So you can never take TAMU for granted.... it would be wiser to expect the unexpected...... for Fall-2006, the ones who got in were IITians or BITSians....although their profiles weren't "stellar", and was perhaps at par with other applicants.
no harm in getting one reco from the boss.... it would give the "variety"...because anyway u r goinna submit 2 recos from profs.

In fact, as a general rule, u should remove the notion of 'safe schools' from your mind
