I hope you don’t get tired of us reminding you that Texas A&M’s 2023 football season is now just a mere three weeks away, and as the Aggie’s ninth fall practice took place on Friday afternoon inside the new Coolidge Football Performance Center in the Graham athletic center, which is quite the beauty.

While the all-encompassing quarterback battle between sophomore Conner Weigman and senior southpaw Max Johnson has yet to conclude, both talented signal-callers continued showing off their skill sets while tossing passes to the Aggies’ talented receiving core members. At the same time, Weigman’s natural connection with star wideout Evan Stewart is a sign that the duo’s momentum from the latter half of the 2022 campaign hasn’t declined in the slightest.

The defense went through their regular drills while the linebacker core, as TexAgs recruiting analyst David Sandhop points out, looked much deeper than many of us assumed they’d before the important addition of former Jackson State LB Jurriente Davis earlier this year.

Like most teams this fall, the Aggies are currently dealing with a few bumps and bruises across the roster, though nothing significant is worth mentioning at this moment. Overall, the team has continued to progress on both sides of the ball, and with more practices to go, various position-based questions will soon be answered.

Here are the best highlights from Texas A&M’s ninth fall practice.
