•Yahoo Sports

2027 4-star TE Jordan Karhoff has included Texas A&M within his final five program list ahead of his College Station OV on June 5.

Texas A&M's 2026 spring season officially opened the practice schedule on Friday, and coach Mike Elko, who is entering his third season at the helm, will use this opportunity to host a wide range of elite prospects from the 2027 recruiting class, including five-star running back Landen Williams-Callis and five-star offensive lineman Mark Matthews, this weekend. On Friday, one of the Aggies' priority prospects released his final 5 list: four-star tight end and Ohio native Jordan Karhoff will decide between Georgia, Miami, Virginia Tech, Ohio State, and Texas A&M, and is set to take an official visit to College Station on June 5. Mike Elko's last two recruiting cycles have included some of the top prospects at every position, including tight end Kiotti Armstrong, who will contend for a starting job this spring/fall.

In the 2027 cycle, Elko and his staff have yet to land a tight end commit, but are also in contention for the No. 1-ranked TE Ahmad Hudson , and are looking to make significant progress with both players this summer before the 2026 season begins. On the field, similar to Kiotti Armstrong, Kahoff has also seen time at defensive end, which is highly intriguing.

Appearing in just three games last season, Karhoff is fully healthy and ready to take the field during his final high school season, and could make his final commitment decisions months or weeks beforehand. For Elko, landing Hudson or Karhoff is a win-win and will secure a position vital to the future offense's success. According to 247Sports, Karhoff is currently positioned as the 19th-ranked tight end and the 15th-ranked prospect in Ohio.
