Aggie owned and operated Personal Injury Attorneys serving victims injured anywhere in Texas​

Suffering an injury or losing a loved one in an accident is difficult enough without having to deal with insurance companies and possible litigation. You need someone who will serve as your advocate and allow you time to heal both physically and emotionally. This is why you need a dedicated personal injury plaintiff attorney from Branch & Dhillon, P.C.

Texas A&M now has the number one class in the Rivals.com rankings for 2026 after picking up their third 4-star commitment of Sunday from linebacker Samu Moala.

Moala, an outside linebacker from Lawndale (Calif.) Leuzinger, joins fellow 4-stars Jordan Carter and Aaron Gregory in committing to the Aggies the day after A&M dispatched LSU 38-23 before a crowd of nearly 109,000 at Kyle Field.

Moala held offers from the likes of Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, Notre Dame, Ohio State and Tennessee, but the Aggies won out after Saturday night's win.

The 6-foot-3, 200-plus pound linebacker is the first player at his position to join the recruiting class and the first from California. Of the now seven commits the Aggies have, five are on defense. A&M now has commitments from players from Texas, Georgia, North Carolina, Utah and California.

Analysis of A&M's newest commit

Moala is not a linebacker. There. I said it.

He's a frigging hypersonic missile launched into opponents' backfields.

Ok, maybe that's a little over the top, but this guy has tremendous speed and the ability to pursue and track down opposing backs. It doesn't take long to see why he has 25 offers on the table.

First, he has really good size. He's not 200 pounds now; he's closer to 220, which makes him a prototype for the outside linebacker position. But, if he keeps growing, he could be a JACK like Cashius Howell and Rylan Kennedy. In fact, that may be what A&M wants him for.

Not only can Moala run, he can hit. You see several instances where he absolutely drills the running back or receiver, but he's not always in it for the highlight reel hit. He'll wrap up and take his guy to the ground as well. With the annoyance that missed tackles have been this year, that holds more than a little appeal.

Moala is big, physical and can run sideline to slideline. He looks like a really good pickup and should either strengthen the depth at outside linebacker or JACK in a couple of years.
