Texas A&M Football Has a Unanimous Prediction To Land Three-Star Offensive Lineman Aaron Thomas originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
Nothing is definite in recruitment, but Texas A&M football is trending in the right direction to land a three-star offensive lineman. After four-star Camren Hamiel announced his commitment on June 4, the Aggies have been a leader in picking up this second Arizona native.

College Station was last spot that the class of 2026 recruit had left to visit in June. Now with his decision date coming up quickly, Wednesday, June 25 at 6 p.m. EST will determine whether the Aggies stayed fresh in his mind enough to take his talents to Texas A&M.
Aaron Thomas is the No. 439 overall recruit and No. 36 offensive tackle in the country from his class, according to 247Sports. He's also listed as the No. 5 recruit out of Arizona.

Head coach Mike Elko's biggest competition for Thomas is Ohio State. Both schools are ranked at the top of Thomas' four-team list. Behind the Aggies and Buckeyes are Florida State and Washington who have potential to land the recruit. In his announcement post on X, he also grouped Texas into the mix, though the Longhorns don't seem to have solid traction with the offensive tackle.
Crystal Ball® Predictions are suggesting that Texas A&M has a 100 percent chance to reel in the offensive lineman. Elko currently has four-star interior offensive lineman Samuel Roseborough committed, meaning Thomas would have more room to work with within the position. Ohio State and Washington both have two tackles on their class of 2026 roster.

Florida State, though, not only has a clean slate in the position like Texas A&M but also a family connection.
According to Texas A&M Aggies on SI, Thomas' father, Eric, played for the Seminole's offensive line. Even though Florida State isn't currently projected to be a top two team in the rising senior's mind, things can flip at any moment right down to the last second.

Lioness Jess Carter proud to help make women's sport more visible
In another life, Jess Carter could have spent this summer representing England on the rugby field instead of the football pitch. The England defender picked the round ball over the oval ball age 16 and has gone on to represent the Lionesses at two major tournaments. Advertisement But if women's rugby had enjoyed the stature it does today, she could have lined up for the Red Roses as they go for glory themselves on home soil this summer. 'I loved rugby, I still to this day say I was better at it than football,' said the 27-year-old, as part of a new LG OLED TV collaboration ahead of this summer. Former England goalkeeper and media pundit, Rachel Brown-Finnis, sat down with two of England's most loved sporting teams, the Lionesses and Red Roses to discuss the upcoming summer of sport (imagecomms) 'But it just got to a point where I had to choose between one or the other, and at that time, when I was playing, I think football was developing and progressing at a much quicker rate than what I felt rugby was. 'I think that was why I continued with that, but I used to love playing it. Advertisement 'It really helped from the team side of helping you to work together as a unit, all being on the same page, for sure. 'Being a defender, it is important that I win all of my individual battles, and that is the same on a rugby pitch. There is definitely a correlation between the two.' Carter was speaking ahead of a huge summer of sport, and LG is helping the nation get closer to the action with LG OLED TVs. Both the Lionesses and the Red Roses will be on free-to-air TV across the summer as they chase silverware. The Red Roses and the Lionesses joined forces to to reflect on some of the nation's most memorable sporting TV moments and the importance of visibility (imagecomms) And for Carter, visibility is key to make sure that the next generation knows what is possible for them. Advertisement She added: 'It is incredible, I would love to have been able to know that I could have been a female rugby player as a profession if I wanted to. 'But I felt like there wasn't really an option, it was just that I was playing women's rugby as a hobby. I didn't even know you could do rugby as a profession. 'Obviously now that is an option, and I think it is really amazing that the Red Roses are paving the way, similar to how we are, and they are now setting the standard. 'They are proving, like we are, that you can play anything you want to and compete at any level you want to.' Members of the two England women's teams caught up with LG at St George's Park recently as part of the leading TV manufacturer's ongoing partnership with The FA and the RFU. The LG All In Pledge encourages people to engage and watch women's sport. Together we can grow support through fandom and audience numbers to inspire new players to pick up the sport themselves, as watching changes everything. For more information, go to

