    Texas A&M head coach Buzz Williams and his staff are building a strong foundation with their 2025 recruiting efforts. The Southeastern Conference school has recently landed verbal pledges from two four-star prospects.

    Most recently, 2025 four-star wing/small forward Jasir Rencher verbally committed to the Aggies on Thursday. The 6-foot-5, 195-pound Rencher had a final five of Texas A&M, LSU, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Washington. However, in an interview with 247Sports national basketball director Eric Bossi, he said that his recruitment came down to the Aggies and LSU .

    Rencher, a senior at Archbishop Riordan High School in San Francisco, received 20 scholarship offers throughout his recruitment, according to 247Sports . Within the 2025 class, he is rated in the top 75 overall and the top 25 at small forward, per Rivals.com.

    On his decision to head to Texas A&M, Rencher told On3 national reporter Joe Tipton :

    "Coach Buzz is a magnificent teacher on and off the court. He was the first high major coach to know my name and he had a belief in me since then. He also has 19 NBA players as a head coach so he knows what he’s doing and he knows what a pro looks like."

    The pledge by Rencher comes not long after Texas A&M first got on the board in the 2025 cycle. In late September, four-star combo guard Jeremiah Green, out of the AZ Compass Prep School in Chandler, Ariz., verbally committed to the Aggies over other finalists, Oklahoma, TCU, Mississippi State, and LSU.

    On a national scale within the 2025 class, ESPN ranks the 6-foot-3, 175-pound Green at No. 64 overall and No. 16 at point guard.

    According to Rivals.com , Texas A&M's two-member 2025 cycle is No. 15 nationwide. Williams and his assistants, per recruiting Web sites, continue to pursue various other high school seniors , such as four-star center John Clark and four-star power forward Sebastian Williams-Adams.

    On the court in the upcoming 2024-25 campaign, the Aggies are looking to build off of a 2023-24 season when they went 21-15 overall and reached the second round of the NCAA Tournament, where No. 9 seed Texas A&M lost to No. 1 seed Houston in overtime.
