This would create a vacancy at Georgia.
I think Richt is using A&M for leverage with UGA. Even with Texas recruits, I don't see how this is anything more than a lateral move at best for him. Recruiting the state of Texas isn't going to be any easier as a member of the SEC. UT is ALWAYS going to be #1 down there regardless of the conference A&M is in and they will continue to compete for recruits against LSU, Tech, an auto-BCS TCU, Oklahoma, and OK State. In addition, the recruiting pipeline has now been farther widened for the SEC.

Anyone ever been to College Station,Texas? If I were a 5* recruit in the state of Texas that didn't grow up rooting for a specific school and I was being recruited by LSU, Texas, Georgia, and A&M, A&M would be my last choice. By far, unless they had a phenomenal coach. Mark Richt is not that coach.

It doesn't matter how bad a big program is, it's always a big deal for the in-state mid-major if it defeats the traditional powerhouse.

For the University of Toledo, it sure would have been. You really aren't knowledgeable about football outside of the Bayou, are you? :p

Considering it was Toledo and the fact Ohio State hasn't lost to an Ohio school in a long, long time, yes.

Losing Beckman hurts but the interim Head Coach Matt Campbell has been rated the top recruiter in the MAC for the past 2 or 3 years. I really am hoping that we consider keeping Coach Campbell full time.

I know his father was the one who said the legendary "Playoffs"" rant, but can you imagine Jim Jr. doing a "Rose Bowl?" rant.... LOL!

Guys, this doesn't mean belicheck to Houston. This means that there was a rumor on twitter.

Thank you.

Urban Meyer is stepping down from OSU to take the Houston job. Going back to mid-major.

There is some talent there, just need a coach who isn't a complete fuck up.
