"Down in College Station, Aggies incumbent Zach Calzada transferred to Auburn and Jimbo Fisher took in his first quarterback transfer since arriving at Texas A&M. Redshirt sophomore Haynes King won the quarterback battle out of camp in 2021, but the former Texas 6A high school state football champion was overshadowed by two new additions to the quarterback room this offseason. 

LSU transfer Max Johnson only completed 13 of his 31 passes, but he hit for two touchdowns: a 40-yard pass to receiver Jalen Preston and a 13-yarder to tight end Blake Smith. He completed six straight passes in the middle of the game and had the most consistent control of the offense. Freshman quarterback Conner Weigman flashed his impressive upside right away, throwing a 32-yard touchdown to Yulkeith Brown on his third pass attempt. Weigman completed just 7 of 19 passes, but six of them went for more than 10 yards. 

King, conversely, completed 11 of 33 passes and had an interception on each side while playing for both teams. He only threw for 130 yards, good enough for 3.9 yards per pass attempt in a disappointing performance for a signal-caller entering his third season in the offense. "

Sounds like the bar is a little low at QB at aggy.

Seems a shame that all that 5* receiver talent is going to be wasted since they can't get the ball to him. ? ??

A combined 31 for 83 which isn't bad if it's a batting average.

 
Yes, there is a limit.
Seems like if they don't limit the number of visits the players take, they made need to not limit the number a school can host. I am imaging that the top kids would be taking 10+ official visits, and using up spots that less highly recruited kids could otherwise use.

IMO, a recruit will take one or two visits to places he's seriously considering. The other three are just vacations.

Why not? A new place you've not seen before. They put you up in nice accommodations and treat you like a king.

My point is, the top recruits will take more than 5 officials, which I agree with you, they definitely should. The issue becomes if schools are limited on the number of officials they can host, the top dogs will use up all the schools visits and lower tier recruits will miss out. I'm thinking that if they remove the limits on players, they also need to remove the limit on schools.
