is just another peice, and a perfect fit

You sure are making a big generalization with your statement that is making you look and your school really stupid.Originally posted by AggieBob

It's not that this guy will turn around the program, it's just another huge step in the right direction. A few years ago, even last year, A&M wouldn't have had a chance to land a guy like this, especially over UT and LSU. It's simply a statement that Fran can recruit with the big boys, Bennett is a huge piece that makes up a very good, arguably top 5 recruiting class. Before A&M can play at the level of UT and OU, they have to be able to bring in the type of players that those programs bring in. Martellus is certainly one of those players, and this class is certainly one of those classes. Next, I would love to sign Callahan Bright, the DT from PA. Last I checked it was A&M or FSU, I think he's waiting til tomorrow to announce.Originally posted by District303aPastPlayer

Apologies if A&M fans seem to have overreacted. My friend made the comment the other night "Tellus will choose UT, because that's what big time players do." That's the way we were thinking. It's not just about getting Bennett, it's about the statement that A&M will recruit with the big boys, and should play with the big boys shortly.
