On300 CB Cobey Sellers commits to Texas A&M

Pearland (Texas) Shadow Creek On300 cornerback Cobey Sellers announced his commitment to Texas A&M on Saturday.

The 6-foot, 170-pound Sellers chose to play for head coach Mike Elko and the Aggies over his other finalists in Oklahoma, LSU, Georgia, Oregon and Texas. 

“I feel like it was right for me because Coach (Jordan) Peterson, Coach Elko and Coach (Jay) Bateman all come from DB backgrounds and I feel they’re the best developers in the game right now,” Sellers explained. “I feel to get to the NFL I have to go through them.”

Sellers took a couple spring visits to Texas A&M and the Aggies surged into the lead following those experiences.

“I feel like coming in Coach Elko is doing a good job of establishing a culture and recruiting players that not only benefit A&M on the field but off the field,” Sellers said. “That’s a big thing in having a successful program.”

Aggies pushing for a Top 10 class

The On3 Industry ranks Sellers as the nation’s No. 20 cornerback and No. 165 prospect overall. He becomes commit No. 11 for Texas A&M in the 2025 cycle. This was a class that ranked No. 13 prior to Sellers announcement.

“I just feel like its the right place,” Sellers said. “It’s an hour and 45 minutes from my house. My family is able to come to every game without having to travel very far. That’s a big thing for me. I want them at every game.

Sellers believes Bateman can get the best out him with his scheme.

“Coach Bateman coming from Florida he brought a few guys with him,” Sellers explained. “He knows what he’s doing, getting all his players prepared for the next level.”

Sellers will will now put on his recruiting cap.

“I’m still recruiting two of my friends Max Granville and Jonah Williams two of my closest friends,” Sellers said. “I feel if we can get them on board I feel we will be an unstoppable team.”
