Noah Thomas is one part of Texas A&M’s top-three recruiting class
Texas A&M currently has the No. 3 recruiting class in the On3 Consensus Team Recruiting Ranking behind only SEC foes Alabama and Georgia.
The class is headlined by three five-star recruits: Powell (Tenn.) High five-star defensive lineman Walter Nolen, Beaumont (Texas) West Brook athlete Bryce Anderson and Cypress (Texas) Bridgeland quarterback Conner Weigman.
Nolen committed the Aggies last Saturday along with Missouri City (Texas) Fort Bend four-star wide receiver Chris Marshall, making one of the most impressive days on the recruiting trail by any team in recent memory.
“We knew coming into Saturday it was going to be a five-star weekend in College Station, with an elite crop of prospects coming to town for the game of the week against Auburn,” On3’s Jeremy Crabtree said. And nobody could have written a more perfect recruiting script for the Aggies.”
