Texas A&M competes for Texas State transfer pitcher Wade Cooper
Summary

Texas A&M is reportedly pursuing Texas State transfer pitcher Wade Cooper, who finished his freshman season with a 4.72 ERA over 66.2 innings with 73 strikeouts. The Aggies are looking to strengthen their pitching rotation following the dismissal of second-year pitching coach Jason Kelley and anticipate potential losses to the upcoming MLB Draft. Coach Michael Earley has already secured commitments from TCU transfer Jack Bell and former Western Kentucky infielder Lane Arroyos. The final decision on Cooper's recruitment may hinge on Texas A&M's choice for a new pitching coach, which is still pending.
