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.

Cincinnati Bengals Wideout Jermaine Burton 'Moved On' from Last Year's Benching
Cincinnati Bengals Wideout Jermaine Burton 'Moved On' from Last Year's Benching originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Cincinnati Bengals selected wideout Jermaine Burton in the third round last offseason to hopefully add a little depth behind Tee Higgins and Ja'Marr Chase. Advertisement But the former Crimson Tide receiver's rookie season was anything but productive. Burton posted just four catches on 14 targets for 107 yards and no touchdowns. Disappointing numbers for a third-round pick for sure. His lackluster season ended early after the team benched him for the final game of the year. He wasn't even invited on the plane to Pittsburgh. Burton says that benching woke him up. 'Nobody should be happy with it,' Burton said. 'I was very disappointed, but it's something that I moved on from, and grew from, and can't wait, looking forward, really looking forward to this year.' Burton had an opportunity to think about that benching for the entire offseason thus far, and is ready to be better. Advertisement 'Sleepless nights, honestly, just sitting there thinking,' Burton said. 'I could sit there and just think about football all night. And it's just something that I love, and something that I really enjoy doing. So I want to do the best that I can to be the better player I can be. I really wish I was there, but like I said, the situation I moved on from and I really can't wait for this year.' Now, the 23-year-old is ready to improve and help his team win. 'I'm just trying my best to be the best player I can be, just coming up with better habits, better routines, and just trying to stay consistent,' Burton said. 'I learned a lot of things last year, but you really got to be a professional in this league.'

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.
