So they have never pulled top athletes from texas before?



Never said that brain trust, but thanks for the post and help supporting my statement above.

Sure A&M has recruited top athletes in the past, HOWEVER, now being a member of the SEC and the fact that all premier athletes want to showcase their talent in the best conference in college football, MANY more of the states (TX) premier athletes will strongly consider A&M and remain in their home state rather than commit to an OOS school for a chance to play in the SEC.

what makes you so sure they will get guys that were going OOS and not guys that would have gone to Texas or OU?

EVen in the early 90's when LSU was terrible and A&M was dominating the state, LSU was able to get players like Odell Beckham Sr, Kendall Cleveland and Alan Faneca from Texas. LSU has always gotten recruits from Texas. A&M joining the SEC will not stop that.
