Texas A&M sophomore wide receiver plant to enter the transfer portal

Sophomore wide receiver Micah Tease will enter his name into the transfer portal after two seasons

Texas A&M’s 2024 season ended at a disappointing 8-4 and 5-3 in SEC play after losing three out of their last four games, including the season finale 17-7 loss to rival Texas in the revival of the Lone Star Showdown.

On Wednesday, the Aggies signed 24 players in the 2025 recruiting class, including flipping two former Missouri commits, five-star offensive tackle Lamont Rogers, and four-star running back Jamorian Morrow, while five-star wide receiver Jerome Myles surprisingly signed, squashing previous reports.

However, 11 players have entered the transfer portal, including sophomore wide receiver Micah Tease, who has failed to see the field despite his four-star recruiting prowess and productive high school career in Oklahoma.

Whenever a highly ranked recruit enters a program, fit and how the coaching staff sees his skillset adapting to the play calling are everything. For Tease, playing behind Ainias Smith and the combination of Cyrus Allen and Jabre Barber during the 2023 and 2024 seasons resulted in just nine appearances and two receptions for 19 yards.

Micah Tease has three years of eligibility remaining. He is the second Texas A&M wide receiver to enter the transfer portal this month, joining Cyrus Allen.

Texas A&M WR Micah Tease continues to impress during the end of the fall camp

Could Micah Tease become a key contributor in the passing game this season?

Texas A&M’s fall practice period is coming to an end, as head coach Mike Elko and his staff are currently hosting the team’s 14th practice on Saturday afternoon, as the season opener vs. Notre Dame is exactly two weeks away with plenty of hype.

While progress has been made this month, several players on offense and defense have consistently stood out, including starting quarterback Conner Weigman, junior defensive end Shemar Stewart, and most surprisingly, sophomore wide receiver Micah Tease, who only recorded 19 yards on two receptions during his 2023 freshman season.

With new OC Collin Klein now running the offense, the departure of speedy WR Evan Stewart, who transferred to Oregon this offseason, has left many of us wondering which receiver on the roster can match Stewart’s top-end speed to put pressure on the secondary.

So far this month, Tease has been paired with former Louisiana Tech WR Cyrus Allen, who has stood out as a potential solution to the issue. He has already made several big-time receptions, run fluid routes, and consistently shown off the deep speed that made him a Top 150-ranked recruit in the 2023 cycle, receiving offers from numerous blue-blood programs.

On paper, junior wide receivers Noah Thomas and Jhade Walker have likely secured starting spots, while fellow junior wideout Moose Muhammad III is battling with Cyrus Allen and Tease to fill out the rest of the rotation.

Watch a recap from Texas A&M’s final week of fall football practice

Texas A&M’s final week of fall practice is coming to a close, so here’s a quick video recap!

In just two weeks from now, Texas A&M and head coach Mike Elko will be preparing to kick off the 2024 season against Notre Dame on Saturday, August 31, as the 7th-ranked Fighting Irish will make their way to what could be a sold-out Kyle Field.

This week, the Aggies took the field for the final time before preparing for the 2024 season as the fall practice period can’t be called a success just yet, but progress has certainly been made on both sides of the ball.

Defensively, the biggest riser has consistently been junior defensive end Shemar Stewart, who, after gaining significant weight this offseason, is still looking lean and mean at 290 pounds, while his elite strength and athleticism make him a player to watch. Teaming up with former Purdue DE Nic Scourton and senior DL Shemar Turner, A&M’s pass rush looks borderline elite.

Offensively, redshirt sophomore quarterback Conner Weigman has improved as a passer, increasing the velocity on these throws, while his accuracy and touch remain top-notch.

Concerning who he will be throwing to, Texas A&M’s wide receiver rotation is skilled but relatively unproven. At the same time, several new tight end additions, including former Fresno State TE Tre Watson, whose blocking and receiving skills make him a perfect fit in new OC Collin Klien’s offensive scheme.

As the roster continues to take shape, here’s a quick recap video from this week’s practice. The video also shows sophomore wide receiver Micah Tease making a couple of big-time receptions this week.

Here are the Top 5 Texas A&M offensive players that need to show out this spring

Ahead of spring football, here are five Texas A&M offensive players who need to improve, starting next month.

It may be early in the offseason, but Texas A&M’s spring football season is less than a month away, and all eyes will be on how new head coach Mike Elko and his impressive coaching staff will help the offense, especially quarterback Conner Weigman, take the next step in their development.

After adding 22 veteran players from the transfer portal, the Aggies’ roster looks better by the day. Still, until the newcomers prove themselves on the field, the returning players from last season will define the 2024 campaign.

Focusing on the offense, Weigman’s return from the lower body injury that resulted in him missing the Aggies’ final nine games will take center stage as soon as spring practices begin, but due to consistent poor play on the offensive line, how new O-line coach Adam Cushing will fix said issues will be telling, and likely result in the offense’s success, or failure starting in September.

