Texas A&M's #1 class of all time ... 3 years later

4 of the top 5 probbaly going to be top 60 picks in this draft. Just not from ATM.

I was wondering where they went and what they did wherever.

Coaching change and likely some of them not playing as much as they felt they should probably contributed to some departures.

Any which way you look at it, what a massive waste of money. Then again, that's sort of how I feel about the NIL era in general.

If I was loaded to where I could donate whatever I wanted to the school, it wouldn't be for sports. It would be something lasting that would positively affect all the students.

We did not boot JHH and Roberts. We wanted Roberts but he left because he wanted more playing time, despite him being in line to have more playing time. JHH left because he wanted more NIL, we gave that money to Barrow. Idk why people keep running with this narrative that we encouraged every single transfer to leave. Same with Colby Young. We wanted to keep Colby, but we weren't willing to pony up more money to keep him here. Pretty much replaced him with Sam Brown.
It seems to me we just replaced guys with equal talent specifically on the d line
 
Our defense was poor this year. Mario missed on a lot of evals -- transition class, 2022 and 2023 classes and his evaluation of players that got encouraged to leave like the SMU crew. If we kept and developed some of those losses we need to supplement less.

Many Mario defenders keep on trustin the evals in the face of clear reviews showing his evals and development are often mid.
agree, there are 11 x hurricanes on SMU, and so made all conference ACC. Their defense went head-to-head with Clemson defense, with a bunch of our non-culture players. SMU defense, was the number 1 scoring defense in the ACC, they were physical, and most of their other portal additions were from G5 schools like, Temple, Fresno, etc.
