2024 Jasper linebacker Tyanthony Smith commits to Texas A&M

The same program that sent Red Bryant to Texas A&M back in 2003 is sending the Aggies another elite defender as Jasper linebacker Tyanthony Smith‍ has announced his intentions to continue his football career in College Station.

The 6-foot-1, 210-pounder let his decision be known today via social media, and in doing so, Smith becomes the 14th commit of the 2024 class. 

After having offers slowly trickle in throughout his junior season, the tackling machine from just off the south banks of Lake Sam Rayburn has seen his stock soar with a combination of outstanding tape, a rapidly improving frame and sideline-to-sideline playmaking ability. Smith portrays a real nose for the football. He’s aggressive at the point of contact and wants to play a physical brand of ball, but he’s also adept in pass coverage — using his length and instincts to match up with receivers and tight ends.

You can view his junior tape below.

 

Smith chooses the Aggies over scholarship offers from LSU, Oklahoma, USC, Texas, Auburn and plenty of others.

Keep it locked to TexAgs Premium for a further breakdown on this big defensive addition for the Aggies.

"I silently committed to USC and when I told Coach Durkin, he looked me in the eyes and told me he didn't care and he was gonna recruit me until I decided to leave. After that, I knew who was who … that right there made it easier. Way easier.."

Quote:

"It's a blessing," Smith said. "As a young kid I never thought I'd be committed to Texas A&M. I always was a Texas or TCU fan. Once I got over there and saw what's important and best for me, it changed."

Jimbo doesn't get 'em all at once or early, but when they come in they tend to come in small bunches. He ain't gonna Mack Brown it and get 20 signees in three weeks then call it a season and kick up his feet, he keeps working right up til the bell.

Cope, boy. Maybe I could use the word "big" rather than huge, but any linebacker we're getting who legit could be all-SEC here is a huge get in reality given our past misses. It's our only weak position on defense and is difficult to recruit including the portal.

This kid is seriously better than the .94 rated LB Gullette the Sips got over us last cycle who looked too slow on film.

I hope you are right. I am a bit weary of our euphoria with every recruiting cycle.
Yep, LBs are good.
