20226 3-star ATH out of North Forney (TX) has announced his commitment date
20226 3-star ATH out of North Forney (TX) has announced his commitment date Texas A&M is currently a finalist for several high-profile 2026 prospects, including one of the more underrated athletes in the cycle. Legend Bey, a 2026 three-star athlete and North Forney's (TX) standout dual-threat quarterback, is choosing between Tennessee, West Virginia, Duke, Ohio State, and Texas A&M. On Monday, the standout athlete revealed his upcoming commitment date. Taking to social media (X), Bey revealed that he will announce his commitment on Saturday, June 28, and while all five finalists have a shot at landing him, Texas A&M coach Mike Elko and his staff were one of the first Power 4 programs to recognize his talent and elite versatility, slightly similiar to sophomore wide receiver Terrry Bussey, who also played quarterback during his prolific high school career. On paper, running back or wide receiver is his likely position at the next level, and for those unaware of his skillset, all you need to do is turn on the tape. During his 2024 junior season, Bey rushed for 1,912 yards and 41 touchdowns, while throwing for over 1,400 yards and 13 touchdowns to boot. Bey's official visit to Texas A&M will take place on June 20, just eight days before his commitment, so it's safe to say that the Aggies are on the fast track to landing his pledge. According to 247Sports, Legend Bey is positioned as the 21st-ranked Athlete and 49th-ranked prospect in Texas.
