With the recent announcement of five-star cornerback Brandon Arrington moving his commitment date up to Thursday and the momentum that the Aggies have with another five star in Lamar Brown, Texas A&M has drawn a lot of eyes over the past few days. Recruiting fans across the country have taken notice of what the Aggies are doing in a big way.
It's not just Brown and Arrington, either. Ethan "Boobie" Feaster is high on the Aggies, and before reclassifying, he was a top-ten player in his class. Recently, four-star safety Tylan Wilson received a prediction to land with the Aggies, as did four-star offensive lineman Avery Morcho.

As if that weren't enough, either, this is all coming ahead of another absolutely massive recruiting weekend for the Aggies. Another pair of five star prospects in Tristian Givens and Bryce Perry-Wright will make their way to town this weekend, this time both along the defensive line as the Aggies close in on what could be a loaded class along the defensive front— the kind that Aggie fans are used to seeing.

If the Aggies land all of these top targets, they will be well on their way to a high-level finish in this class. Could that entail another number one overall class? Though the memories of that legendary cycle are now pretty tainted for Aggie fans, things are far different now in the Bright Complex, and such a result would give the Ags a lot more confidence going forward.
It's a long road to get there, though. The Aggies would have to wade through an extremely tough schedule and remain relatively unscathed in order to keep a lot of this top talent in the boat— they'd no doubt be assailed from all corners following any loss by programs wishing to flip a recruit or two.
Winning this fall is imperative. The impetus for that 2022 class was the 2021 win over Alabama, and the Aggies will need a similarly exciting moment— or a collection of them— if they are to ascend atop the recruiting rankings.
But summer momentum is never a bad thing, however big the grain of salt is with which you take it. If the Aggies can string together some of these commitments, it will put them on the radar of several more top-level players from around the country, which can lead to that momentum snowballing.
It's an exciting time to be an Aggie fan, in other words. Mike Elko is once more turning the Aggies into a recruiting power, and it's looking like they are here to stay.
