Texas A&M’s football program has secured a significant commitment from four-star cornerback Cobey Sellers, who chose the Aggies over other top programs, including Oklahoma, LSU, Georgia, Oregon, and Texas. citeturn0search2 Sellers, a standout at Shadow Creek High School in Pearland, Texas, is ranked as the nation’s No. 20 cornerback and No. 165 prospect overall, according to the On3 Industry Ranking.

 

Standing at 6 feet and weighing 170 pounds, Sellers is known for his agility, speed, and keen football instincts. His commitment brings Texas A&M’s 2025 recruiting class to 11 members, pushing the Aggies closer to a top-10 national ranking. Sellers cited the coaching staff’s defensive expertise as a pivotal factor in his decision, stating, “I feel like it was right for me because Coach [Jordan] Peterson, Coach [Mike] Elko, and Coach [Jay] Bateman all come from DB backgrounds and I feel they’re the best developers in the game right now.” citeturn0search2

 

Sellers’ commitment reflects Texas A&M’s ongoing efforts to strengthen its defensive lineup. The Aggies have recently secured commitments from other highly regarded defensive backs, including Bravion Rogers and Jordan Pride. Rogers, a four-star defensive back from La Grange High School in Texas, committed to Texas A&M over offers from Alabama, Texas, Michigan, and Georgia. He is ranked as the No. 49 player and No. 6 cornerback nationally. citeturn0search0 Pride, a four-star defensive back from Blountstown High School in Florida, chose the Aggies after decommitting from Florida State, citing his positive experience during a visit to College Station. citeturn0search1

 

The addition of Sellers not only bolsters the Aggies’ secondary but also underscores the program’s appeal to top-tier talent. Sellers emphasized the importance of proximity to his family in his decision, noting, “It’s an hour and 45 minutes from my house. My family is able to come to every game without having to travel very far. That’s a big thing for me. I want them at every game.” citeturn0search2

 

Sellers also plans to actively participate in recruiting efforts, aiming to bring in other top talents to join him at Texas A&M. He mentioned, “I’m still recruiting two of my friends Max Granville and Jonah Williams, two of my closest friends. I feel if we can get them on board, we will be an unstoppable team.” citeturn0search2

 

Texas A&M’s strategic focus on recruiting elite defensive backs like Sellers, Rogers, and Pride positions the program for future success. The coaching staff’s defensive acumen and the program’s supportive environment continue to attract top talent, enhancing the Aggies’ competitiveness in the SEC and nationally.
