Texas A&M will reportedly host 2026 4-star SF on Saturday

2026 4-star wing TJ Crumble will attend Texas A&M’s home game vs. LSU on Saturday night

Texas A&M coach Buzz Williams’s sixth season with the program started with a bang during nonconference play. Still, after star point guard Wade Taylor IV for the last three SEC games, the Aggies sit at 13-4 and 2-2 in conference play after falling to Kentucky on Tuesday night.

While the season at hand is the primary focus, Williams has begun to make an impact on the recruiting trail, as the news that 2027 5-star wing Ryan Hampton is considering the Aggies was just a tiny portion of the evergrowing news regarding the program’s current influence among high school prospects.

Focusing on the 2026 cycle, Williams has yet to land a commitment in the class. Still, he will reportedly host four-star small forward/wing TJ Crumble out of Cleveland, Ohio, on Saturday, as the incoming senior will attend Texas A&M’s home matchup vs. LSU that evening.

In an interview with recruiting insider Kannon Torres, Crumble detailed why he’s considering the Aggies:

“The team plays as a whole. They play very hard, play fast; and have great chemistry together and that’s something I could see myself being a part of”

According to 247Sports, Crumble is currently positioned as the 91st-ranked prospect in the 2026 cycle, the 16th-ranked power forward, and the 3rd-ranked prospect in Ohio.

Texas A&M will return home to host LSU in Reed Arena on Jan. 18 at 7:30 p.m. CST. The game can be watched on the SEC Network.

Badgers offer four-star class of 2026 forward from Ohio

Badgers take stab at impressive class of 2026 player

Wisconsin offered TJ Crumble, a four-star class of 2026 forward from Cleveland, Ohio on Sunday. The 6-foot-7, 180-pound athlete is still a sophomore in high school and has two more years until he’d potentially make the leap to the collegiate level.

Crumble has now received 16 Division 1 offers, including five from within the Big Ten. Amongst those, Ohio State likely has the upper hand simply because they’re his home state school.

Wisconsin doesn’t have any commitments for 2026, though considering how far away that season is, it’s not much of a surprise. Regardless, Greg Gard’s squad will look to get back on track this year after missing the NCAA Tournament last year.
