Texas A&M held its second one-day camp of the month on Sunday at the Coolidge Grass Practice Fields in College Station, Texas and there was plenty of action during -- and after -- the camp when it came to recruiting. Among the highlights:
Aggies offer 2014 OT
La Grange (Texas) High School offensive tackle Zachary Ledwik has seen his recruiting stock skyrocket recently. A week ago, Texas offered the 6-foot-5 prospect and on Sunday, Texas A&M became the latest team to offer Ledwik. He weighed in at 273 pounds and with a handful of power conference offers already (Arizona State, Baylor, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma State, Oregon State and Texas Tech are the others), he's finding that his decision will be a difficult one. Ledwik will return to Texas today for a visit and after that's complete, he said he plans to schedule an unofficial visit to return to Texas A&M.

McKINNEY, Texas -- The 2013 Nike Football Festival made a stop in north Texas, and 24 teams from the Dallas metroplex and east Texas showed their skills in 7-on-7 competition and individual skills challenges at Craig Ranch and the Michael Johnson Performance Center. Roughly 400 athletes were in attendance, some considered major FBS recruits.
Here is what we learned after the event:
2015 QB Murray wins ... twice
That sigh of relief you heard in McKinney? It’s still to be determined if it was from the Allen faithful or the Texas A&M faithful.
Saturday afternoon, Allen won the event's 7-on-7 tournament, and 2015 quarterback Kyler Murray looked phenomenal in competition. He made the same kind of plays in the air that allowed him to lead Allen to the Texas Class 5A Division-I state championship in December. In short, Murray was outstanding.
Shortly after, the 5-foot-11, 166-pound quarterback picked up the much-anticipated offer that made Aggies fans gush. Murray, the son of former Aggies quarterback Kevin Murray, finally got an offer from Texas A&M to join offers from Ohio State, Clemson, Texas Tech, Arkansas and Arizona State.

Aggies QB Kohl Stewart to pursue baseball

HOUSTON -- Even though so many who followed the journey of Houston St. Pius X pitcher and 2013 ESPN 150 quarterback Kohl Stewart assumed that the flame-throwing righthander already had his mind and heart set on going to pro baseball, Stewart himself planned to be a Texas A&M Aggie.
Courtesy of Deanna Werner/St. Pius XKohl Stewart said he wants to sign as quickly as possible so he can join the Twins organization.
It's what he grew up wanting to be. His family -- parents, siblings -- are Aggies and the fact that he had a scholarship to play football there "floored" him.
Until the first round of the 2013 MLB draft on Thursday night, one option was real and the other wasn't. His mother, Lisa, said as much Friday afternoon. Stewart, the No. 6-ranked pocket passer in the country, signed a letter of intent to play football at Texas A&M in February.
On Thursday, baseball became real when the Minnesota Twins selected Stewart fourth overall in the draft and on Friday, Stewart stated his desire to pursue professional baseball.
"I'm extremely excited to be a Twin," Stewart said. "I'm fortunate that they took me and I'm excited to help them in any way I can."

MESQUITE, Texas -- Class of 2015 quarterback Kyler Murray (Allen, Texas/Allen) has five offers so far, and his list of interested schools continues to grow.
Murray took in a satellite camp hosted by Sam Houston State and assisted by Arizona State, one of the schools to have offered, on Thursday afternoon. While he chose to watch the camp and not participate, Murray said he was a fan of what he saw from the Arizona State coaches.
"I've been talking to [offensive coordinator] Coach [Mike] Norvell, and he told me they liked me," Murray said. "I like what they're doing over there. I'm definitely interested."

ESPN 150 QB Stewart taken 4th in MLB draft

The picture cleared up just a little bit for Kohl Stewart (Houston/St. Pius X) on Thursday.
The 2013 ESPN 150 quarterback and highly-regarded high school pitching prospect, who signed with Texas A&M to play football, was chosen fourth overall in the first round of the 2013 MLB First-Year Player Draft by the Minnesota Twins on Thursday, setting the stage for a life-altering decision.
Stewart, a 6-foot-3, 190-pound righthander, signed a national letter of intent with the Aggies' football team on Feb. 6, now must decide whether to join Texas A&M or forego college ball in order to pursue professional baseball.
His pitching repertoire, which includes a fastball that rises into the mid-90 mph range, has made him a top baseball draft prospect for more than a year. On the football field, he was the nation's sixth-ranked pocket passer, a four-star prospect who was No. 96 overall in the ESPN 150.
ESPN baseball scouts say Stewart "has four legitimate pitches with an athletic, strong build and the potential for two grade-70s offerings on the 20-80 scouting scale. His fastball is consistently 92-94, touching 97, with good downhill plane."
During a press conference on national signing day in February, Aggies head coach Kevin Sumlin stated that he and Stewart already had candid conversations about his future.
"Our conversations with him have been that we'd love to have him, he wants to come here," Sumlin said. "But also, there's nothing wrong with being Brandon Weeden. I told him if he wants to go play, go play. We'll still have a place for you when you're 25. That's worked out for a lot of people too. He understood that."
The deadline for 2013 draft picks to sign with the teams the have chosen them is 5 p.m. eastern time on July 12.
