SA Express-News: Aggies receive TCU transfer

COLLEGE STATION — Texas A&M announced the signing of six linebackers this week, including one who already has earned playing time for a Big 12 school: A.J. Hilliard, who transferred from TCU.

"He reached out to us and wanted to come back (closer to home)," Aggies coach Kevin Sumlin said of the Klein Oak High product. "He can really help us — he can run."

Hilliard, who is 6-foot-2 and 210 pounds, played in 11 games last year for the Horned Frogs and collected a lone tackle.

Translation, good raw talent, can't handle the expectation of a Patterson defense.

He'll be fine sitting on the bench at college station.

Good bye and good luck.

I agree with Punter.

In the trade of Hilliard for CEL I think we come out ahead, and that's not counting the expected benefits of having Coach Luper out there on the campaign trail.

Kid was homesick and the feeling that it wasn't working out was obviously mutual since GP let him go. Good luck to him at A&M. Sorry it didn't work out. There should be no hard feelings from Frog fans.
