I can't understand why so many people want to take a simple anomoly and find meaning in it. We went head to head with A&M on really 1, RSJ maybe 2 players if you count Parker. We could possibly get 2 of the top 5 players from Texas in 2014. ETA: also look where UT and Oklahoma's classes are ranked. Then look where those 2 have been ranked in the recent past.

Really? Every single class in Texas is the EXACT SAME in terms of quality?

RSJ was the only major guy from TX we went after this year that I can remember. IMO, losing him, while sucky, wasn't as big a deal as a lot of people made it out to be. We are in a pretty good position to get some elite kids from Texas in 2014 (Paris, Brown, etc) so no, the sky isn't falling. We still have a fantastic class this year that most schools would die for.

Obviously you don't follow recruiting so I will leave it at that.

Uh yes, it's absolutely the case and has been stated by many different people "in the know". IT is not a strong year for TX talent, we didn't recruit TX very hard at all. Next year BLOWS AWAY this year. Ricky Seals-Jones is considered one of the state's top recruits and he looked completely lost during his all star week/game. WAY overrated.

What about OU? I think the Aggies hurt OU and UT more than LSU, we will still sneak in and get a couple of guys most years.

Texas A&M is benefiting from having Cameron Newton 2.0, but this guy is even better. I would say that 80% of their upswing had to do with having Johnny football.
