SEC names Texas A&M baseball's local product Player of the Week
The Texas A&M baseball team is on an impressive six-game winning streak and has won back-to-back SEC series. There is a lot of work to be done if the Aggies want to make the postseason, and they will need everyone to be at their best.
Bryan-College Station product Blake Binderup has been struggling most of the season and was starting to split time. However, when Gavin Kash went down with an injury, Binderup was given the full opportunity, and after some tweaks to his swing he showed up big in the South Carolina series.
On Tuesday, the SEC named the redshirt sophomore as the SEC Player of the Week after a six-hit, eight RBI, two home-run weekend at home against South Carolina. Below is the excerpt from the release from the conference officials:
Texas A&M's Blake Binderup helped the Aggies extend their winning streak to a season-high six games with a team-high .538 average to go along with a stolen base, two doubles, two homers and 10 RBI. Binderup recorded a hit in all four games, including a pair of multi-hit performances in the Aggies' sweep of South Carolina. The first baseman also recorded an RBI in all four contests, including a career-high tying five in Friday's series opener. With the Maroon & White trailing 3-2 in the series opener, Binderup ripped his second grand slam of the season to give Texas A&M a 6-3 advantage. In the series finale, Binderup reached base safely in all six plate appearances and delivered a key two-out, two-run homer in the Aggies' historic comeback win.
Texas A&M will host Tarleton at Blue Bell Park on Tuesday, April 15, at 6:00 p.m. CT. The game will be streamed on SEC Network+.

Oklahoma target 4-Star WR Davian Groce recruiting profile
Oklahoma target 4-Star WR Davian Groce recruiting profile The Oklahoma Sooners hosted one of the most talented skill players in the 2026 recruiting class for an official visit over the weekend, four-star wide receiver Davian Groce. Groce hails from Frisco, Texas, and is a dynamic, do-it-all weapon on the offensive side of the ball. While being projected to wide receiver at the collegiate level, he has experience carrying the ball out of the backfield, showing off his ability to create big plays in a number of ways. Groce is fantastic in the open field. He has the agility and vision to make defenders miss. He does a great job changing speeds to keep defensive backs off balance in his route. Once he gets the ball, Groce can accelerate away from the defense. He can win in every level of the passing game, showing a natural feel for the screen game as well as running intermediate and deep routes. Though he lines up mostly on the outside, his skillset would allow Groce to be successful in the slot as well. Groce would also be an asset in the return game if the Oklahoma Sooners were able to earn his commitment. Groce currently has 22 Power Four offers, including SEC schools Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas A&M, Florida, Missouri, and Ole Miss.

LSU football predicted to land elite tackle after decommitment from SEC rival
LSU football predicted to land elite tackle after decommitment from SEC rival On3's Steve Wiltfong logged a prediction Sunday for LSU to land a commitment from four-star offensive lineman Emanuel Tucker. Tucker is slated to make his commitment on June 13. Tucker took a trip to Baton Rouge over the weekend and it seems that the head coach Brian Kelly's staff won him over. He was active on social media, reposting content from the LSU facilities. Last weekend, Tucker decommitted from Mississippi State and reopened his recruitment process. Ole Miss and the Tigers entered the race with heavy hands over the past few days. Both are considered the front-runners for Tucker's services. According to On3's Industry Rankings, Tucker is the No. 203 overall prospect in the 2026 cycle. He is No. 16 at offensive tackle and No. 9 out of Mississippi. The New Albany, MS native initially chose the Bulldogs but he's under an hour away from Oxford. Tucker would be a significant regional get for Kelly, who built the SEC's best class of the 2026 cycle. He would be the second Mississippi native, alongside five-star Tristen Keys and the third offensive lineman, in addition to Brysten Martinez and Jalen Chapman.