Here are the top 5 Texas A&M players on offense who need to show up and show out this spring, heading into the 2024 season.

Texas A&M underclassmen trio returning for 2024 football season

According to Texas Aggies United, freshmen, WR Micah Tease and DL DJ Hicks, and sophomore OL Dametrious Crownover are returning for next year.

A trio of Texas A&M underclassmen will be back for the 2024 football season to officially kick off the Mike Elko era in College Station.

According to Texas Aggies United, freshmen, wide receiver Micah Tease & defensive lineman DJ Hicks, and sophomore offensive lineman Dametrious Crownover are returning for the next campaign. Crownover is an incoming junior while Tease and Hicks will be sophomores.

It was originally reported on Jan. 3 that Hicks would be forgoing the transfer portal and remain in Aggieland. Hicks will work directly with Sean Spencer, who was hired from Florida to coach the defensive line. The 6-foot-5, 290-pound native of Katy, Texas graduated from Paetow High School last year.

He committed to Texas A&M as a 5-star recruit who was ranked amongst the top 15 players in the country. According to 247Sports, Hicks was the No. 1 player from the Lone Star State in the Class of 2023. He was selected to play in the Under Armour All-America game and Polynesian Bowl.

Hicks played in 11 games for the Aggies this season, tallying 13 tackles (6 solo), 2 tackles for a loss of yards and 1 sack. He racked up 2 tackles during the Texas Bowl on Dec. 27 against No. 20 Oklahoma State.

Tease had a rocky first season in College Station as he was arrested in September. Crownover’s older brother, Earnest, declared for the 2024 NFL Draft on Dec. 28 and was a finalist for the Lowman Trophy.

Final injury report ahead of Texas A&M vs. UL Monroe

Here is the final injury report ahead of Texas A&M’s home matchup vs. UL Monroe on Saturday afternoon.

Texas A&M (1-1) is fresh off their disappointing 48-33 road loss to the highly underrated Miami Hurricanes, who, by all means, bullied the Aggies into submission in one of the more lopsided second-half performances witnessed in the first few weeks of the 2023 season.

Ahead of the Aggies’ Week 3 home matchup vs. the visiting UL Monroe Warhawks, head coach Jimbo Fisher spoke to the media on Monday to reflect on the loss as the team resets and refocuses with ten games remaining in the regular season.

Albeit not providing any new updates regarding the injury report, the two players that are deemed to return to the lineup after missing the last two games include starting right tackle Reuben Fatheree II after recovering from his knee injury and freshman wide receiver Micah Tease—fresh off a full week of practice to get back in game shape.

Assuming Fatheree does return to the starting lineup, his size, strength, and experience on the right side of the line will only make starting quarterback Conner Weigman’s job easier after the sophomore signal caller endured blitz attempts on 33 of his 57 dropbacks against Miami.

Something to keep an eye on: Starting defensive end Shemar Turner’s recent arrest for reckless driving was unsurprisingly not mentioned by Fisher, so based on the lack of public acknowledgment, I personally expect Turner, who leads the Aggies in sacks so far this season, to start against UL Monroe.

Initial Injury report ahead of Texas A&M vs. UL Monroe

Here is the initial injury report ahead of Texas A&M’s Week 3 home matchup vs. UL Monroe on Saturday afternoon.

Texas A&M (1-1) is fresh off their disappointing 48-33 road loss to the highly underrated Miami Hurricanes, who, by all means, bullied the Aggies into submission in one of the more lopsided second-half performances witnessed in the first few weeks of the 2023 season.

Texas A&M’s porous secondary and blatant lack of pass rush pressure allowed Miami quarterback Tyler Van Dyke to pass for 374 yards and five touchdowns, leaving many of us to question Aggie’s defensive coordinator D.J. Durkin’s future with the program and just how susceptible the Aggie D will continue to be before the start of SEC play.

On Monday, Head Coach Jimbo Fisher once again sat down with the media to reflect on the loss and look toward what is hopefully a “get right” game vs. the visiting UL Monroe Warhawks on Saturday, without going into great detail regarding several players recovering from injuries, most notably starting right tackle Reuben Fatheree II.

While Fatheree has the potential to return as soon as this weekend, starting defensive end Shemar Turner’s recent arrest for reckless driving has created another headache within the program, and as expected, Fisher avoided the topic altogether. Personally, I expect Turner, who leads the Aggies in sacks so far this season, to play on Saturday.

Before the Miami game, freshman wide receiver Micah Tease, who warmed up with the rest of the offense before kickoff, was held out due to lack of practice after his suspension during the season opener vs. New Mexico, stemming from his marijuana-related arrest. He is also expected to play against UL Monroe.

Texas A&M will return to Kyle Field to take on Louisiana Monroe on Saturday, Sept. 16, as the game will air on the SEC Network at 3:00 p.m. CT.

