Football Recruiting: 2017 Timber Creek OL Alan Ali

The 6-5, 295-pound Timber Creek offensive lineman made his first trip to Aggieland on Saturday with his father, and it didn't disappoint.

"It was great!" Ali said. "I love everything about Texas A&M. My dad had a great time also, and we were blown away by the new stadium and facilities."

The young road grader had an up-close experience, spending some quality time in the Bright complex before the 6:30 kickoff. In addition to talking with Kevin Sumlin, he spent some time with a pair of Aggie assistants.
