    The Aggies don't even seem like they're a Texas team anymore. That was their choice though, and I think it worked out financially, which is what bigtime college football is all about. Everyone gets paid but the players. Our former coach has made well over a million since he left five years ago.

    They seem like they are in Texas to me. It's all a matter of perspective.

    Love love love that Traylor is on the Arkansas staff with Chad Morris. If Morris can keep Traylor around, Arkansas will turn into an offensive juggernaut here in a year or two. Between the two of them, they've done with Bielema never could figure out how to do: Recruit Texas. Specifically, by Morris's design, they're recruiting east Texas heavily. That's where having Traylor on board is such a priceless commodity. Maybe Surratt is the only more highly respected coach out there, and I don't think even he would have the recruiting bravado that Traylor carries.
    Texas Forever.

    He wanted to be a head coach by now. Five years of not wearing the headset is frustrating for him.

    So, no, he probably won't be sticking around if he doesn't have to. Fayetteville may be Hog Heaven, but it's not that for Texans.

    There are more Texans in Fayetteville and U of A than there are folks from other states, including Arkansas, I can tell you that. Lots of Texans on the roster, too, and probably always will be. Traylor will certainly get his shot at a head job, but he hasn't done anything at the college ranks YET to warrant that, honestly. There's no question he's a genius, and I really do think if he gets a year or two with Morris, the rest of the college football world is going to get to see him showcase that genius, and he will indeed get a head coaching offer.
    Texas Forever.

    I rest A&M's offensive ability squarely on Mond's arm and throwing accuracy. If he can hit the deep guys, our Offense will be great.

    The D will have some learning to do, but there is really good talent. Getting it to gel, and eliminate pass coverage mistakes will be the biggest hurdle IMHO.

    Can't wait for the season to begin.

    A&M just picked up a verbal commitment from north shore 4* WR Shadrach Banks....

    You may remember him ripping the duncanville defense apart in the 6A D1 state championship game as a sophomore last season... he did something similar to Katy a couple weeks earlier

    Last years two give-me tickets: Clemson and LSU on the 50 yd line. If I could only get that lucky this year.
