It is not even August, and the Texas A&M Aggies<\/a> are setting a historic pace for the 2027 recruiting class. It’s not just because they own the nation’s No. 1 class and have done so since before official visits began in June, but also because the Aggies are on pace to do something that the last three No. 1 classes haven’t.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If the Aggies were to sign their class as it currently stands, Texas A&M would sign the most five-star prospects<\/a> in a single class (six) since Alabama in 2023. That Crimson Tide class obviously followed the now-infamous Texas A&M 2022 class that featured nine five-star signees.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Now, we all know the reality in recruiting: it isn\u2019t likely that Texas A&M\u2019s final class on signing day will be the same as it is now. Yet, that could be just as much of a benefit to Texas A&M as it is a potential downside.<\/p>\n

With five months still to go before national signing day, there is still one five-star on the board that could join this already star-studded class.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Cornelius, North Carolina, native is the lone remaining five-star target that is uncommitted on Texas A&M\u2019s board. There is currently no decision date set for Dobson. As things stand right now, the Aggies are viewed as the favorite to land him.\u00a0<\/p>\n

ON3\u2019s recruiting prediction machine gives the Aggies an 86.3 percent chance at Dobson, while no other contender has higher than a single-digit shot. SEC foe South Carolina is currently second with 3.1 percent.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After missing out on Texas native and the nation\u2019s No. 2 prospect, John Meredith III, to Texas in June, the priority is Dobson.<\/p>\n

His commitment would tie the Aggies\u2019 class with that aforementioned Alabama class at seven five-stars. Yet, Texas A&M would argue for the more impressive class, as they would have done it in a different era.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Yes, both were signed with NIL, but Texas A&M did it in the revenue-sharing era of college athletics, that have tightened athletic department budgets and seen the talent further spread out. It likely isn\u2019t a coincidence that since the Texas A&M 2022 class and Alabama\u2019s 2023 class, no team has signed more than five five-stars in a single class.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A&M could surpass that with seven five-star recruits.<\/p>\n
