Also really hurts the odds of having a QB sit and develop and wait his turn. I love having a qb redshirt first year, play limited snaps in year 2, and then get 2 or 3 solid years as a starter and get drafted. That scenario is going to be almost nonexistent

    That's a good reason for implementing the 4 games Red Shirts, to keep them engaged and interested.

    Conferences can still force them to sit a year. They simply don't have to ask coach if it's Ok. The writing is typically on the wall, regardless of that particular rule.

        Bragging about the recruiting this time of year is like bragging about the fish you are going to catch in the tournament tomorrow at the captains meeting. Fun, but ultimately meaningless. Talk to me when they are on campus and have actually done something on the field.

            Did they get everyone enrolled for the summer from this past cycle?

                66 of every 100 are admitted to Aggie. That wasn't an issue.

                  The entrance requirements for athletes at Texas are the same at Texas A&M. State minimums are all that is required.

                    It wasn't the point. I asked if they all made it to campus.

                      Than I don't understand that statement about general student admissions rates when you were asking about football players making it on campus.

                        He was being a smart-*** about grades. It’s the second largest public school in America and has one of the highest acceptance rates. Regardless of athletic standards.

                        Good for the network I suppose.

                        I’m resourceful, checked for myself. It’s always good when they all get enrolled for summer: less headache for Jimbo.

                            What's more important quality or quantity?

                              The 3* Charlie reference comes to mind.

                                Just asking since they used to say "hide your 5*". Doesn't seem to matter anymore.
