It’s been a busy week on the college football recruiting front for Oakland junior safety Craig Tutt.
After traveling to Texas and playing well in the Patriots’ 52-48 win over the defending 4A champs in Anna, Tutt picked up his ninth SEC offer in Texas A&M.
On Saturday, he plans to take an unofficial visit to Auburn when the Tigers play California, a program that offered him in January. It’s his only upcoming visit that’s planned.
“I’m just taking it how I take it, and keep playing my game like I know how to play,” said the 6-foot, 180-pound Tutt, on the plethora of power conference offers. “I’m trying to get better game by game by game. I’m trying not to let the offers get to my head.”
Tutt is ranked by 247Sports Composite as a four-star recruit, the No. 12 player in Tennessee and No. 32 safety nationally in the 2026 class.

He has SEC offers from Tennessee, Alabama, Ole Miss, Missouri, Vanderbilt, Kentucky and Mississippi State, to go along with the Aggies and Auburn. Other notable offers include Michigan, Florida State, Penn State and Indiana.
The Texas A&M offer came just two days after Oakland’s win in Texas, where he had 194 yards rushing and two TDs and made four tackles.
Oakland’s Craig Tutt (1) tackles Haywood’s Cam Miller (3) knocking the ball from his hands during the game at Oakland, on Friday, Sept. 6, 2024.
“A couple of days after coming back from Texas … it was good to come back home and get that offer,” Tutt said. “It means I played well.”
Tutt has nine tackles (one for loss) and a pass break-up this season while tallying 362 yards of offense and five touchdowns.
