Texas A&M football, Mike Elko land 2028 5-star quarterback Donald Tabron II
Tabron II is the third highest-ranked quarterback in the 2028 recruiting cycle.
The Aggie football program has landed their first 2028 five-star quarterback, Donald Tabron II, marking a significant commitment for head coach Mike Elko. The Texas native, standing at 6-foot-3.5 and weighing 180 pounds, is the No. 49 overall prospect according to 247Sports, ranking as the third-ranked quarterback and fourth overall player in the 2028 class.
Tabron, who committed to the Aggies on August 15, outperformed offers from LSU and Oregon. With Tabron's addition, six of the top seven quarterbacks in the 2028 USA TODAY Sports composite ranking have now committed to college programs. Tabron will head into his second full season as a starter for Cass Tech (Detroit, MI), where he led the offense to a 2024 state title and a 2025 season where he completed 65% of his passes for 1,656 yards, 17 touchdowns, and only seven interceptions.
His commitment is the second for Texas A&M in the 2028 cycle, joining Christopher Vargas (Ohio State) as the first. Since Conner Weigman in 2022, Texas A&M's highest-rated quarterback commitment has been Tabron.
