The Texas A&M Aggies already have the No. 1 recruiting class in the country, and one expert thinks it is only going to get better.<\/p>\n
Steve Wiltfong of Rivals<\/a> has logged a prediction for the Aggies to land five-star cornerback Joshua Dobson, a top 10 player in the 2027 recruiting class, and one of Texas A&M’s top remaining targets. The Aggies are competing with the LSU Tigers<\/a>, Michigan Wolverines<\/a>, Auburn Tigers<\/a>, and South Carolina Gamecocks for him. Wiltfong previously favored LSU, but has reportedly changed his mind after speaking with Dobson.<\/p>\n Dobson is from Cornelius, North Carolina, and has visited Texas A&M several times during his recruitment. They offered him a scholarship back in September of 2024 and are scheduled to host him on an official visit on June 5, giving them a great chance to lock in his commitment.<\/p>\n He is ranked as the No. 9 overall player and No. 3 cornerback in the Rivals industry ranking. He is also the No. 1 player from North Carolina.<\/p>\n Mike Elko and the rest of Texas A&M’s coaching staff have done an excellent job on the recruiting trail and have already landed commitments from 13 recruits, four of whom are ranked as five-star prospects. Dobson would give Texas A&M arguably the best defensive back class in the country, with five-star safety Kamarui Dorsey and five-star cornerback Raylan Henry already committed.<\/p>\n Need a news break?

They are also the favorites for five-star offensive tackle Mark Matthews, the top offensive tackle in the country.<\/p>\n Contact\/Follow us\u00a0@AggiesWire<\/a>\u00a0on X and like our page on\u00a0Facebook<\/a>\u00a0to follow ongoing coverage of\u00a0Texas A&M<\/a>\u00a0news, notes, and opinions.<\/p>\n
