I'm about to head over to Melissa, should be about 8:15 when guys start to arrive. Here's a rough schedule of the day's action-Defensive Line/Offensive Line: 8:45-11:15 a.m.-Linebackers/Running Backs: 9:45 a.m.-12:15 p.m.-Quarterbacks/Wide Receivers/Defensive Backs: 11:15 a.m.-2:15 p.m.They will be measured and tested. Those results are not posted but I'll work to see what I can get. They'll also do 1-on-1s and position drills. Typical camp stuff. Here's some thoughts and notes and guys to watchPre-camp MVP PredictionsQB: Peyton Houston, Shreveport (LA) Evangel Christian - polished, accurate, big armRB: KJ Edwards, Carthage (TX) - versatile skillset with burst and speed to shine WR: Trenton Yancey, Duncanville (TX) - A strong physical build and an explosive athlete capable of creating separation as well as making the contested circus catch. OL: John Turntine, Crowley (TX) North Crowley - light on his feet, technically sound, great flexibility, powerful handsDL: Khyren Haywood, Denton (TX) Guyer - speed on the interior with an arsenal of moves to win in one-on-onestends to show well in one-on-ones which is always a question for LBs in these settingsDB: John Meredith, Euless (TX) Trinity - length and speed and the size to get physicalSome More Pre-camp SuperlativesMost likely to pass the eye test: Myson Johnson-Cook, DeSoto (TX) - checks in at a solid 6-foot-3, 220Sleeper capable of emerging strong: DE Landon Barnes, Duncanville (TX) - the offers are starting to Out of State standout: OL Evan Goodwin, Little Rock (AR) Pulaski Academy - caught my eye last summer on the camp circuit, earned his Texas A&M offer in June, and one of the best in ArkansasIntrigued to see: OL Chase Elrod, Seminole (TX) - 6-7, 265 with Baylor and Texas Tech offersSurprised I haven't mentioned him yet: QB Kavian Bryant, Palestine (TX) Westwood - one of the top prospects in attendance, and he tends to shine on the big stageSome quick questions-Will Legend Bey work at other positions? He is listed at QB, but has embraced the idea of being recruited as an ATH. If he does, look for him to line up at WR. -What will be highest performing position? My bet is on a stacked OL group with several of the state's best, but WR is really strong as well.-Who is the guy not mentioned yet TexAgs subs should watch out for? If WR Kaydon Finley and DE KJ Ford are in action this weekend, expect them to do what they tend to do which is handle business in a dominant manner.-Who is the prospect without a Texas A&M offer, Aggie fans could hear quite a bit about today? RB Christian Rhodes is a big back at 6-1, 200 with track speed and a versatile skillset. Committed to SMU, but this is an environment he could easily shine.-Who will emerge from off the radar to take home MVP honors? It happens every year. Last year Noah Best and Emeka Ugorji earned OL MVPs and Ali Vinson took home LB honors. In 2023 Paul Mencke took home DB honors alongside a young Jermaine Bishop. It seems to happen every year and I look for the trend to continue.Prospects with Texas A&M offersQB Kavian Bryant, Palestine (TX) Westwood (2027) QB Peyton Houston, Shreveport (LA) Evangel Christian (2027)RB KJ Edwards, Carthage (TX)RB Izayah Lee, Lancaster (TX)RB Victor Scott, Lancaster (TX) (2027)RB Lathan Whisenton, Waco (TX) Midway (2027)RB Myson Johnson-Cook, DeSoto (TX) (2027)WR Kenny Darby, Bossier City (LA) Airline - LSU commitWR Boobie Feaster, DeSoto (TX)WR Kaydon Finley, Aledo (TX)WR Mason James, Norman (OK) NorthWR Dequane Prevo, Texarkana (TX) Liberty-Eylau - Arkansas commitWR Brayden Robinson, Red Oak (TX)WR Zion Robinson, Mansfield (TX)WR London Smith, Waco (TX) University - Baylor commitWR Jeremiah Douglas, Crandall (TX) (2027)WR Trenton Yancey, Duncanville (TX) (2027)WR JD Edwards, Carthage (TX) (2028)WR Damarion Mays, Crowley (TX) North Crowley (2028)TE Zachery Turner, Duncanville (TX)TE Jeramie Cooper, Crowley (TX) North Crowley (2027)OL Noah Best, Midlothian (TX)OL Drew Evers, Flower Mound (TX)OL Evan Goodwin, Little Rock (AR) Pulaski AcademyOL Zaden Krempin, Prosper (TX)OL Felix Ojo, Mansfield (TX) Lake RidgeOL John Turntine, Crowley (TX) North CrowleyOL DeMarrion Johnson, Tyler (TX) Legacy (2027)OL Peyton Miller, Anna (TX) (2027)OL