Texas A&M’s 2026 season opener vs. Missouri State is just two weeks away, and third-year coach Mike Elko and his staff should be excited about the progress the 2026 roster has made, especially quarterback Marcel Reed, who is entering his second full starting season after throwing for a career-high 3,169 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions last fall.
While the season at hand is the focus, Elko will also utilize all seven home games in Kyle Field to host a long list of 2028 prospects, including five-star quarterback Donald Tabron II, who committed to the Aggies last weekend. On Thursday, it was confirmed by Rivals that one of the Aggies’ priority 2028 prospects, four-star safety James Foster III, has set his visit date with the Aggies.
Ranked as the No. 2 safety in the 2028 cycle, Foster has likely followed Texas A&M’s recruiting success at the position after Elko landed commitments from 2027 five-star safety Kamarui Dorsey and four-star JayQuan Snell, both considered immediate impact players with high NFL upside.
James Foster will reportedly make his way to College Station and attend Texas A&M vs. Kentucky on Saturday, Sept. 19, before visiting SMU, LSU, and Alabama over the next three weeks. This provides Elko and his staff the opportunity to make significant progress with the blue-chip defender, even though the Texas Longhorns are currently trending in the right direction.
According to Rivals, Foster is currently positioned as the 41st-ranked prospect, 3rd-ranked safety, and 3rd-ranked prospect in Texas.
