Obvi going to play for Dad...

@GoodmanESPN
Avery Johnson Jr. has received his release from Texas A&M, sources told ESPN. Certainly not difficult to figure where he is headed. #Bama


Am I mistaken but Wasnt there talk that he was reason A&M was getting the guys we were interested in?

Well if so, joke is on them. Their boy bailed and now they are stuck in College Station. #Woop :-/

You can believe that Bama is going to start recruiting the DFW area pretty hard especially the Texas Titans.

Just don't sweat the Titans, thats what I'd do.

Also, Simeon Carter can play w/Elijah. Not the skill level but a better athlete and much higher motor. Tyler Davis is going to be damn good and I'm sure most would trade Jarrey for Hogg, but I thinks its pretty damn close.

I'd rather have Sed and Shake to Admon etc

Downplaying A&M again. LOL. Would love some Davis, Hogg, and Thomas on my squad.

Titans team owner will lose interest soon. Sons are out of system.

College station is pretty horrible place for guys that are used to Dallas. Stay tuned for some drama in aggieland.

I am originally from a small town in Tx (PROUD to call it home). I found College Station to be miserably dull and mindless even before "moving to the BIG city", so I cannot fathom.... I have LOTS of die hard Aggies (and Longhorns, my sister) in my family, so no hard feelings just honest opinion.

Don't forget they can always make friends with VDukes across the street at Blinn to add to the drama #Whoop :-/ Having to hear #whoop would make me want to leave...

Intersting read on Kenny Troutt and Texas Titans, and it seems like once his youngest is done, he will move onto something else.

I'm not sure if you're being serious or just trolling now.

How is thinking our class is criminally undervalued around here trolling? I stand by what I wrote. I like their bigs more, but we closed the gap substantially w/Simeon. I like our wings and guards more.

Okay, but I don't think Hogg and Foster are in the same ballpark, and you know that too.

I'm not an expert on Jarreys game but I've always been underwhelmed by Hogg. This class is our first that has eligibility in mind, but also 4 year contributors. If we keep cleaning up w transfers, it's the perfect kind of class for the way we build. I don't think rankings touch how good this class is for the direction of the program.
