Just like a year ago, Texas A&M will host a number of its top underclassman targets for a Super Bowl party next weekend. Last season saw the Aggies pick up two commitments at the event but also gain momentum with quite a few others in the class as many committed not long after.
This year’s event will again be star-studded and the visitor list will have more names added to it throughout the week. Players like the North Shore trio listed in the ‘maybe’ column still need to figure out their plans for next weekend and likely won’t know for a little while.
Again, this list will see additions as we confirm more players, but these are ones that we have confirmed so far. The current class of 2020 commitments are all expected in town as well.
-2020 Fort Bend Marshall QB Malik Hornsby: Once very close to being an A&M commitment, the national top-100 dual-threat prospect is still very high on the Aggies. He still says he wants to take visits this spring though. He says it is relatively sure he will be in town.
-2020 Fort Bend Marshall RB/WRDevon Achane: You won’t find many more electrifying players in the open field in the class than Achane. A high school running back, he will be a slot receiver at the next level and is very high on A&M.
-2020 Cedar Hill Trinity Christian CBDwight McGlothern: The five-star prospect has seemingly spent more time in College Station than he has in his hometown. He will be making his second trip in three weekend. However, the Aggies have some competition for him with Alabama being a notable one.
-2020 Aledo RB Jase McClellan(Oklahoma commit): The five-star junior made a very early commitment to Oklahoma as a sophomore but has still remained in contact with the Aggies since. He has been to College Station a couple times and will be there again next weekend.
-2020 Muscle Shoals (Ala.) LB Jackson Bratton (Alabama commit): An early Alabama pledge, it will be hard to switch the four-star linebacker from his in-state pledge. However, he made plans to be in Aggieland shortly after being offered a few weeks back.
-2020 Houston C.E. King S Bryson Washington: The four-star safety was not able to make it with his Fast7v7 teammates last weekend, so he will make the trip for the Super Bowl party instead.
-2020 Bastrop Cedar Creek DE Alfred Collins: Perhaps the state’s best defensive lineman, A&M was the first to offer Collins. However, he is a Longhorn legacy. The Aggies need to continue to get him to campus.
-2020 Newton DE James Sylvester:Though he has offers from all over the country, Sylvester looks like he will be an A&M-TCU battle. He is very high on the Aggies but has three class of 2019 teammates headed to play for the Horned Frogs.
-2020 Fort Bend Austin WR Troy Omeire: A big and fast wide receiver, the national top-100 prospect will be an A&M-Texas battle. It is big that the Aggies are getting him on campus again.
-2020 Cibolo Steele CB Jaylon Jones:Once very close to committing to the Aggies, the four-star cornerback now has Texas up there as well. Like many of the other in-state battles, it is big to get him on campus again.
-2020 Lancaster CB Lorando Johnson:The four-star cornerback recently named A&M in his top three, along with Arkansas and LSU. The Crystal Ball is in favor of LSU but the Aggies are still most definitely in it.
-2020 Lancaster RB/ATH Kevontre Bradford: The 5-foot-11, 185-pound high school running back does not have an offer from A&M at the moment, but he is one to watch. He has added several big offers recently, including one from USC on Saturday.
-2020 Mansfield Timberview CB Jalen Kimber: The Aggies are very high on Kimber and vice versa. He has seen his offer list increase quite a bit but is considered an A&M lean.
-2020 Stafford DE/LB Robert Wooten:A high school defensive end at a somewhat smaller school, the 6-foot-3, 230-pound Wooten is being looked at as a linebacker by the Aggies but is also being evaluated as a pass-rushing end as well. A&M has only offered one in-state linebacker in the class so far, but Wooten is one to watch to possibly receive one. Jimbo Fisher went by his school on Friday.
-2020 Cy Creek LB Josh White(Oklahoma State commit): Like Wooten, White is another linebacker prospect that does not have an A&M offer at this point but could be very close to one. Though he is committed to Oklahoma State, the 6-foot-1, 205-pound defender was at LSU this past weekend and is still open to others. He was his district’s Defensive MVP as a junior.
-2021 Virginia Beach (Va.) Princess Anne CB Tony Grimes: The five-star prospect from Virginia will actually arrive in town on Monday and spend the whole week in College Station. He did the same thing for a week during the summer as well.
-2021 Fort Bend Willowridge WR Latrell Neville: Like with Washington, Neville was unable to make the trip with the Fast team last weekend. The big sophomore wideout once had A&M as the leader, so the Aggies can do their best to get back in that position again.
-2021 Mesquite Horn LB Kendrick Blackshire: Linebackers, especially inside ones, are at a huge premium. Blackshire is currently ranked as the country’s top inside linebacker for the 2021 class and will be in College Station for the event.
-2021 Denton Ryan DE Ja'tavion Sanders: The two-way standout was just offered by the Aggies last week and will be making his way to College Station on Sunday. Sanders has been as hot as any prospect in the country in picking up offers the past two weeks.
-2021 Katy Tompkins DE Tunmise Adeleye: The 6-foot-3, 260-pound sophomore could be in the discussion as the state’s top prospect in the class when all is said and done. A&M was his first offer. Adeleye will be in town no matter and could be riding with a pair of Aggie commits in Smart Chibuzo and Akinola Ogunbiyi.
