Texas A&M landed one of the best recruiting classes in the country for the 2022 cycle, and head coach Jimbo Fisher didn’t hesitate to rebut rumors suggesting the program paid players a hefty sum via name, image and likeness rules to commit. 

“That had nothing to do with this class. … This was hard work by our staff,” he said during an appearance on CBS Sports’ national signing day show. “… It’s insulting to the kids who come here that you insinuate that. And people insinuate that off things that were taken off a message board BroBible by a guy named Sliced Bread, whoever the heck that is, who has no clue about what goes on.”