Jasper Ngokwere, Richardson (TX) (2027)OL Brian Swanson, Dallas (TX) South Oak Cliff (2027)DT Anthony Kennedy, Little Rock (AR) Southwest - Missouri commitDT Jaimeon Winfield, Richardson (TX)DT Khyren Haywood, Denton (TX) Guyer (2027)DT JD Jones, Dallas (TX) South Oak Cliff (2027)DT KAdrian Redmond, Corinth (TX) Lake Dallas (2027)DE KJ Ford, Duncanville (TX)DE Dawayne Jones, Tulsa (OK) Booker T Washington (2027)DE Zane Rowe, Denton (TX) Guyer (2027)LB Jakore Smith, Little Rock (AR) ParkviewLB Braylon Williams, Arlington (TX) Lamar (2027)CB Ryan Gilbert, Forney (TX) North ForneyCB Bryson Brown, Owasso (OK)CB Taelyn Mayo, Lewisville (TX) (2027)CB John Meredith, Euless (TX) Trinity (2027)S Jordan Deck, Frisco (TX) Lone StarS Donovan Webb, Frisco (TX) Panther Creek S Davontrae Kirkland, Waco (TX) University (2027)S Cooper Witten, Argyle (TX) Liberty Christian (2027)S James Foster, Lancaster (TX) (2028)

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 answered some FAQs, shared some names of in-state prospects and more.

The Texas A&M defensive line class is coming into focus with the Aggies adding another key piece to the puzzle on the defensive front. Jermaine Kinsler brings a unique blend of athleticism and potential to the table and gives the Aggies another big win on the recruiting front. Kinsler checks in at 6-foot-6.5, 265 pounds according to Bergen Catholic head coach Vito Campanile and he has played a number of positions on both offense and defense for one of the top high school programs in the country. He is also a sight to see on the basketball court. So, he brings position versatility to the table with the capability of playing up and down the line of scrimmage, and his commitment gives the Aggies a defensive line class of four if you include LB/edge Samu Moala. The Aggies also have big standout defensive tackle Trashawn Ruffin out of North Duplin High in Calypso, N.C., and 6-foot-4, 245-pound Jordan Carter from Douglas County in Douglasville, Ga., who brings a twitchy and powerful presence at defensive end.The Aggies are in on several standout prospects and the question turns to who and how many and which can be a tricky task and a moving target.Let's look at the breakdown of prospects with offers who have recently visited, have visits coming up, or have scheduled or are working to schedule official visits. Texas A&M commitsDT Trashawn Ruffin, Calypso (NC) North DuplinDL Jermaine Kinsler, Oradell (NJ) Bergen CatholicDE Jordan Carter, Douglasville (GA) Douglas CountyLB/Edge Samu Moala, Lawndale (CA) LeuzingerDT TargetsDylan Berymon, Monroe (LA) Ouachita Parish - Texas A&M is in his top schools, OVing June 20Lamar Brown, Baton Rouge (LA) University - Visited several times, Texas A&M among his top schools OVing June 13Jaimeon Winfield, Richardson (TX) - Took his first A&M visit in January, looking to returnDE TargetsJamarion Carlton, Temple (TX) - Visited this fall, and attended Jr Day in JanuaryZion Elee, Baltimore (MD) St. Frances Academy - Maryland commit, five-star, visited in the fall, still listening planning OV this summerKJ Ford, Duncanville (TX) - a top in-state target, visited several times over the last two years, making spring visit plansJaReylan McCoy, Tupelo (MS) - former LSU commit, making plans for a summer OV and a spring visitBryce Perry-Wright, Buford (GA) - longtime target, already has an OV scheduled for June 20Nolan Wilson, Picayune (MS) - visited this fall, looking to return this springOLB/Edge TargetsTank Jones, Mobile (AL) St. Paul's Episcopal - long time target who has taken multiple visits, continues to watch A&M closely.Some of these guys can flow between categories, but that is a pretty standard look. Also, you can always you can count on a few prospects emerging over the course of the recruiting cycle. Right now, with who the Aggies are in on and with DL always being a priority position, I would say one to two more defensive tackle types, a couple of more true defensive ends who can both come off the edge and put their hand in dirt, and another edge/OLB. So, that's 3-4 DTs, 3 DEs, and 1-2 OLB/Edge guys. Of course, you also reserve a best available spot because the Aggies are in on some of the nation's very best.
