re: A&M helps or hurts?

This will help [SEC} recruiting a lot IMO. I think it will actually hurt aTm in the long run.

I just can't understand how anyone thinks this. There's a reason UF, UGA and SC don't want their in-state rivals in the SEC. If you want to own the "SEC" label in one state, it might be Texas (you could argue Florida or California too). I think there are 3 teams this hurts the most: Texas Tech, Oklahoma State, and to a lesser degree, Oklahoma. We'll gladly take the random 4-Stars who commit to OSU and Tceh every year. Hell, we already have what's likely a Top 10 class in 2012, and I don't see it going anywhere but up.