INdulge: It's simply too hot. These ice creams were the best things I ate in Indy this week.
Well, folks, I hate to overreact, but I think it's time to call it a wrap on summer. Less than a week after the season officially began, Indianapolis has endured multiple heat advisories and watched the Pacers lose Game 7 of the NBA Finals in just about the most agonizing way possible. My disdain for summer is well-documented at this point, but so is my resolve to push through it with the help of empty calories. Needing a frosty assist more than ever, for this week's INdulge I toured our sun-beaten city for: In the time since the atmosphere started feeling like the steam that belches out of manhole covers, I've visited three Indianapolis ice cream shops in search of relief. Late last week, when the heat was just setting in and hope for a Pacers championship still sprang eternal, I began my quest with a cup of ube ice cream at Howdy Homemade downtown. Howdy, which shares space with Needler's Fresh Market at 320 N. New Jersey St., is one of six United States locations of the Texas-based mini-chain. Its silky-smooth take on the purple yam native to South Asia and Oceana is faintly fruity with a nutty taste strikingly similar to pistachio. I suspect a medical professional would advise against hydrating oneself by consuming frozen dairy instead of, say, water, but Howdy's ube ice cream is a remarkably refreshing and much better-tasting option. By the time I reached the second stop on my dairy drive, I was a different man. A broken one. Pacers star point guard Tyrese Haliburton had torn his Achilles tendon mere minutes into what seriously looked like a title-winning effort and I, a die-hard Pacers fan of roughly 40 days, was absolutely gutted. Prioritizing comfort above all else, a few days later I took a short trip up to SoBro, where longtime Indy ice cream vendor Lick recently opened a new shop just off the Monon Trail and 52nd Street. There, I snagged a scoop of blueberry and sweet corn ice cream. Lick's ode to summer produce is a pale purple blend speckled with blueberries and hunks of the shop's house-made corn cookies. The blueberry is pleasant if not especially strong, while the cookie chunks capture the butter-doused richness and unmistakable grit of a slab of cornbread. Perhaps I'm just another Hoosier in the pocket of Big Corn, but I find the mere idea of putting cornbread in ice cream frankly beautiful, and Lick's rendition was no exception. For one final affront to my arteries, I shot down Interstate 65 to Paradise Mx in Southport and purchased the closest thing to a pharmaceutical-grade mood booster I could find within the parlor's freezer case. That was Paradise Mx's Gansito, vanilla ice cream blended with chunks of the Mexican snack cake of the same name. For the uninitiated, Gansito (Spanish for 'little goose') is a small sponge cake topped with artificially flavored strawberry jelly and cream, all coated in a mixture approximating chocolate. Paradise Mx's twist on the packaged sweet is an all-out blitz on the dopamine receptors — an uber-dense, spoon-bending swirl with a degree of palatability typically found in the cellophane-wrapped creations of multinational food corporations. After all that, it's worth noting my ice cream escapades only briefly cooled me off. Ninety-five-degree humidity will have that effect. Nor did all that ice cream consumption much alleviate the pain that, for some cruel, unfeeling reason, tends to accompany sports fandom. Ultimately, I suppose only time (and another miraculous Finals run) can heal all wounds. I'm just saying, if you have a lot of time on your hands, there are worse things to fill it with than ice cream. What: Ube ice cream, $4, Blueberry and sweet corn ice cream, $5, and Gansito ice cream, $4.30 Where: Howdy Homemade, 370 N. New Jersey St., (317) 397-0008, Lick, (317) 979-0237, 1101 E. 52nd St., Paradise Mx, 7045 Emblem Drive, (317) 629-8450, In case that's not your thing: If you aren't looking for ice cream at one of these shops, you're in the wrong will return July 11. Have a wonderful Fourth of July.
