21:32 What is the value of getting as many as you did to enroll early?
22:25 How would you evaluate A&M’s NIL efforts to this point?
22:49 How unique was the relationship you had with DJ Sanders and how much did his loyalty mean to you?
24:15 There’s reports that some states have already been able to go into rev share but can’t here, is that a challenge for you guys?
25:30 You had two quarterbacks enter the portal yesterday, thoughts on them and on the position moving forward?
27:11 In a perfect world, how far out do you start your evaluation and identification process?
28:36 What kind of player will you be looking for to possibly replace a few starters at defensive end?
29:46 Yesterday Jerome Myles announced he wouldn’t sign early, what went into closing that deal and what kind of an impact can he have on the program?
31:00 Were you surprised when you lost a big QB commitment and how soon did you identify Brady Hart?
31:38 You talked about how calm this day was, is the recruiting process exactly where you want it to be and in the day of NIL what does A&M have to offer that others don’t?
33:26 I know you can’t talk about preferred walk-ons, but can you talk about the local interest in the program and how big that is when you’re battling in state and in conference schools?
34:32 In a world where it seems a lot of kids are focusing on one sport you seem to have signed a lot of high level multi-sport athletes. Is there anything about their skill set that attracts you to that type of athlete?
36:25 Is Jamarion Morrow a player that might be able to touch both sides of the ball?
37:06 With Will Lee returning for next year how big is his leadership for that group going to be?
38:22 You mentioned the guys you’re going after and character being really important…how do you identify character?
40:00 Last year you were extremely active in the portal rebuilding the roster. What do you anticipate your approach will be with the portal?
