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 discussed the weekend ahead for Texas A&M, a new offer at linebacker and more.

You may have missed it, but Texas A&M's newest commitment Kamarui Dorsey is planning to return to College Station for the South Carolina game. It will be the first time his mother has a chance to visit and he is excited to get her to town. San Antonio (TX) Roosevelt 2027 offensive lineman Kaeden Scott is also planning to visit. He too will be joined by his mother and they plan to get in town early to take in the sights. This will be his second trip to College Station this fall. He previously visited for the season opener against UTSA. Things are trending a different direction for another 2027 target. Waxahachie (TX) S JayQuan Snell has the Aggies in his top schools, but a few programs have made some significant moves in recent weeks. Ohio State made a very strong push up his list, to the point they claimed a lead at one point. Texas Tech has also made some moves. He is planning to visit Lubbock soon, and he could visit as soon as this weekend. It is a safe bet the Red Raiders will give him a lot to think about while he is in town. Texas is another program who continues to push hard there. Another top 2027 target has set a decision date. Summerville (GA) Chattooga DL Kadin Fife will announce between Texas A&M, Auburn, Georgia Tech, and Tennessee on November 21. The 6-5, 295-pound defender visited Texas A&M for the blackout game against Mississippi State, and the buzz behind Texas A&M was strong following his trip. As he approaches his decision date we continue to hear good things about Texas A&M's momentum. On the potential flip front, North Forney (TX) 2026 ATH Legend Bey is a target we have been watching since he committed to Tennessee over Texas A&M this summer. Over the weekend he was in Columbus, OH and following his recent visit the Buckeyes have had some strong momentum. He remains committed to Tennessee, but there has been a lot of smoke about potential movement. As for Texas A&M, he has been in communication with the staff over the course of the fall, but he has yet to visit or schedule a trip. Right now, the Aggies are fading, but I would not say things are done because a visit could go a long way in rejuvenating the interest on both sides,. Until then though I look for things to trend other directions.

With the majority of the work on Texas A&M's 2026 signing class already finished, the focus has started to shift to what Mike Elko & Co. are doing in 2027. The Aggies already have four '27 commits, and there are a few other notable trends worth following.
