Little back on the market

Allen (Texas) five-star offensive tackle Gregory Little committed to Texas A&M the summer before his junior season over scholarship offers from powerhouse programs across the country. However, the phone calls did not stop and over time circumstances began to change.

Monday, Little decided to re-open his recruiting process and decommitted from the Texas A&M Aggies.
There have been clues a decommitment might be coming. In March at the
Rivals Camp Series in Dallas, Little maintained he was committed, but he also did not hide his interest in Alabama, LSU, Georgia, USC and UCLA. He mentioned Alabama was the biggest threat to Texas A&M at the time.
Fast forward a few months to the Rivals100 Five-Star Challenge Presented by Under Armour, and Little again stated he was committed. However his commitment was only a four or five on a scale to 10, and four other schools -- Ohio State, Alabama, Ole Miss, and LSU -- joined Texas A&M to make a top five.
Following the Five-Star Challenge, Little took trips to Alabama and Ole Miss. He has mentioned plans to visit LSU in July and Ohio State before the summer. He is also trying to visit USC and UCLA at some point, and Georgia and Auburn have been listed in the past as visit possibilities.
In June, he said he would like to take all five of his official visits, and he mentioned Alabama, LSU, Ole Miss, and Ohio State as potential destinations.
Little was named the Offensive Line MVP at the Rivals100 Five-Star Challenge Presented by Under Armour in June, and he is one of the few two-time Rivals100 Five-Star Challenge attendees. He is currently ranked No. 9 in the Rivals100, No. 1 among the nation's 2016 offensive tackles, and No. 1 in the Rivals.com Texas Spring Top 100.
