Over the last few days, Texas A&M has flipped a prospect from Houston, but the Aggies have also lost a pledge who changed his commitment to Oklahoma. Even with the birth of pre-negotiated NIL deals, there is still plenty of movement right up to the start of the early signing period.

With many on-field successes on the national stage, the Aggies have put themselves in unprecedented territory when it comes to cashing in on the recruiting trail. More importantly, Mike Elko & Co. appear primed to capitalize on their important opportunities.

During the last transfer portal cycle, Mike Elko, Derek Miller and the Aggies believed in their unique data, analytics and approach to roster building. The process has paid off as Texas A&M is now 9-0 and is currently poised to compete for the conference and national championships.

Texas A&M's second bye week meant there was no on-field action for the Maroon & White, but the Aggies were still plenty busy on the recruiting front. Over the weekend, A&M welcomed a 2027 addition and saw a 2026 pledge decommit.

Texas A&M’s rise is not about stacking five-stars, but about finding players who crave the grind and maximizing their development once they arrive in College Station. The blueprint behind Mike Elko’s recruiting strategy is beginning to show its real impact on Saturdays.

With the majority of the work on Texas A&M's 2026 signing class already finished, the focus has started to shift to what Mike Elko & Co. are doing in 2027. The Aggies already have four '27 commits, and there are a few other notable trends worth following.

The on-field momentum is rolling in Aggieland, and that success has translated to the recruiting trail as Texas A&M just concluded an important three-game home stand at Kyle Field. For Mike Elko and the Aggies, the steak is selling itself as the sizzle gets more intense.

After another victory during a successful, big-time recruiting weekend, Texas A&M will again see the level of importance rise as top prospects plan to make their way to Aggieland for an Oct. 11 showdown between the Aggies and Florida Gators at Kyle Field.

With 108,449 total inside Kyle Field on Saturday, approximately 100 recruits looked on as Texas A&M improved to 4-0 by beating Auburn, 16-10. It was the first of three straight recruiting weekends for Mike Elko & Co., and the Aggies took advantage.

Now ranked ninth in the nation, Texas A&M is set to host three consecutive SEC games at Kyle Field, and recruits are starting to flock to Aggieland for recruiting weekends. The upcoming matchup with Auburn could be the first of a number of big visitor lists for Mike Elko & Co.

Texas A&M's bye week is here, but there is no time to waste. There is momentum to be seized following the huge win in South Bend, and there is plenty of recruiting action as the Aggies hit the ground running with three consecutive SEC home games ahead. What a great time to be alive.

Texas A&M's receiving corps is clearly more explosive in 2025 than in recent history, and that improvement can be attributed to the versatile skill sets Mike Elko & Co. have added in recruiting. Here's a rundown of the high school wideouts the Ags have targeted under Elko's watch.

While Texas A&M's Week 1 opponent wasn't a marquee name, 107,571 fans still filled Kyle Field on Saturday night. Regardless of the matchup, the 12th Man's support always leaves an impressive mark on the recruits who make their way to College Station.

With the football season set to kick off on Saturday night, one final look at Mike Elko's 2025 Fightin' Texas Aggie football roster might be prudent. The goal here is to provide a numerical examination of where the players are coming from.

With high school football beginning around the country, Texas A&M currently has 27 commitments in the class of 2026. As Mike Elko & Co. put their finishing touches on this cycle, a major focus on the recruiting trail will be retention and reeling in big fish down the stretch.

NFL Draft results consistently prove that the Lone Star State produces high-caliber players, and over the past six years, over 200 Texas high school football players have been drafted. The goal for Mike Elko and Texas A&M is to sign those top-end talents in the state of Texas

The unknown has been ubiquitous in recruiting for basically its entire existence. But now, getting down to what's really happening in recruiting battles has become infinitely more difficult for coaches and recruiting staffers, and it comes down to negotiating power.

The Aggies currently sit with 27 commitments, where they hit on quality and addressed key needs in the 2026 class. Mike Elko’s staff has shown they are always on the hunt for intriguing prospects, and now, they will continue to evaluate, especially up front in the trenches.
