It’s no surprise that the excitement ahead of Texas A&M’s 2024 season is growing every week. The Aggies, under new head coach Mike Elko, will open the year hosting Notre Dame on Saturday, August 31, in front of what could be a sold-out Kyle Field.
With a clear advantage ahead of his first season, Elko and new offensive coordinator Collin Klein have inherited redshirt sophomore quarterback Conner Weigman, who returns to the lineup healthy with added muscle mass after missing the final eight games of the 2023 season.
However, for the offense to progress after a downseason, Weigman must be protected. New offensive line coach Adam Cushing has his work cut out for him but has plenty to work with from a size and depth perspective, starting with left tackle Trey Zuhn III.
Joining sophomore running back Rueben Owens, Zuhn sat down with TexAgs contributor Ali Russell to provide a brief statement regarding his excitement and confidence in what the Aggies can accomplish once the season begins:
“I think I’m just going to tell everyone the truth, that we’re a team that’s grinding and we’re going to be” Zuhn stated. “We are a powerhouse, and we have everything we need to be a great team and go all the way, and that we will.”
For any of this to come to fruition, Zuhn and the rest of the Aggie offense line will need to improve tenfold from the up-and-down play that put any consistent production on hold during Jimbo Fisher’s final year at the helm.
Trey Zuhn, alongside linebacker Taurean York and defensive tackle Shemar Turner, will join Mike Elko during Texas A&M’s Thursday time slot during SEC Media Days this week.
