With a No. 2 ranking in the SEC’s recruiting class and recent commitments from top prospects, the program is positioning itself for future success.

College Station, Texas – The Texas A&M football program is experiencing a remarkable surge in recruiting, highlighted by recent commitments and standout performances at the Texas State 7-on-7 tournament. The event, held amidst adverse weather conditions, attracted numerous top football prospects, contributing to A&M’s strong recruiting momentum.

A&M currently ranks No. 2 in the Southeastern Conference’s recruiting standings, boasting an impressive 92.650 average player rating. This recent activity has energized fans and analysts alike, showcasing the program’s commitment to building a formidable team for the future.

Among the notable prospects participating in the tournament were five-star athlete Jermaine Bishop, Top247 athlete Jalen Lott, and Top247 linebacker Cooper Witten. Their performances have continued to spark interest in A&M’s recruiting class, which now includes 21 commitments for 2026, 18 of which are designated as blue-chip prospects.

Adding to their arsenal, four-star edge rusher Samu Moala from Lawndale, California, recently declared his commitment to Texas A&M, choosing to shut down his recruitment following his verbal agreement on October 27, 2024. Ranked as the No. 10 EDGE nationwide by Rivals, Moala stands at 6 feet 4 inches and weighs 225 pounds. He is recognized for his intense playstyle and versatility on the field, making him a valuable addition to A&M’s defensive line.

In his sophomore season during 2023, Moala recorded impressive statistics, including 49 tackles (four for a loss), six quarterback hurries, two pass breakups, and a forced fumble. His production improved in 2024, with 52 tackles, three sacks, and nine hurries. He also showcased his skills on offense, totaling five receptions for 86 yards and one touchdown.

Moala joins a strong group of fellow four-star edge rushers, including Trisian Givens and Jordan Carter, further bolstering A&M’s defensive options. Givens and Carter are ranked No. 14 and No. 31 in Georgia, respectively, highlighting the regional talent A&M is attracting.

Another recent commitment comes from three-star offensive lineman Avery Morcho from Missouri City, who selected Texas A&M over offers from schools like SMU, TCU, and Florida State. Morcho is ranked 40th among offensive tackle prospects and 489th overall nationally. His physical profile includes 6 feet 6 inches in height and 295 pounds in weight, showcasing the size and athleticism required to compete in the SEC.

Morcho marks the 19th commitment for the Aggies’ 2026 class and is the second offensive lineman to join, following the commitment of Samuel Roseborough. His decision is part of a productive June for Texas A&M, which has seen a total of eight commitments this month alone.

As of now, the 2026 recruiting class for Texas A&M stands proudly at No. 2 in the country according to the 247Sports composite rankings. This solid foundation, comprising top-ranked prospects like Moala and Morcho, underscores the program’s dedication to success and its focus on building a competitive team that can excel in the demanding football landscape of the SEC. With the ongoing recruitment activities and recent performances at the state tournament, A&M’s future looks increasingly promising.
