Brown has a chiseled frame that will easily carry more weight after he enters the Nittany Lions' strength program. But even more impressive than his frame is his motor. Advertisement Brown is always ready to go and eager to plant opposing defenders in the turf. He's also remarkably consistent at these national events. Penn State has a future star on the way. SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS WITH PENN STATE FANS AT The future Ohio State Buckeye doesn't do many camps but you wouldn't know it after his performance at the Rivals Five-Star. He came very close to taking home MVP honors after some great reps during one-on-ones. Greer is highly-rated at No. 43 in the country but is still underrated. He's got a great basketball background as well. The Ohio native has future multi-year starter written all over him. Advertisement SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS WITH OHIO STATE FANS AT Osenda is a massive offensive tackle prospect out of Tennessee. Because he's so tall, he carries his weight very well and it doesn't look like he weighs 330 pounds. He came in with the biggest wingspan at the camp (7-foot) and had some dominant moments during the camp. His improvement has been steady and he's one to watch in the future. SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS WITH TENNESSEE FANS AT The crown jewel of the Cal recruiting class gave the program a massive boost when he committed there. Standing at 6-foot-6, 335-pounds he's a monster offensive lineman that is hard to miss. But he's pretty agile for that size and rarely got beat during camp. Cal got an absolute steal here and their future quarterbacks and running backs will be thankful. SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS WITH CAL FANS AT

Texas A&M Football Misses Out on Two Linemen Drew Evers and Aaron Thomas One Day After Major Success
Texas A&M Football Misses Out on Two Linemen Drew Evers and Aaron Thomas One Day After Major Success originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Texas A&M football picked up a pair of offensive tackles on Wednesday, June 25, four-star Zaden Krempin and three-star Avery Morcho. The No. 2 2026 recruitment class in the nation, though, couldn't hang on to its second potential lineman duo on June 26. Advertisement On Thursday, Ohio State and SMU got the edge over the Aggies Texas A&M football head coach Mike Elko.© Kirby Lee-Imagn Images Drew Evers, a four-star offensive tackle from Flower Mound, Tex., announced his verbal commitment to SMU. The class of 2026 student-athlete is No. 208 overall and listed as the No. 14 interior offensive lineman despite being recruited as a tackle. He's also ranked No. 27 out of Texas. "214 . . . I'm staying home. Let's work #PonyUp," he wrote, according to On3's Hayes Fawcett. Another offensive tackle, Aaron Thomas, also veered away from the Aggies and decided that Ohio State would be his NCAA home. Thomas is a three-star recruit from Phoenix, Ariz. and is ranked No. 439 overall. He's also the No. 36 overall tackle and No. 5 athlete from his state. Advertisement Greg Biggins wrote in his scouting report: "He's a fluid mover, a natural athlete and looks to have all the physical traits to play offensive tackle at the college level. He's a reactionary athlete with good feet and balance. He's still raw in some areas, plays high at times and doesn't always use his length but we like the natural aggressiveness and finishing ability he flashes." Thomas was originally favored unanimously to choose the Aggies, but the Buckeyes were always their biggest competition. At some point, Florida State was a top consideration as well given his father was an offensive lineman for the Seminoles. The two recruits opting to take their talents elsewhere isn't heartbreaking for Texas A&M, though. After landing Krempin and Morcho, Elko's in a decent spot going further as recruits roll out their commitments.

Texas A&M lands 2026 4-star OT out of Clearwater (FL)
Texas A&M's success recruiting elite offensive linemen has been mightily impressive under head coach Mike Elko and O-line coach Adam Cushing, who recently signed six offensive linemen in the 2025 recruiting cycle, and they aren't slowing down, as 2026 four-star offensive tackle Samuel Roseborough committed to the Aggies on Monday night. Florida had been a recruiting pipeline for former Texas A&M head coach Jimbo Fisher and has been re-established under Elko after beating out Florida State and the Texas Longhorns for the standout blocker, who has played both ways during his last two seasons as a defensive lineman. Advertisement Playing primarily as right tackle during his 2024 junior season, Roseborough has continued to improve as a pass protector and has been a difference-maker in the run game. Again, beating out Florida State for a player from Clearwater (FL) while out-recruiting Texas, who has also dominated in O-line recruiting under coach Steve Sarkisian, is highly notable. Standing at 6-4 and 185 pounds, Roseborough will likely shift inside at either right or left guard at the next level, and due to his elite run-blocking skillset, this should be a seamless transition. Roseborough is the first offensive line commit in Texas A&M's 2026 class, and likely won't be the last. According to 247Sports Composite, Roseborough is currently positioned as the 142nd-ranked prospect in the 2026 class, the 8th-ranked interior offensive lineman, and the 17th-ranked prospect in Florida.
