Texas A&M lands a commitment from Carver (AL) LB Ke'Shun Brown
Jimbo Fisher and the Aggies continue to roll on the recruiting trail. Today, they picked up a verbal commitment from Carver (AL) LB Ke'Shun Brown. This comes on the heels of Brown's official visit to Texas A&M this past weekend.
A few short Saturday notes
Two more unofficial visitors snuck into College Station today: 2019 Ft Bend Dulles ATH Ainias Smith and 2020 commit Jordan Jefferson.Smith looks like he's still planning on signing in February. It'll be interesting to see where the Ags are at when that time comes.Another HS name popping up at corner is Jay Ward. He's a 6-1, 175 pound defensive back from Moultrie, Georgia and Colquitt County HS. Ward decommitted from Kentucky last month and has since seen his offer list explode - picking up Ohio St and Florida St since he made the step away from the Wildcats. He's on an official visit in Baton Rouge this weekend.Got a report that Carver (AL) LB Ke'shun Brown is loving his visit so far. We'll have more after he leaves town tomorrow, but there may be some momentum building in this one. New name to watch in 2020 is Tomball Memorial OL/DL Braedon Nutter. His junior film is on the defensive front, but a lot of schools (including A&M) have expressed intrigue about him as a guard/center prospect. He's begun drill work to make the transition. I saw him workout today and was super impressed with his feet and explosion. He's got a real shot to be a P5 center. Measures in at 6-4, 290. Our staff has heard positive stuff on the Derick Hunter front today. I'm still calling this one a toss up and giving a slight edge to Florida, but it sounds like the Aggies are giving him a lot to think about. Be tuned on Wednesday for this one.
Friday night recruiting notes
Just settling in at my buddy's house in The Woodlands and thought I'd pass along a few notes before I hit the hay. -I saw 2020 DE target James Sylvester out of Newton tonight. This kid is loaded with the tools to be a dominant edge player at the next level. He took over the line of scrimmage in the second half to help propel Newton to another state finals appearance. After the game, he spoke extremely highly of Terry Price and said he loves the way Jimbo Fisher is turning the dials in College Station. Sylvester said he'd definitely taken notice of what Coach Fisher and company are doing on the recruiting trail this cycle. To me, I'd have Sylvester as the number one defensive linemen in 2020. He'll be back in College Station for a junior day soon. -Katy Seven Lakes DE David Ugwoegbu arrived in College Station this evening around 6:30 for his 48 hour official visit. Carver (AL) LB Ke'shun Brown made it in tonight, as well. -Here's something of interest: our recruiting team has learned that the Aggies have made some inquiries with Amite (LA) stud Devonta Lee. Could the Ags get the multi-talented athlete on campus in January? I wouldn't say yes at this moment, but it is something to maybe watch for. Lee camped at A&M last summer. He's actually very similar to recent defection Christian Harris both in terms of their skillsets and projectability.
Two more LB names
Hearing more buzz as the Aggies continue their search at linebacker.The first name is Ke'shun Brown out of Carver, Alabama. The 6-0, 220 pounder has offers from some high end programs like Tennessee, Oregon, Alabama, and LSU. Sideline to sideline type of player that's considered one of the better defenders in the state. Another name emerging in the heart of SEC country is St. Augustine (FL) LB Tye Edwards. He's 6-3, 215 pounds and already holds an offer from the Aggies. Georgia, Alabama, Oregon, and Auburn are right in the thick of things here. At some point, I believe you'll see one, if not many more, of the names mentioned this past 5-6 days on campus before that Dec 19th early signing date.