WATCH: Texas A&M WR Micah Tease seen warming up before the Aggies take on Miami

Recently suspended Aggies wide receiver Micah Tease was seen warming up before Texas A&M takes on Miami on Saturday afternoon.

Just half an hour before Texas A&M faces the Miami Hurricanes inside Hard Rock Stadium; it was revealed that freshman wide receiver Micah Tease, who has been suspended indefinitely after his arrest late last week before the Aggies opened the 2023 season vs. New Mexico, was seen warming up on the sideline earlier this afternoon in a video from The Eagle reporter Travis Brown.

On Friday, September 1, Tease was officially charged with possession of four to 400 grams of a controlled substance (edibles), a second-degree felony charge, which could result in a 20-year prison sentence and a $10,000 fine. Tease was also charged with possession of marijuana, which is a more lenient Class B misdemeanor charge.

Head Coach Jimbo Fisher’s track record regarding player suspension regarding similar charges showed a pattern of one to two-game suspensions. After obviously missing the season opener, Tease looks ready to roll and finally contribute in the receiving core and on special teams.

Tease committed to Texas A&M back in late December, coming in as a four-star prospect in the 2023 class, positioned as the 5th-ranked Athlete and the 3rd-ranked player in Oklahoma, according to 247Sports composite.

Texas A&M WR Micah Tease reportedly arrested on felony drug related charge

It has been reported that Texas A&M freshman wide receiver Micah Tease was arrested on felony drug charges on Friday evening

It has been reported that Texas A&M freshman wide receiver Micah Tease was arrested on drug-related charges on Friday, Sept. 1, which includes a second-degree felony charge.

Tease was officially charged with possession of four to 400 grams of a controlled substance (edibles), a second-degree felony charge, which could result in a 20-year prison sentence and a $10,000 fine. Tease was also charged with possession of marijuana, which is a more lenient Class B misdemeanor charge.

According to a Texas A&M Athletic Department spokesperson, Tease has been suspended indefinitely and will likely miss the Aggie’s season opener against New Mexico on Saturday night. Posting a $13,000 bond, Tease was released just hours after his arrest on Friday night.

As The Eagle reporter Travis Brown importantly noted, Texas A&M University Police, who arrested Micah Tease, recently stated that they would cease arrests related to minor marijuana possession charges in the realm of two ounces or less; however, the felony controlled substance charge was completely separate.

Tease committed to Texas A&M back in late December, coming in as a four-star prospect in the 2023 class, positioned as the 5th-ranked Athlete and the 3rd-ranked player in Oklahoma, according to 247Sports composite.

Evan Stewart and Micah Tease headline Texas A&M’s wide receiver depth in Maroon and White game

Evan Stewart’s over-the-shoulder catch and Micah Tease’s 52-yard touchdown grab spotlight a promising Aggies receiver corps following Saturday’s Maroon and White game.

Team White may have fended off Team Maroon in a 33-19 win during Texas A&M‘s 2023 spring game, but everyone should walk away optimistic after seeing the receiving corps on display at Kyle Field on Saturday.

Evan Stewart (7 receptions, 97 yards, 1 lost fumble) and Micah Tease (3 receptions, 72 yards, 1 receiving touchdown) were by far the top performers of the day with each putting up respective highlight-worthy catches in the opening quarter. Stewart received a nice over-the-shoulder pass from quarterback Conner Weigman, while Tease had a catch of 52 yards from Max Johnson that put the White Team in the end zone first.

Ainias Smith (4 receptions, 67 yards, 1 touchdown) had a long reception in the closing minutes of the fourth quarter, which illustrates how an already talented receiving corps can only become more potent with the redshirt senior’s return. Raymond Cottrell (2 receptions, 22 yards) looked solid in the offensive scheme while Noah Thomas, unfortunately, saw his day cut short after leaving from a scary hit in the opening minutes.

The spring game is still an exhibition, so you never want to see those types of injuries at this time of year. It’s also key to note that Moose Muhammad III did not dress for Saturday’s game after managing to practice in just a limited capacity on Wednesday.

You can bet that Jimbo Fisher and Bobby Petrino have more than a few cards up their sleeves when it comes to the playbook, but it was still promising to see the offense line up in various formations that featured a handful of wideouts in motion.

This offense ranked just 101st in the country in scoring last season (22.8 PPG), so witnessing an injection of creativity will always be a welcome sight, even during spring ball.

Petrino has a track record of tailoring his offenses to his best players and with Stewart flashing his upside on Saturday, you can be sure that this offense will open up space for him to do damage against the second and third levels of the defense.

Seeing this receiving corps in action on Saturday should have Aggies fans eager for the 2023 campaign, but it doesn’t mean Fisher and this staff should stand pat during the transfer portal window that re-opened, coincidentally, on Saturday. With the likes of former USC receiver Gary Bryant potentially in the mix, A&M could add even more depth to this unit should they be aggressive in the coming weeks.
