Key notes from Stephen McGee interview

  • A&M has a very experienced offensive line, really good running backs and a mobile quarterback returning for his second season. Receivers like Ainias Smith, man, he was my favorite. There are some good horses in that stall at the tight end position. Jalen Wydermyer was very impressive to me as a young guy. He got stiffer as he got older. I like the current tight end room. I like Amari Niblack and Kiotti Armstrong.
