Texas A&M's Week 2 home test vs. Arizona State will once again serve as another key recruiting opportunity for coach Mike Elko and his staff after hosting 150 prospects in the 2027, 2028, and 2029 cycles, while the Aggies are now the favorites to flip 2027 four-star athlete Za'Kari Johnson , who is currently committed to Florida State.

While the 2029 recruiting class is less of a focus, building early relationships is key, while solidifying relationships with all 25 of the Aggies' No. 1-ranked 2027 commits, with five of the program's six five-star commits visiting College Station last weekend, including five-star offensive tackle Mark Matthews.

Thanks to Rivals insider Sam Spiegelman for his reporting, all eyes will be on College Station this weekend, as Elko and GM Derek Miller will host four of the program's blue-chip 2027 commits, led by five-star Edge Zyron Forstall, five-star wide receiver Eric McFarland III, five-star linebacker Kaden Henderson, and rising four-star Edge Kaden McCarty.

In the 2028 cycle, Rivals insider Steve Wiltfong revealed a long list that could continue to grow heading into the weekend, headlined by three blue-chip Top100-ranked prospects: four-star wide receiver Tromon Issac, four-star offensive tackle Jamario Canton, and four-star linebacker Andre Alexander. This will be Canton's second visit in June, which, by all accounts, was highly successful.

You can view the other 2028 names here , while the Aggies will also host the No. 2-ranked quarterback in the 2029 cycle, four-star Linc Frazier out of Willis, Texas , who tops the list of 2029 visitors this weekend.
