As a native of Stephenville, Texas, Jarrett Stidham played college football in the state and even looked to continue that after leaving Baylor. On Thursday, the Auburn quarterback explained how exactly he wound up leaving the Lone Star State.
Stidham was asked about how Texas A&M recruited him after he left Baylor and played one year at McLennan Community College in Waco, Texas. Stidham explained that despite his efforts to go to another Texas school, the Aggies coaching staff didn’t exactly roll the red carpet out for him.
“[Beating Texas A&M last year] was very satisfying in College Station just because of how the whole recruiting thing went,” Stidham said.
