There is zero chance the RSJ doesn't go to Texas A&M because of their latest WR commit.
You have to hope that A&M took the Georgia WR because they aren't getting RSJ.
So it isn't "hey to many WR's maybe RSJ will change" but the other way around! They took other WR because RSJ isn't going to A&M.

They took 19 so they can take quite a few EE this January...

I think there are different motives at play than this. They're recruiting like an SEC team now. Take all the best players you can, more good WR > fewer good WRs.
And also, he's from Georgia and was committed to Auburn at one point. If A&M signs him, it means one of the teams they play against can't.
I don't think this has any effect on RSJ, nor is it a sign that he isn't going there. He may not go there, but this isn't telling us that.

Exactly. I agree with everything you said afterward as well.
I also deduced that they plan on having Johnny Manziel for the next 3 years and with the style of football they can run with him at the helm, 2 big stud WRs can bring him to another level.

how can they have 32 committments?
They can have 7 back counters. They will take 33 or 34 signees, 2 will not qualify.

we actually signed 19 last year but 4 were EEs so we can have 10 EEs this season. As of now, I believe we have 8 EEs in the 32 (JuQuay Williams is an EE). Two of the others are not going to qualify and won't sign. I expect us to grab 3-5 more commits.
I don't think the Williams commit means anything in relation to RSJ.

take advantage of hype when you have it because when they lose 3 OL and their best pass rushers to the NFL, they will slide back a bit.
You don't win the SEC with WRs.....you win with line play.

I actually agree with this, but it's tough convincing stud wide receivers to come here in big numbers when your top receiver averages 4 catches a game. On the other hand running backs come to LSU in numbers because they know we run the ball a lot even though they will have to split time.
