JUST IN: Oscar Delp Stuns SEC — Decommits from Georgia, Commits to Texas A&M in Recruiting Earthquake
In a seismic recruiting twist that has sent shockwaves across the college football world, 5-star tight end Oscar Delp (6’5”, 245 lbs) has officially decommitted from the Georgia Bulldogs and announced his commitment to the Texas A&M Aggies, choosing the Aggies over fierce contenders LSU and Arkansas.
Delp, widely regarded as the No. 1 tight end in the 2025 class, had long been considered a cornerstone piece of Georgia’s offensive future. The Bulldog faithful had high hopes that Delp would carry the legacy of elite Georgia tight ends like Brock Bowers and Darnell Washington. However, after months of swirling speculation behind the scenes, Delp made the stunning announcement Thursday evening in a televised segment and via social media: “After deep reflection, I have decided to reopen my recruitment and ultimately commit to Texas A&M University. Gig ’Em!”
Sources close to the situation say that NIL opportunities, offensive scheme changes, and a strong personal connection with Aggies tight ends coach James Coley played a pivotal role in the flip. Insiders report that a recent visit to College Station sealed the deal—Delp was reportedly “blown away” by the Aggies’ facilities, culture, and the chance to become the face of a revitalized SEC offense under new offensive coordinator Kendal Briles.
Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko called it a “program-changing commitment,” noting, “Oscar isn’t just a tight end—he’s a matchup nightmare, a leader, and a difference-maker. This is a big win for the Aggie family.”
LSU and Arkansas were both considered finalists, with the Tigers believed to have made a late push involving an NIL package rumored to rival that of A&M. However, Delp’s bond with the Aggie coaching staff and vision for early usage in a pass-heavy system proved irresistible.
Georgia fans, while disappointed, took to social media with a mix of disbelief and appreciation. One fan tweeted: “Hurt? Yes. Shocked? Absolutely. But Oscar will always be a DGD in our hearts.”
Delp is expected to enroll early in January 2026 and is projected to start immediately for the Aggies.
