Breaking down Texas A&M’s 2018 recruiting class: The big gets, the dark horse and more

As National Signing Day continues to unfold, Texas A&M appears to be on its way to signing another top 20 class.

Head of the class: Leon O'Neal Jr., safety

Signing O'Neal was something A&M's old and current staff fought hard to make happen. In the end, O'Neal chose A&M over the four teams that made this year's College Football Playoff. O'Neal was a vocal leader for the Aggies during his first commitment, selling A&M hard for the school. His re-commitment two days before National Signing Day also helped produce a trickle-down effect, which led the Aggies to gain big wins on the recruiting trail on Wednesday.
