Elite WR Evan Stewart Officially Signs With Aggies
As far as top priorities for the class of 2022 go, wide receiver Evan Stewart might be at the top of the list for Texas A&M.
And on Thursday, the former Longhorns commit decided to stick with the choice made in November and sign Jimbo Fisher and the Aggies.
Despite Stewart committing to the Aggies for nearly a month, Stewart saw a strong push down the stretch to Early Signing Day by the Texas. The Longhorns used Quinn Ewers, an overhauled offensive line class and Sarkisian's offensive expertise as their last gasp.
And while Stewart was indeed intrigued by the possibilities at Texas, the allure being a main target and offensive stud in College Station, plus the relationships developed with his fellow 2022 commits and the coaching staff, was simply too much to overcome for the burnt orange.
Stewart currently ranks as Sports Illustrated's No. 2 wide receiver and No. 12 overall player in the country, and was arguably the top uncommitted player left on the board.
Standing 6-feet and weighing 170 pounds, the Frisco Liberty star decided to forgo the remainder of his senior season and focus on the next stage of his career earlier this fall.
Before making his decision, Stewart had 19 catches for 414 yards and three touchdowns.
In his junior season in 2020, Stewart hauled in 46 catches for 913 yards and six touchdowns. He had 43 receptions for 757 yards and seven touchdowns as a sophomore.
Known as a dangerous vertical threat with excellent run-after-the-catch ability, Stewart can play either in the slot or on the outside. He has a high upside as a route runner in the right offense.
Also a track-and-field standout, Stewart has a personal-best 10.74 100-meter, a 21.08 200-meter, a 24-6 long jump and a 47-9 triple jump.
Scout's Take
A truly explosive talent, the Texan is a big play waiting to happen no matter where he lines up. As fast or faster than all others at the position, Stewart flashes the blurring ability on tape with verified track times to support. However, the one-time Texas commitment isn't just a track star who can catch football, he is a football player who also runs track. Polish is present in his route-running ability and finishing ability, not to mention easy dynamics while operating in space. Stewart is one of the best angle-breakers in the class, making secondary prospects look foolish with his ability to come out of his breaks and/or get north-south on short to intermediate routes. When he fill out his frame more, watch out.
