2026 4-star DL places Texas A&M in his final 5 program list
One of the top defensive prospects in the 2026 recruiting class has narrowed down his options, as four-star edge rusher Jamarion Carlton released his top five program list, which includes LSU, Texas Tech, Baylor, Texas, and Texas A&M, which is good news for the Aggies down the final stretch of his recruitment.
After his official visit to LSU on May 30, Carlton will head to Texas on June 6, followed by visits to SMU and Texas A&M on June 12. Carlton has received five predictions for Texas and three for A&M (247Sports). The fact that Coach Elko and his staff will be the final stop on his official visit tour is a sign that the Aggies are the leaders in his decision before his commitment on July 10.
During Carlton's 2024 season, the versatile pass rusher recorded 57 tackles, five sacks, 11 tackles for loss, three pass breakups, and a forced fumble, which was not surprising for the Temple (TX) native, who is poised to see play time as soon as his first or second season at the next level.
According to 247Sports, Carlton is currently ranked as the 33rd-ranked prospect, third-ranked defensive lineman, and fourth-ranked prospect in Texas.
