Texas A&M Aggies Star Evan Stewart Enters NCAA Transfer Portal
The losses continue to mount for the Texas A&M Aggies football program.
Last month, the Aggies fired their head coach, Jimbo Fisher, after six seasons with the program. After that firing, the losses began with wideout Raymond Cottrell entering the NCAA Transfer portal.
Now, another player has entered his name into the portal. And this time, it's a big one: star wide receiver, Evan Stewart.
Stewart has played in just eight games this season and has missed two of the last three games for the Aggies, including both of their matchups with Mississippi State and Ole Miss.
He also did not travel with the team to Baton Rouge for the team's regular-season finale vs. LSU.
Among the rumored schools in contention for the now-former Aggies star are the Texas Longhorns, Alabama Crimson Tide, and Ohio State Buckeyes, among others.

On the season Stewart has made 38 catches for 514 yards and four touchdowns - he is second on the team in all three categories.
Perhaps the most high-profile player on the entire Texas A&M roster, Stewart came to the Aggies as the No. 1 player in Texas, the No. 2 wide receiver in the nation, and the No. 8 overall player in the nation, per the On3 industry ranking.
He was also the headline player in the Aggies' historic 2022 recruiting class, which ranked No. 1 all-time by multiple recruiting services, and picked the Aggies over Texas, Alabama, and Georgia.
A one-time Texas Longhorns commit, Stewart de-committed from the Horns in March of 2021, just two months after the hiring of Steve Sarkisian.
Stewart then committed to the Aggies just before the 2022 Early Signing Period on Nov. 29, and eventually signed his letter of intent on Dec 16.
He went on to have a tremendous freshman campaign, making 53 catches for 649 yards and two touchdowns.
