Texas A&M loses five-star cornerback Joshua Dobson to South Carolina

Texas A&M's 2027 recruiting class suffered a blow when five-star cornerback Joshua Dobson committed to South Carolina on July 1, 2026. The Aggies, who were considered strong contenders for Dobson, faced tough competition from Michigan but ultimately could not overcome South Carolina's advantage in visits. Despite this setback, Texas A&M still has a top-ranked recruiting class featuring six five-star commits and ten four-stars. Coach Mike Elko's team remains well-positioned for future recruitment successes, including five-star cornerback Raylaun Henry.
