No. 1 dual-threat QB commits to Texas A&M
Texas A&M has done it again.
Tate Martell, the No. 1 dual-threat quarterback for 2017, committed to Texas A&M Thursday night via Twitter.

Martell committed to the Aggies over Alabama, USC, Washington and Michigan.
The 5-foot-11, 180-pound dual-threat signal caller is ranked as the No. 12 overall prospect for the class of 2017, and he earned National Sophomore of the Year honors last season.
“It’s A&M, that’s where I’m going,” he said of his pledge, via 247Sports.
“I knew where I wanted to go. I wasn’t planning on committing this early but, when I went out there and took the visit, I just knew that’s where I wanted to be.”
Assuming Martell’s commitment sticks, the Aggies will have landed the No. 1 quarterback in three of four recruiting classes. Kyle Allen was the first, and Kyler Murray was the second.
