News Summary
Five-star prospect Lamar Brown has announced he will not visit LSU, signaling a potential commitment to Texas A&M ahead of his July 10 decision. The 6-foot-5 lineman from Louisiana, regarded as the top interior lineman nationally, recently completed an official visit to Texas A&M, boosting their chances. With LSU out of the picture, Texas A&M, Miami, and Texas now compete for his commitment, with analysts speculating he may already be leaning toward the Aggies.
College Station, Texas – Five-star prospect Lamar Brown has announced he will not be visiting LSU next weekend, indicating that the Tigers are likely out of contention for his commitment. The highly-rated recruit, who is set to announce his decision on July 10th, recently completed an official visit to Texas A&M, which has positioned itself as the frontrunner for his commitment.
Brown, a 6-foot-5, 292-pound lineman from Louisiana, is regarded as the top interior lineman in the 247Sports Composite rankings and holds the distinction of being the top player in his home state as well as the 15th overall in the nation. His recent official visit to Texas A&M was his most crucial before the impending commitment date, following two prior visits to the school earlier this spring.
With the cancellation of his visit to LSU, the contenders for Brown’s commitment now primarily include Texas A&M, Miami, and Texas. Texas A&M appears to be in a favorable position, bolstered by Brown’s previous interest and strong connections with the coaching staff, led by head coach Mike Elko.
Official Visits Summary
In addition to Texas A&M, Brown has also carried out official visits to the Miami Hurricanes and the Texas Longhorns this summer. These visits were part of his exploration into potential college destinations, but the subsequent cancellation of LSU indicates a narrowing of his choices. Brown was previously thought to be leaning towards LSU, but his recent visits and interactions suggest a shift in his recruitment.
Recruitment Landscape
The recruiting landscape for Brown is increasingly competitive. 247Sports analyst Gabe Brooks has noted that he is an exceptional two-way player, with the capability to impact both the offensive and defensive lines significantly. His physical talents and skill set make him a highly coveted recruit, and if he commits to Texas A&M, he would join three other defensive linemen already in their 2026 recruiting class: Jordan Carter, Samu Moala, and Jermaine Kinsler, all rated as four-star recruits.
Impending Decision
As Brown’s commitment date approaches, speculation about his decision has intensified. His social media activity following the visit to Texas A&M suggests he may be inclined towards making a commitment to the Aggies, as he hinted at “closing the book” on the recruiting process. This has led to discussions among recruiting analysts about whether Brown has already made his choice, particularly as he withdraws from LSU’s recruitment.
Conclusion and Future Impact
Lamar Brown’s commitment could significantly influence Texas A&M’s future performance in recruiting, enhancing their defensive line depth as they prepare for the upcoming seasons. His elite status as a player makes him an exciting prospect for any program, and his choice will undoubtedly be one to watch closely as recruiters and fans alike await the announcement on July 10th.
As the situation unfolds, the focus on Texas A&M’s commitment efforts remains strong, particularly given the state of their recruitment strategy under coach Elko and the potential addition of Brown to an already impressive class of defensive linemen.
