COLLEGE STATION ? The Texas A&M football team landed a consensus top five signing class by inking 22 standouts to National Letters of Intent on Wednesday.
Coming on the heels of a third straight bowl win, the Aggies' 2014 signing class was rated No. 4 by ESPN.com, No. 5 by Scout.com and 247Sports.com and No. 6 by Rivals.com, as of mid-afternoon on Wednesday.
Seven of the signees enrolled at Texas A&M in January and will go through spring drills with the Aggies: QB Kyle Allen, OL Jermaine Eluemunor, OL Avery Gennesy, OL JJ Gustafson, DT Zaycoven Henderson, WR Speedy Noil and WR Josh Reynolds.
Among the 22 signees were 10 players that were ranked among the ESPN 300 and 16 were ranked four- or five-star recruits by ESPN. Rivals rated 13 of A&M's signees as four- or five-star recruits. In Scout's rankings, the Aggies inked five top 100 players and 16 four- or five-star recruits.
