It's tomorrow's news tonight, as we look ahead to where A&M's signing class should stack up nationally by position group.
1. Quarterback
The Aggies got one of the best in the nation in Brady Hart, who reclassified from 2026 to 2025, committed to A&M and signed with in the span of a week. He’s really young — 16 — but has a great frame and really good arm. Add in even later addition Eli Morcos and the Aggies probably have one of the top 25 quarterback classes out there. It’s hard to sign more than one in this day and age
2. Running back
.This is definitely a top 10 class with the addition of Tiger Riden and Jamarion Morrow. You’ve got two 4-star backs, one with some pop and one that is extremely elusive. They’re a great pairing because they have very different strengths — except they’re both fast.
3. Tight end
This one won’t show up on the “best of” lists because the national folks won’t mention Eric Karner — who greyshirted this year — along with Kiotti Armstrong. But Armstrong is one freshman I think could start, because he’s a freak athlete. Hopefully Donovan Green will fully recover, but Armstrong could be special.
4. Wide receiver
I like TK Norman a lot more than most, and Kelshaun Johnson is a burner. But this isn’t enough for what A&M needs. Hopefully they can pull the rabbit out of the hat and land Jerome Myles at some point, and then go seriously hunting the portal.
5. Offensive line
One of the best classes anyone’s going to have, period. Getting Lamont Rogers, Jonte Newman and Marcus Garcia at tackle gives them three guys who could be the future at the position. Nelson McGuire is a guy I think can be really good at guard, and Tyler Thomas and Josh Moses could fight for the center job in a year or two. If they could get one more tackle, who will remain nameless, it would be the top class in the country by a wide margin.
6. Defensive line
They need bulk on the inside and they got it in DJ Sanders and Chace Sims. Landon Rink can also be a tackle, but has the speed to play the hybrid role Mike Elko used so effectively with guys like DeMarvin Leal and Kingsley Keke. Marco Jones is listed as a linebacker, but he’s a Jack and could be a real quality pass rusher fast. But they didn’t really get any real defensive ends, and they’re going to need them. I like who they got, they just need more.
7. Linebacker
The Aggies won’t get the love due to numbers, but the combination of Noah Mikhail and Kelvion Riggins will work quite nicely, thank you. Mikhail is a high school Butkus Award finalist, so he’s clearly outstanding. Riggins is a guy I’ve liked for two-plus years and he will put a pop on you. They’re both really good fits for a group that is suddenly getting pretty deep and talented.
8. Safety/nickel
Again, not a lot in terms of numbers, but two guys that could really contribute fast. Rashad Johnson is one of the nation’s best safeties with both speed and size, and Deyjhon Pettaway could be a factor at nickel fast. He’s a lot like the incumbent nickel, Tyreek Chappell.
9. Cornerback
his is one of the best classes in the nation. Adonyss Currie is a guy who could compete to not only play, but push to start, right off the bat. Jamal Beal-Goines has elite speed and may be one of the most underrated players in America. Cobey Sellers is a great athlete with excellent corner size.
10. What are the portal priorities post-signing day?
It's pretty easy to see the top three: wide receiver, defensive end and defensive tackle. They may look for experienced players at certain positions (quarterback, corner, offensive tackle), but those three groups are an absolute must. I expect A&M will probably move quickly once the portal opens to try to address those positions.
