In the Off-season, the TAMU Athl Dept ripped up Jimbo's 10 yr $75million Contract and gave him a new 10yr $95million Contract, this for a Coach that hasn't even sniffed the CFP while Coaching there, you don't think Alums that raise that kind of Money for Coaching Salaries don't have a network of bagmen to go out and get Elite, high-level, Recruits on the OLine.
My guess is a brand new Ford F-150, $500K+ spread out over their first 2 seasons on Campus and a better Job for parents, guardians, or Relatives, depending on who is in need.
Assuming that the Player wants to Major in Business, which one do you take, the heavyweight maybes of our GT- 40 yr decision, or the guarantees in "real time" of Playing in the SEC at a place like Bama, LSU, UGA, UF, Auburn, etc?
There's a good reason those T-Fr OLs played so great, and it wasn't because of special instruction from being "coached up", maybe they bring a lot of raw natural talent to the Table.
