Mike Elko and Co. are set to host their last visitors of the summer beginning Thursday with Friday's pool party/BBQ capping the busy summer recruiting festivities. As always this list is subject to change, and we will continue to update it as we gather information.Thursday2025sS Trey McNutt III, Cleveland (OH) Shaker Heights2026sQB Ryder Lyons, Folsom (CA)RB DeZephen Walker, Raymore (MO) Raymore-PeculiarWR Aaron Gregory, Douglasville (GA) Douglas CountyOL Vincent Johnson, Sulphur Springs (TX)DE Jordan Carter, Douglasville (GA) Douglas County2027sRB Landen Williams-Callis, Richmond (TX) Randle WR Antayvious Ellis, Crowley (TX)********Friday (Pool Party)CommitsQB Husan Longstreet, Corona (CA) CentennialWR Kelshaun Johnson, Hitchcock (TX)OL Connor Carty, Prosper (TX) OL Marcus Garcia, Denton (TX) RyanOL Josh Moses, Houston (TX) LegacyOL Jonte Newman, Cypress (TX) BridgelandOL Tyler Thomas, Dickinson (TX)DL Landon Rink, Cypress (TX) Cy-FairDL Chace Sims, Richmond (TX) RandleLB Noah Mikhail, La Verne (CA) Bonita LB Kelvion Riggins, Forney (TX) OLB Marco Jones, Danville (CA) San Ramon ValleyCB Jamar Beal-Goines, Phoenix (AZ) Desert EdgeCB Adonyss Currie, Lancaster (CA) Quartz HillCB Cobey Sellers, Pearland (TX) Shadow CreekNB Deyjhon Pettaway, Katy (TX) PaetowCB Ryan Gilbert, Forney (TX) North Forney - 2026S Markel Ford, Mesquite (TX) Horn - 2026K Colton Chmelar, College Station (TX) A&M Consolidated - PWODS Gray Evans, Houston (TX) Bellaire Episcopal - PWO2025sDL JJ Hanne, Rancho Santa Margarita (CA) Santa Margarita CatholicS Trey McNutt III, Cleveland (OH) Shaker Heights2026sRB KJ Edwards, Carthage (TX)WR Mike Brown, Houston (TX) LegacyWR Aaron Gregory, Douglasville (GA) Douglas CountyWR Travis Johnson, Chesapeake (VA) Oscar SmithWR Jalen Lott, Frisco (TX) Panther CreekWR Dequane Prevo, Texarkana (TX) Liberty-EylauWR London Smith, Waco (TX) UniversityOL Avery Morcho, Missouri City (TX) Fort Bend Ridge PointOL Nicolas Robertson, Klein (TX)OL John Turntine, Crowley (TX) North CrowleyDE Jamarion Carlton, Temple (TX)DE Jordan Carter, Douglasville (GA) Douglas County DE Jesse Ford, Arlington (TX) MartinDE JaReylan McCoy, Tupelo (MS)LB Joseph Credit, Pearland (TX)LB Cincere Johnson, Cleveland (OH) GlenvilleLB Samu Moala, Lawndale (CA) LeuzingerLB Payhton Porter, Melissa (TX)LB Jaquez Wilkes, Wadley (AL)CB Jordan Thomas Oradell (NJ) Bergen CatholicDB Bralan Womack, Flowood (MS) Hartfield AcademyS Jordan Deck, Frisco (TX) Lone StarATH Paris Melvin Jr, Cypress (TX) Cy Springs2027sWR Antayvious Ellis, Crowley (TX)WR Trenton Yancey, Arlington (TX) LamarTE Jeramie Cooper, Crowley (TX) North CrowleyATH Davontrae Kirkland, Waco (TX) UniversityA few quick notes-Committs RB Deondrae Riden, WR Tristan Norman, and TE Kiotti Armstrong are not expected to make it. They each have other obligations and have communicated their intentions to the staff so do not read too much into their absence. -If you are asking, I do think there is potential for a few top targets not currently on the list to pop in, but we will see as the weekend plays out.-Another couple of quick notes. Earlier this week OL Michael Fasusi told me he does not have any weekend plans. I am also not expecting DJ Sanders to make an appearance this weekend, but I continue to hear what Brauny has said about the Aggies being in an enviable position there.
