Texas A&M Finalist for 2027 4-Star LB Noah Glover

Aggies continue to prioritize defense in 2027 recruiting class

Published on Feb. 11, 2026

Texas A&M is one of six finalists for 2027 4-star linebacker Noah Glover out of Haymarket, Virginia. The Aggies have already landed several top defensive prospects in their 2027 class, including cornerback Raylaun Henry and safety JayQuan Snell. Head coach Mike Elko and his staff are focused on recruiting top talent at every defensive position group.

Why it matters

Texas A&M has made defense a priority in its 2027 recruiting class as the program looks to maintain its status as a College Football Playoff contender. Landing a top linebacker like Noah Glover would be a major boost to the Aggies' defensive unit.

The details

Glover, currently ranked as the 125th-best prospect and 8th-best linebacker in the 2027 class, has narrowed his list of schools to six finalists: Texas A&M, Georgia, Oregon, Notre Dame, Miami, and Virginia Tech. The Aggies were one of the first teams to offer Glover and have remained in the race, hoping to host him on a visit this spring or summer. New linebackers coach Travis Williams has already made an impact on the recruiting trail and will be a key figure in Glover's recruitment.

  • Texas A&M offered Glover a scholarship last year.
  • Glover named the Aggies as one of his six finalists this week.

What they’re saying

“Texas A&M was one of the earliest teams to offer Glover this time last year, and has continued to stay in the race, looking to host the standout defender this spring/summer, knowing that all five of the other programs in his final group will also be able to sell their development plan, while NIL opportunities will also play a role.”
