Whoever is pulling the strings behind Texas A&M’s early recruiting efforts on the offensive side of the ball, be it offensive coordinator Noel Mazzone or the rest of the staff, the coaches have done a great job landing targets early. Another top recruit was added to the 2017 class on Monday when Oklahoma offensive tackle Adrian Wolford committed to the Aggies.

Meeker High School posted a 9-3 record in 2015 making a second round run into the Oklahoma High School 2A Playoffs. The 6-5, 310 pound, talent was key along the offensive line helping open up running lanes for 2016 running back Jake Standlee and his 2,368 yards and 24 touchdowns gained on the ground.

Wolford committed to Oklahoma State on Feb. 22. On April 18, the three-star rated talent received an offer from Texas A&M visiting College Station on May 13. Other reported offers coming in for Wolford included Colorado State and Tulsa. On May 23, Wolford decommitted from OSU committing to Texas A&M posting his announcement on Twitter:

Aggies’ offensive line coach Jim Turner now has three linemen committed in Carson Green, Grayson Reed, and Wolford. A&M now has eight verbal commitments overall.
