Looking Ahead: An in-depth analysis of potential 2021 offensive targets
With National Signing Day in the books, most of the 2020 Texas A&M class seems to be locked down. This means a lot of focus from the program and fans alike will turn to the upcoming class. We take a hard look at some 2021 top prospects and where they stand with the Aggies.
A few Friday notes
Dallas Kimball Ishmael Ibraheem has been firmly on the radar from Day 1 and I was told by sources close to his recruitment Ibraheem has been in contact with coach Rushing and is making plans to visit. I don't believe a date has been set but a March visit is something to watch out for. Texas and LSU are a few schools to watch there as well. The communication has also picked up between coach Henson and Duncanville OL Savion Byrd and I have been told plans for a spring visit are in the works. There was talk he might make the Super Bowl party weekend but the ride fell through. The Aggies recently offered and things continue to progress.The same can also be said for defensive ends David Abiara and Shemar Turner. Abiara recently put the Aggies in his top 7 and he has some family ties to the Texas A&M. It does sound like Notre Dame made a strong move after his recent visit, but he continues to look at his options. With Turner, the Aggies remain in strong contention according to my sources along with the likes of Alabama, LSU, Texas, and others. Also, Royse City WR Ketron Jackson told us he has been in touch with coach Craig and he plans to return very soon.The Aggies have also been active with several out of state targets. One prospect Brauny brought up recently is Scottsdale (AZ) Saguaro OL Bram Walden. I'm told by sources in Arizona that he has kept in close contact with coach Henson, and a visit is in the works for this spring. I don't believe a date has been set, but it sounds promising. Recent OL Connor Tollison of Jackson (MO) will make an unofficial visit to A&M for the spring game the April 17 weekend. I'm told by people in Missouri, coach Henson already has a strong bond with Tollison and has some ties to the area going back to his days coaching at Missouri. One source also said the Aggies are keeping an eye on Blue Springs (MO) OL Beau Stephens. He's another big OL (6-6, 320), with some offers from the likes of Iowa, Arkansas, and Michigan..
