First we stole their coach. Now let’s get one of their legacies. 

Still remember his dad’s throat slashing gesture during the bonfire game.  Not the kid’s fault, but tough for me to get on board with the idea of him coming to Texas.

Don’t put the sins of the father on the son.

That's your problem. The rest of us want to win.

The 1999 game? His dad was 12.

If I recall correctly could Jar Michael Finely be his uncle

You’re right, my bad.  It’s hard to keep the fat A&M running backs separated in my mind.  It was Ja’Mar Toombs, not Lane.

Plus almost 25 years ago.  No way I would hold a grudge that long.

25 years not enough time to forget ol' JaPORKskie Lane.

But BIG for his age, no doubt

The refrigerator!  Yes, Lane is definitely going to commit to Texas. That will be so funny.

If it makes it sound better, we could also say that JerMichael Finley's nephew decomitted from aggy.

Lane Jr.

batting .588 and  57 RBIs. 1.789 OPS 

61 stolen bases

Doesn’t matter. Not coming to college.

Why decommit and embarrass dad’s school if that’s the case?

Always good to have backup options, I guess.
 

But if he stays healthy he’s not stepping foot on campus. Many schools, including Texas, feel this way.

I like that embarrass his dad’s school part though.

This is a better question than I think many understand. Dad was a very good player for aggy. Not an all time great but very good and did play at the next level for a short time. With that being said, Jr could have stayed committed and after he is drafted in the first round just gone pro. Why does he decommit? Was it that Schloss left? Did he feel betrayed? Or did he realize that aggys are weird and cult like?
