Texas A&M’s future linebacker rotation will now include 2026 four-star Tank King, who committed to the Aggies over Notre Dame, Alabama, and Michigan on July 4, and is quickly becoming one of the more sought-after flip candidates before Early Signing Day on December 4. However, King’s strong relationship with defensive coordinator Jay Bateman shouldn’t result in any further movement.
This summer, King has put in the work to refine his skill set, especially at a position that now requires more athleticism and quickness to cover tight ends, and even receivers at the next level. King has worked with former Texas A&M defensive back Donnie Baggs, showing off his change of direction, zone drops, and downhill/lateral movements in a recent video this month.

At every level, football players need to lift weights and work with position coaches, such as Donnie Baggs, to be ready for the next level, which will only increase in physical demand, especially if younger players like King want to see the field early. This weekend, King reportedly worked out with former Texas A&M commit Drelon Miller, who is entering his second season with Colorado.
A four-star wide receiver in the 2024 recruiting class, Miller committed to the Aggies in June of 2023 before decommitting in the fall and signing with Colorado that December. During his freshman season with Colorado, Miller reeled in 32 receptions for 277 yards and three touchdowns, which was less than many of us were expecting based on his elite skill set.
While Miller has been a rumored flip candidate himself, there is no validity regarding any new connection with the Aggies as of late. Still, never say never in today’s recruiting age, and his budding relationship with Tank King could be a turning point.
