Texas A&M is predicted to land rising 2026 3-star offensive tackle
Texas A&M hosted 10 prospects in the 2026 recruiting class this weekend, including rising three-star offensive tackle Aaron Thomas, who took his official visit with the Aggies ahead of his commitment announcement on Wednesday, June 25. Thomas will likely finish the year as a four-star recruit, and A&M is currently battling Ohio State and Florida State during the final stretch.
However, coach Mike Elko and O-line coach Adam Cushing are likely on the precipice of earning the program's 20th commitment in the 2026 class, as Thomas is now predicted to land with Texas A&M after his OV, which is his final visit of the summer. Predictions have been kind to the Aggies as of late after landing commitments from five-star cornerback Brandon Arrington and five-star edge Tristian Givens over the past three days.
Elko and his staff have built an elite foundation built on relationships, trust, and a plan for each player's future development at the next level. For Thomas, working under Cushing could do wonders for his career, as his 6-7, 300-pound frame, coupled with his fluid footwork, makes him a future starting tackle in the making.
If the Aggies land Thomas, he would join four-star offensive lineman Samuel Roseborough as the second O-line commit, and likely won't be the last, as three-star offensive tackle Avery Morcho, who took his official visit to Texas A&M on June 13.
According to 247Sports, Thomas is currently positioned as the 50th-ranked tackle and the 8th-ranked prospect in Arizona.

UNC basketball releases its full non-conference schedule for 2025-2026 season
Which matchups are you most excited for? As the UNC basketball team inches closer to the start of its 2025-2026 season, anticipation continues building in Chapel Hill. With the exception of Seth Trimble, James Brown and Zayden High, everyone is a newcomer to the Tar Heels' star-studded roster. North Carolina hit the transfer portal hard: bringing in 7-foot center Henri Veesaar, likely starting point guard Kyan Evans, hometown kid Jarin Stevenson, plus a pair of shooting guards in Jonathan Powell and Jaydon Young. Hubert Davis continued to showcase his recruiting prowess, with UNC's 2025 recruiting class including Top-10 recruit Caleb Wilson, plus a pair of combo guards in Derek Dixon and Isaiah Denis. The Tar Heels previously teased fans about their upcoming season, releasing a few non-conference matchups. North Carolina released the rest of their non-conference opponents on Friday, now allowing fans to prepare which nights they'll be in the Dean Dome, on the road, or on their couches. Outside of a road clash with Kentucky, a neutral-site battle with Ohio State, plus a pair of Fort Myers (Fla.) Tip-Off games against Michigan State and St. Bonaventure, you'll notice one eye-popping characteristic about UNC's non-conference schedule: every matchup is in the Dean Dome. The Tar Heels' first official home game will be Monday, November 3 against Central Arkansas, which became Division I in 2010. Four days later, North Carolina will host a highly-anticipated matchup against Kansas, which won in Allen Fieldhouse last year. Radford (Nov. 11), NC Central (Nov. 14) and Navy (Nov. 18) are all winnable games, then UNC faces a strong Atlantic 10 program in St. Bonaventure, followed by a Thanksgiving Day game against Tom Izzo's Spartans. Rupp Arena will be rocking on December 2, as will the Dean Dome on December 7 against Georgetown. USC-Upstate, ETSU and ECU are all teams the Tar Heels should beat handily, while Ohio State will provide a strong challenge.
