Texas A&M’s 2026 recruiting success this summer praised by Rivals

Texas A&M’s 2026 recruiting success this summer has only been matched by several programs, as the future is set at several positions, including running back, after landing four-star Jonathan Hatton and four-star KJ Edwards, who are both considered elite and future stars. Since June, 16 of the program’s 27 commits chose the Aggies, led by five-stars Brandon Arrington, Tristian Givens, and Bryce Perry-Wright.

Arrington, who will play cornerback at the next level, chose Texas A&M over Oregon in the final stretch of his recruitment. He is considered the best athlete in the class, while Givens and Perry-Wright are considered two of the top pass rushers, who, outside of NIL, felt Mike Elko and defensive line coaches Tony Jerod-Eddie and Sean Spencer’s development background on the defensive line, paired with the program’s history in the trenches, was too much to pass up.

On offense, Elko, OC Collin Klein, and WR coach Holmon Wiggins have locked down wide receivers Aaron Gregory, Madden Williams, and Mike Brown. At the same time, four-star Jace Mathews, who will announce his commitment on Friday, is another name to watch. Texas A&M’s tight end future also looks secured with four-star Caleb Tafua, while TE coach Christian Ellsworth beat out Notre Dame and Iowa State for Waukee, Iowa, native and four-star Evan Jacobson.

Last week, Rivals writer Adam Gorney ranked its ten “July recruiting winners,” including Texas A&M, which is no surprise given what we just discussed above. Texas A&M’s 2026 class is currently ranked 3rd nationally, and unless Elko and his staff pull off one or two more commitments or flips, this will likely be the final ranking by the time we reach Early Signing Day on December 4.
