FIVE-STAR LITTLE 50% COMMITTED...

National Recruiting Analyst

Scout National Analyst Greg Powers spoke with No. 1 rated offensive tackle Greg Little about his spring, his development and his current commitment status to Texas A&M...

11 months ago Scout five-star Greg Little, a 6-foot-6, 285-pound offensive tackle from Allen (Texas) made his commitment to play for Texas A&M.

As the No. 1 rated offensive tackle in the country he had offers from coast-to-coast to consider before making his non-binding verbal pledge to the Aggies.

And in that time he has been very forthright about where he stands with the recruiting process.

He is still committed, but there is not any doubt that he is still looking at all of his options as well.

"Right now I am about 50% committed," Little reported. "I have a couple of visits coming up and that is about it right now."

1
COMMITTED

Analysis: Shows that he has the athleticism, the frame, and the footwork to become a true college tackle prospect. Has that long arm looking frame that could handle additional strength easily as he matures. No surprise to find out that he is a basketball player as well, because of his lateral range. Flashes the ability to knock defenders back with his initial contact and shows balance by being able to keep good leg drive and finish consistently. - Powers
Little went on to explain what schools he has plans to see this summer as he tries to get a better grasp on what he will do come signing day 2016.

As you can expect they are all heavy hitters.

"Visits coming up I have Ole Miss, Alabama at the beginning of June," Little explained. "Also Ohio State, LSU and Texas A&M."

"What I want to see is just the culture and everything and what they bring and how as a man that they can develop me."

Coming off of three consecutive state championships Allen is in a bit of a reloading stage as it will replace some of its top statistical producers on the offensive side.

Little is the anchor of the offensive line and is being looked to for senior leadership.

"It was pretty good," Little informed when asked about how the team looked this spring without guys like Kyler Murray, Jalen Guyton, Bobby Evans and Cody Wheeler.

"We had a pretty good spring ball overall. Just getting guys developed and helping them getting to know their plays. That is the hard part.

"Just staying in shape and losing some baby fat, Little said with a laugh as he continued on his own personal development.

One fun rivalry that became apparent throughout the course of the spring game was the one he had with fellow Eagle defensive end Levi Onwuzurike.

They were going at it all night long.

"It is a lot of fun," Little said. "We are getting better. Two great guys competing. Lot of bumps and bruises, but you can't complain."

Little has received an invitation and will compete in The Opening finals.

As a junior in 2014, Little helped pave the way for the Eagles third consecutive state championship and undefeated season earning Scout All-Midlands, 6A All-State and All-District honors.
