Casey Poe<\/a><\/strong> returned to Texas A&M<\/a><\/strong> over the weekend as On3\u2019s top-rated interior offensive lineman got a closer look at one of the cornerstone football programs in his home state.<\/p>\n

Poe, the No. 32 overall player<\/a><\/strong> in the On300 for the 2024 recruiting class, was in College Station for the Aggies\u2019 scrimmage on Saturday, which also opened the door for sit-down conversations with both Jimbo Fisher<\/a><\/strong> and offensive line coach Steve Addazio<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Both coaches took advantage of their time with the 6-foot-4.5, 285-pound mauling lineman from East Texas with back-to-back 90-minute meetings.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe visit went well,\u201d Poe told On3<\/strong>. \u201cI liked the intensity and the hyper-focus (attention) to details they have going on at practice.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe talked with Coach Fisher and Coach Addazio for an hour to an hour and a half a piece about how badly they truly want,\u201d he continued. \u201cWe\u2019re just building relationships with each other and getting to know one another better.\u201d<\/p>\n

One factor looms large for Poe<\/h2>\n

Poe, a top-150 recruit on the On3 Industry Ranking<\/a><\/strong>, has been well-traveled this spring. He\u2019s made stops at Georgia, LSU and Auburn, as well as in-state to Texas Tech to open April before making his way to Texas A&M this past weekend.<\/p>\n

After exploring several major contenders outside of the Lone Star State, Poe has been in Lubbock and College Station on consecutive weekends. The elite offensive lineman noted that the highlight of his time back at Texas A&M was the attention to small details along those lines.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe really cut it down to the basics,\u201d Poe said of his conversations with the coaches at Texas A&M. \u201cI asked the small questions and we really got to know each other. They told me about why they got into coaching, and what it\u2019s like in their day-by-day, and I shared my aspersions and why I do what I do. My parents got the chance to talk and ask questions also.\u201d<\/p>\n

Family is playing a massive role in Poe\u2019s decision. The Lindale (Texas) High School blue-chipper has a national offer sheet, but in-state programs like Texas A&M have a unique advantage.<\/p>\n

\u201cA huge factor that they bring to the table is the proximity to home,\u201d Poe explained. \u201cBeing that close means when my family and really whoever from home wants to come to watch me play, they can. That\u2019s something a lot of other schools don\u2019t have.\u201d<\/p>\n

Poe checks in as the No. 142 overall player in the country, according to the On3 Industry Ranking<\/strong>, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companie<\/em>s.<\/p>\n
