Alabama, Georgia and Texas A&M were all jockeying for the No. 1 recruiting class on Wednesday, but it was the Aggies who were able to pull ahead to claim the top class after the first day of the early signing period.
Texas A&M has steadily risen in the class rankings over the last few weeks and finally pulled ahead of Alabama for the No. 1 class by landing four ESPN 300 commitments.
The Aggies were able to sign the No. 1 prospect overall, defensive tackle Walter Nolen, after reports surfaced that Nolen might be entertaining Tennessee.
