'Think this one close the book...' 2026 5-star DL leaves Texas A&M OV on a high note
This weekend, Texas A&M coach Mike Elko and his impressive coaching staff hosted 15 elite prospects in the 2026 recruiting class, headlined by the return of five-star OL/DL Lamar Brown, who recently took official visits to Miami and Texas before his final official visit to LSU on June 20.
After changing his commitment date to Thursday, July 10, Texas A&M defensive line coaches Tony Jerod-Eddie and Sean Spencer have been working diligently to develop strong communication with the Louisiana native, who took several unofficial visits to College Station during the spring period.

Despite the effort from LSU, Texas, and Miami, this weekend's official visit could seal the deal for Brown and the Aggies, according to one source.
Following his recruitment closer than most, Rivals recruiting insider Adam Gorney stated on X may have taken his "final step" towards committing to Texas A&M next month after Lamar Brown tweeted, "Think this one close the book..."
Landing one of the best athletes over the last decade would be monumental for a coaching staff that's entering just its second season in College Station, while Elko's ability to create deep connections with prospects in Louisiana and Georgia, where LSU and Georgia dominate in-state recruiting, is remarkable to say the least.

At the next level, he could play on either side of the trenches, but knows that he will thrive at defensive tackle, which the Aggies, and nearly every program, are recruiting him at, especially knowing that his NFL future depends on picking the right position.
According to 247Sports, Brown is currently positioned as the 7th-ranked prospect in the 2026 class, the No. 1-ranked IOL, and the No. 1-ranked prospect in Louisiana.