Three Things: Spring ball visitors, DFW prospects and more
As he does every Friday morning, TexAgs' senior recruiting analyst Jason Howell offered up another round of his weekly recruiting thoughts. In this edition of his Three Things, Howell shared some thoughts on visitors this weekend as spring ball gets going and more.
Visitor List - March 22-23
It is expected to be a pretty big weekend with several top prospects in attendance. Below is the list we currently have. As always you can expect a few additions and a few guys who don't make it in for whatever reason so stay tuned for updates 2025sOL Josh Moses, Houston (TX) LegacyRB Chad Gasper, Katy (TX) JordanWR Kelshaun Johnson, Hitchcock (TX)WR Xavier Johnson, North Richland Hills (TX) RichlandTE Linkon Cure, Goodland (KS) TE Brock Schott, Leo (IN)TE Nicholas Townsend, Spring (TX) DeKaney TE Ethan Barbour, Alpharetta (GA)OL Desean Bryant, Duncanville (TX) - Baylor commitOL Blake Cherry, Owasso (OK)OL Michael Fasusi, Lewisville (TX)OL Josh Petty, Roswell (GA) Fellowship ChristianOL Logan Schram, Boerne (TX)OL Broderick Shull, Bixby (OK)OL Maddox Huber, Hamshire-Fannett (TX)DL Brandon Brown, Eau Gallie (FL) - Texas commitDL Trent Wilson, Upper Marlboro (MD) Dr. Henry WiseDL Jayden Woods, Shawnee (KS) Mill ValleyDL Smith Orogbo, Alief (TX) HastingsDL Ikechukwu Okafor, Alief (TX) HastingsDE/LB Keylan Abrams, DeSoto (TX)LB Noah Mikhail, La Verne (CA) BonitaCB Chris Ewald, Hollywood (FL) Chaminade-MadonnaCB Graceson Littleton, Tampa (FL) WhartonCB Rukeem Stroud, Tampa (FL) Tampa Bay TechCB LaRue Zamorano, Corona (CA) CentennialS Rashad Johnson, Bushnell (FL) South SumterS Sael Reyes, DeSoto (TX)ATH Jaquise Martin, Bryan (TX) Rudder2026sRB KD Jones, Jenks (OK)RB Keilan Chavies, Hutto (TX)WR Mason James, Norman (OK) NorthOL Canon Pickett, Tampa (FL) WhartonDE Kevin Ford.

Some Thursday Recruiting Notes
A new name I'm hearing on Texas A&M's radar is Dallas (TX) South Oak Cliff OL Emeka Ugorji. The 6-5, 280-pound standout has a 7-foot wingspan and was dominating presence in the trenches for the Golden Bears. He has received 18 offers since the end of the season. The P4 offers include Texas Tech, Baylor, Duke, SMU, TCU, Arizona State, Stanford, Kansas, and Houston and he has already scheduled official visits to Duke (June 14), Houston and Arizona State. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17614880/6537f5ce066228161834c565Mike Elko and his staff are set to host several top prospects this spring and we just got a few more big visit confirmations. Last week, I mentioned a late March unofficial visit from Albuquerque (NM) LB Mason Posa was looking good, and I have confirmed Posa has indeed scheduled an unofficial visit for March 29-30. The Aggies are also set to host a big 2026 visitor on March 30. Aledo (TX) wide receiver Kaydon Finley, the son of former Texas Longhorn Jermichael Finley, will be in College Station for his first visit. He is also eyeing a few April visits with Notre Dame, Orgon, Tennessee, and Ole Miss among the possible stops. Lastly we can confirm reports that the Aggies will host Tupelo (MS) 2026 DE JaReylan McCoy on March 23. McCoy is regarded as one of the top prospects in the 2026 class. At 6-7, 250 he holds offers from across the country and he was teammates with current Texas A&M Aggie Tristan Jernigan the last two years at Tupelo. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/15038655/654ba7f8d21b95135c79fdbc
