Top Defensive Recruit Walter Nolen Sticks with Texas A&M on Signing Day

The biggest piece, literally and figuratively, of perhaps the nation's top college football recruiting class is officially in.

Walter Nolen, the top defensive recruit in the class of 2022, committed to Texas A&M in November and will stick with the Aggies, he announced Wednesday. The Powell (Tenn.) High School standout sent in a National Letter of Intent to Jimbo Fisher on his staff as part of the Early Signing Period during the afternoon.

"I chose Texas A&M because Coach Fisher has been building a lot of good teams around there," Nolen told Sports Illustrated.
