2026 4-star RB and Texas A&M commit has shut down his recruitment
2026 4-star RB and Texas A&M commit has shut down his recruitment Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko was 100% on the mark this offseason when discussing Texas A&M's strong foundation under his leadership, which was proven this weekend during one of the biggest recruiting weekends of the summer, as the Aggies hosted 18 2026 prospects, including several commitments. Two of the top names in A&M's 2026 cycle include four-star wide receiver Aaron Gregory and four-star running back Jonathan Hatton, who both shut down their recruitment on Saturday afternoon during the third day of their official visits. Gregory, who has been heavily pursued by Texas and others this offseason, noted his strong relationship with the coaching staff and sees himself as a perfect fit in Texas A&M's offense. For Hatton, after re-affirming his commitment earlier in the day, the Cibolo (TX) native followed Gregory in taking to social media (X) to announce that he will shut down his recruitment and cancel is future official visits, which includes his OV to Oklahoma on June 20, as the future starting running back is "1,000% locked in with Texas A&M." On the field, Hatton is an elite runner with the vision, footwork, and upfield burst to become a star at the next level, having produced 1,229 yards and 20 touchdowns while averaging 9.17 yards per carry. With Le'Veon Moss leaving after the 2025 season, bringing Hatton into the backfield lineup will provide immediate depth in 2026. According to 247Sports Composite, Hatton is currently positioned as the 77th-ranked prospect in the 2026 class, the 5th-ranked running back, and the 10th-ranked prospect in Texas.

Ohio State Lands 'Huge Visit' With Coveted Star
Ohio State Lands 'Huge Visit' With Coveted Star originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Most weekends in June are big recruiting times for the top college football programs. This weekend is no different for the Ohio State Buckeyes. Advertisement On3's Steve Wiltfong reported Friday the Buckeyes have a "huge visit" with four-star offensive lineman Drew Evers. "On300 offensive lineman Drew Evers is a huge visit for the Buckeyes as the defending National Champs have had momentum. The Buckeyes sit at No. 3 in the On3 Industry Standings," wrote Wiltfong. Evers has received dozens of offers according to 247 Sports. In addition to the Buckeyes, the Texas A&M Aggies, Penn State Nittany Lions, Alabama Crimson Tide and Georgia Bulldogs, among many others, are pursuing the four-star offensive lineman. Ohio State Buckeyes head coach Ryan Day© Adam Cairns/Columbus Dispatch / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images Based on the 247 Sports composite rankings, Evers is the No. 13 offensive tackle and 27th-ranked Texas prospect in the 2026 recruiting class. Advertisement A Flower Mound, Texas native, Evers is also the No. 209 overall recruit in the class according to the 247 Sports rankings. Evers posted a picture Thursday on his X account about his official visit to the Buckeyes. Evers visited the SMU Mustangs and LSU in May. Next weekend, he is scheduled to see Penn State. Then to end June, Evers will be in College Station, Texas, to visit the Aggies. The Buckeyes would like to continue the recruiting momentum they have with a strong visit with Evers this weekend.

Texas A&M 2026 4-star WR commit has shut down his recruitment
Texas A&M 2026 4-star WR commit has shut down his recruitment This weekend was critical for Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko and his staff, who hosted 18 prospects from the 2026 recruiting class, including six commitments, led by four-star running back Jonathan Hatton and four-star wide receiver Aaron Gregory, who are both borderline five-star prospects with productive college careers ahead of them. Keeping track of commits has been more challenging in today's NIL-based college football landscape. Still, after the House v. NCAA settlement was officially approved on Friday evening, schools will work with an average of $20.5 million of their revenue to share with their collegiate athletes. For Texas A&M, football, basketball, and baseball will take the majority of the funds. For football prospects looking to play at the Power 4 level, NIL has created a relatively fair playing field. Once a recruit is set on their future destination, shutting down future visits is a definite sign of what we in the industry call a "hard" commitment. On Saturday, just hours after Jonathan Hatton confirmed his commitment, Aaron Gregory followed suit. Amid the smoke regarding the Texas Longhorns attempting to flip Gregory, the elite pass catcher has reportedly shut down his commitment, taking to X with an official post detailing his reasoning for sticking with the Aggies moving forward: "Why Texas A&M? Why not?" "I chose the right program that I see fits me and my playing style the best! Everyone thinks it's about money. I have a REAL RELATIONSHIP with all thte coaches. Coach (Mike) Elko, Trooper (Taylor), (Holmon) Wiggins, and the rest of the staff had a relationship with me for some time now!" "I AM COMMITTED TO TEXAS A&M. The community, fans and the team have welcomed me and my family with open arms. It's time to help build this 2026 class and become a LEGEND at Texas A&M." Posting a video on X to confirm his further commitment, Gregory's dedication to helping build the remainder of Texas A&M's 2026 recruiting class aligns with Mike Elko's recent comments regarding the strong foundation the program has established over the last year. According to 247Sports Composite, Gregory is the 66th-ranked prospect in the 2026 class, the 8th-ranked wide receiver, and the 7th-ranked prospect in Georgia.
