On Sunday afternoon, 2024 3-Star offensive lineman Ashton Funk pledged his commitment to Texas A&M, as the Aggies add their second commit to the class as Funk joins 4-Star defensive lineman Dealyn Evans. Fun fact, Ashton is an Aggie legacy as both of his parents are Texas A&M graduates.
Ashton Funk is listed as 6’7″, 285 pounds, and is in the midst of his junior season at Tompkins High School in Katy, Texas. As one of the top targets for the Aggies in the 2024 recruiting cycle, Funk has also received offers from the likes of Alabama, Auburn, LSU, and Michigan, but after his unofficial visit to College Station during the annual recruiting pool party on July 30th, Funk has officially found his new home after graduation.

As a versatile offensive lineman, Funk plays primarily at tackle but has the size, strength, and footwork to play both guard positions as well. For Texas A&M, this is a huge pick-up to add to their already elite 2023 O-line class, meaning that the future in the trenches is as bright as it’s been in a number of years. Congratulations! Gig ’em, Ashton!
