No doubt . The saving grace may be that a whole lot of other rosters are in the same boat with the NIL/portal chaos. I just look forward to seeing all the different new players and how Bucky develops them into a team. I totally enjoyed watching them go from raw (UCF and Montana games come to mind) early last season to a well coordinated group by January . Also I don't expect to see any absolute train wrecks like the Oklahoma St game this year.

I agree on the celebration! Does need a little work.

Getting film to the coaches is what we're working on. Had to do a little digging but I think we found emails for a majority of the coaching staff and we'll be sending them emails with a link and game schedule for the live period in May.

We're also hoping that the team he's on now and the YouTube series he's a part of will help with getting more film in front of the coaches but also getting to know him as a person/player.

I know the roster limit is 15, but since McDermott was on the roster before April 2025 I would think that he's a designated student athlete, meaning he shouldn't count towards the roster limit. So I'm thinking that A&M can have 16 players on their roster. Only 15 of them can be on scholarship so that would leave 1 roster spot that can be used on a walk-on. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

Isn't Clemence listed at 6 -11?

If marco1510's son, a kid of a TexAgs poster, can somehow get a walk-on spot - then I hope Liucci and company find a way to put him on the site as an interview.

Final 4 / elite 8 team

So, are we officially done with the portal? I thought we had a spot or two left to fill. I keep updating to see if we've signed someone else, but nothing.

1 spot to fill out I believe.

I saw that we had a #10 ranking in the portal.

I have high hopes for Jamie's development

Sure looked like it. Hope he's giving Jamie some tips.

Only 151 days to go
