2026 4-star CB out of Carrollton (GA) will visit Texas A&M this weekend

One of Texas A&M’s top 2026 cornerback targets will reportedly visit the Aggies this weekend

Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko received some good news on Sunday during the tail end of the Aggies’ bye week. It has been confirmed that 2026 4-star cornerback Dorian Barney, out of Carrolton, Georgia, has decommitted from Alabama.

While Barney’s commitment to the Tide only lasted six months, Elko and his staff have communicated with the junior defensive back throughout the summer, leading to Sunday’s big news.

The recent recruiting momentum in College Station has certainly caught his eye. According to Rivals’ recruiting insider Sam Spiegelman, Barney will head back to College Station this weekend and attend Texas A&M’s Week 12 home matchup vs. New Mexico on Saturday night.

For Barney, Elko’s development background at the cornerback position is too intriguing to pass up, knowing that Texas A&M’s secondary will only continue to improve year after year with Elko at the helm.

According to 247Sports, Barney is currently positioned as the 66th-ranked prospect in the 2026 cycle, the 9th-ranked cornerback prospect, and the 8th-ranked prospect in Georgia.
