Why a player from Texas would choose A&M over UT, OU, or LSU is beyond me.
I agree.
But very few of those 12 are picking A&M over those other schools.
A&M is their only option.

Really? 10 ESPN 150 guys and A&M is their only choice? Do you realize how idiotic that sounds?
Mike Matthews was coveted by Texas and OU and USC, but he wants to follow his brothers and play for a great OL coach in Sherman.
Jaeveon Richardson is a 4 star WR that is wanted by all of the Big 12.
Green is a 4 star RB.. The Brenham guys we are landing are a direct head to head with Texas. Brandon Alexander, Malcom Brown and Tim Cole.
Any OL A&M gets is because the coaches have produced and developed great Olinemen. Its why Bruce Matthews directs his boys towards A&M.
When we land Trey Williams, there will be another gamebreaking RB.
It's not because of past successes that we are doing so well. It's because Sherman hired some new guys before the 2010 season who are hard workers, great tacticians and good recruiters. I'm referring to Nick Toth, Tim DeRuyter and Terrell Williams.
You could ask the same question about Texas, LSU and OU in the late 90s. They had been way down since the late 80s and recruiting suffered, but they hired the right coaches and recruiting started swinging their way.
A&M hired some new ones, showed progress in 2010 with 9 wins (up from 6 wins in 2009) and an expanded and renovated Kyle Field in 2012, and recruits are coming... A&M has always had the ability to recruit... why some of you are playing this "they've sucked for 10 years" therefore they shouldn't be able to recruit business is very short-sighted.
