Texas A&M’s 2027 recruiting class is on the path to finishing as the No. 1-ranked cycle heading into the spring/summer, already securing an official visit for four-star quarterback commit Jayce Johnson, while the spring football schedule will serve as another opportunity to host several key prospects in the cycle, which could include five-star offensive lineman Mark Matthews.
Texas A&M offensive line coach Adam Cushing officially returned to the program after rumors of his connection to Michigan State were quickly dismissed. This was great news after two years of elite offensive line play, and recruiting has matched on-field success. After landing six O-linemen in the 2024 signing class, several of those players will contend for a starting or key rotational job next season.

So far, Texas A&M has landed commitments from four-star offensive tackles DeMarrion Johnson and Kaeden Scott, and according to Rivals insider Marcus Benjamin, Texas A&M, along with Notre Dame, Miami, Nebraska, Ohio State, Tennessee, and Georgia, are the names to watch, while the Aggies, along with Miami and Nebraska, are on the verge of earning an official visit.
“According to Matthews, Georgia, Miami, and Texas A&M are the schools with the highest possibility of getting an official visit from him. Matthews is still looking at a summer commitment just before his senior season.”
Entering his senior year at St. Thomas Aquinas, Mark Matthews possesses the physical tools and athleticism to become a future first-round NFL Draft selection, currently standing at 6’6″ and over 300 pounds. Right now, Matthews projects to become an elite pass protector due to his movement skills, and given his background as a basketball player, athleticism isn’t an issue.
According to Rivals, Matthews is currently positioned as the 2nd-ranked player nationally, and the No. 1-ranked offensive tackle and prospect in Florida.
