Texas A&M Football beats the Longhorns to sign another key defensive lineman

The Texas A&M football team has really hit its stride on the recruiting front with summer approaching. The newest addition to their class is top-100 player Adonyss Currie from Quartz Hill High School in Lancaster, California. Currie has chosen to play for the Aggies over the Miami Hurricanes, Nebraska Cornhuskers and Texas Longhorns.

Currie is the second highest-rated recruit in the Aggies' class, behind QB Husan Longstreet. He is the fourth CB in the class. Although he is ranked 74th overall, 247Sports has him 42nd in its internal rankings.

According to his social media pages, Currie is 6'3″, which helps Mike Elko make big, long turns in this class. He has a recorded 100m time of 10.57 seconds – a real bullseye at the limit.

This is another win for Mike Elko over the Texas Longhorns when it comes to cornerbacks. The Aggies beat the team in Austin earlier this month in the battle for Cobey Sellers. The Aggies are also locked in heated battles with the Horns for several other five-star talents in this class – so far, they've done well in those head-to-head matchups.

If all goes well, the Aggies could potentially make it three out of three with California's top players. Five-star DB Dijon Lee will be visiting College Station this summer, and the Aggies could graduate their CB class with flying colors if he pulls the trigger.

This was a huge win for the Aggies and further bolstered the very long and very fast cornerback class for Mike Elko. Defensive back seems to be his specialty both on and off the field right now as the Aggies are absolutely cleaning up when recruiting that position.
