DALLAS -- Surprise, surprise.
While Texas A&M has yet to update its roster on 12thMan.com, the Aggies did release their 2024 media guide in conjunction with SEC Media Days. And, as a result, we have a full look at the roster and the numbers of new arrivals two weeks before we normally would have.
Mid-term arrivals
The Aggies had a good portion of their 2024 signing class, along with a few key transfers, arrive earlier this summer. Here's a look at what numbers they'll be wearing, along with their listed heights and weights:
CB Terry Bussey: #2; 6, 195
Transfer WR Jake Bostick: #11; 6-2, 183
QB Miles O'Neill: #19; 6-5, 220
Transfer LB Solomon DeShields: #22; 6-3, 235
WR Ernest Campbell: #23; 5-9, 145
DT Dealyn Evans: #31; 6-3, 285
OL Isendre "Papa" Ahfua: #53; 6-4, 295
Transfer C Koli Faaiu: #61; 6-3, 330
OL Robert Bourdon: #70; 6-6, 295
Transfer TE Shane Calhoun: #82; 6-4, 250
WR Ashton Bethel-Roman: #87; 6-1, 177
Transfer DE Josh Celiscar: #94; 6-4, 265
Transfer PK Jared Zirkel: #99; 6-3, 205
Number changes
Safety Marcus Ratcliffe has changed his number from 18 to 3; DE Cashius Howell has changed his number from 34 to 18.
But what about...
TE Eric Karner is taking a greyshirt season and will join the program in 2025. Karner and 2025 4-star Kiotti Armstrong will likely be A&M's new arrivals at that position for next year.
