Here are your white Aggies starting for Mike Sherman and Co. this year. QB Ryan Tannehill took over halfway through last year, and Texas A&M exploded on offense, getting a great end to the year. Ryan Swope hopefully will be Tannehill's No.1 Target this year. The tackle tandem of Luke Joeckel and Jake Matthews should be a great one the next few years for the Aggies. Both of these guys should be playing in the NFL, after claiming the Aggie's starting tackle spots as true freshmen. Caleb Russell is the leading candidate to start at the "Joker" spot, where Von Miller started last year. Some white athletes to look for some playing time are QB Matt Joeckel, QB Johnny Manziel, C Danny Baker, RG Evan Eike, DE Spencer Nealy, and SS Clay Honeycutt. Since 2005, the guys from Aggieland have started 8, 9, 8, 7, 9, and 10 last year. So this year is pretty much par for the course for Texas A&M.

Offense
QB- Ryan Tannehill
WR- Ryan Swope
TE- Hutson Prioleau
LT- Luke Joeckel
RG- Shep Klinke
RT- Jake Matthews

Defense
JOKER- Caleb Russell
ILB- Kyle Mangan - in a fight for the position

Yeah Swope did much better once Tannehill was playing qb. I wish they would use Swope more as a hybrid wr/rb, like in a Percy Harvin role, he was on of the top backs when he came out imo. He rushed for over 1800 yards and 27 tds his senior year against tough competition in Texas.

You could see it coming. Sherman has been average at best for the Aggies, but moving to the SEC, they need someone even MORE casteon than Sherman. After all, Sherman has white players sprinkled around the roster, including Ryan Swope, who will now need to pack an additional 30 pounds onto his frame to be a proper SEC fullback/tight end/H back.

Maybe they can even move Swope to WSTD. This would be a huge show of respect for the proper SEC/HBCU traditions and values.
