Though only sophomores, Myles Garrett and Kyle Allen represent two of the Aggies' elite talents — and two of their most prominent leaders in 2015. But they also represent an even grander, rarer ideal we may see realized in 2017.

There is, believe it or not, a statistical category that places the Aggies among the likes of Eastern Michigan, Colorado and Georgia State. A&M will have to change it ... and by all accounts, it now has every tool to do so.

A mere week separates the Aggies from the summer months. The results from last Thursday's situational scrimmage and the three practices remaining will combine to begin the tale of what to expect when fall camp arrives.

During Wednesday's edition of TexAgs Radio, former A&M and NFL defensive back Jordan Pugh joined the show to give out his first PUGH award, highlight the play of A&M's defensive line in 2015 and more.

Two-thirds of the way through an important spring, A&M has results both expected and surprising to work with. A number of Aggies have five more practices to state their case — and bolster their positions' outlooks.

John Chavis. Kyle Allen. Myles Garrett. Justin Evans. Noteworthy visitors. Tackling drills. And we're only two days into an anticipated spring camp. Need we really say more?

News of A&M player run-ins with the law were far too frequent in the 2014 offseason, and it surely hampered the program's chances of challenging in the West. There is one trophy the Aggies likely won't win this year — and that's an excellent thing.

An 8-5 finish and reliance on youth provide ripe fodder for those who doubt Texas A&M. To some, the Aggies aren't yet ready to threaten for the top place in the nation's best conference. But to the trained eye, they're in prime position.

A foundation for the future laid, the Aggies move swiftly on to the 2016 class where they've already made a statement with their start. To cap it all off, Liucci forecasts future strengths, likely A&M targets and current team progress.

On Monday, Gabe and Olin looked back on the 2014 season and doled out awards for 'Song of the Year (best game)', 'Single of the Year (best play)', 'Producer of the Year (best position coach)' and many more.

A&M's Freshman All-American defensive end was having some fun on the Rec basketball courts when his fellow student decided to film himself getting "Myles'd" ... or something.

The difference between a season-ending loss and a launching-pad win rests in the hands of a pair of lesser-discussed Aggies and the cast that surrounds them. Who must win their individual battle to seal the deal?

A great deal will depend on the defenses in Monday's matchup of Air Raid offenses. Facing a talented West Virginia roster, Texas A&M will rely on its young stars — but the key might be held by two upperclassmen.

With a Biletnikoff finalist and the ability to run the ball, the West Virginia offense has been proven to be explosive. Will interim A&M DC Mark Hagen and his players be up to the task of limiting the Mountaineers?

As it often did this season, the Aggie defense played just well enough in spurts against LSU to make its struggles against the run all the more frustrating. The takeaways from the game could help in remaking it.

None have proven to be the bane of the Aggie offense quite like the Tigers, but this year's are two very different teams. In a clash with many strength-on-strength battles, a select few will decide the victor.

The Aggie roster is dominated by young talent, but a pair of upperclassmen have an opportunity to make a difference. Meanwhile, LSU's roster looks awfully familiar. Who will be remembered on Thanksgiving Night?

Whatever second chance the Aggies afforded their season with the Auburn win, they then squandered. A final look begins with a defense that found a new level of defenseless in the game's most pivotal moments.
