With Charlie Strong now at Texas, the rivalry between the Longhorns and Aggies has intensified off the field. Add in the recent success of Baylor and TCU, and one of the country's recruiting hotbeds has become a four-team battle. With national signing day less than a week away, here are five players Kevin Sumlin and Texas A&M hope to sign.

Even with a roster full of young, talented receivers, Kemah Siverand isn't afraid to compete for playing time. The Cypress Ridge High standout committed to the Aggies back in May and has shown no signs of signing elsewhere. He recently posted photos of his family's Texas A&M mailbox and his No. 16 Aggies jersey to social media. The number may have to change (No. 16 is currently worn by QB Kobe Miller), but the commitment won't.

4. Larry Pryor, Jr. (S-Sulphur Springs, Tx.)

Another player who committed to Texas A&M last year is safety Larry Pryor, Jr. Like Siverand, Pryor is expected to stay committed to the Aggies. He also played QB and WR at Sulphur Springs High, but is expected to be a safety in college. Besides football, he also lettered in baseball, basketball and track. Armani Watts and Donovan Wilson appear to have the starting safety spots wrapped up in 2015, but Pryor could see the field in a reserve role.

3. Kyler Murray (QB-Allen, Tx.)

The Texas A&M commit caused quite a stir when he made a late visit to the Texas Longhorns. In the end, he decided to follow in his father's footsteps and stay committed to the Aggies. His father Kevin was an all-american QB for Texas A&M in 1985 and 1986. Dual-threat QB Kyler Murray was named the Gatorade and Parade Magazine player of the year after his senior season. He finished with a 42-0 record as the starting QB at Allen High.

2. Soso Jamabo (RB-Plano, Tx.)

Despite announcing that he narrowed his choices to the University of Phoenix and ITT Tech, Texas A&M is still very much in play for the 6-foot-2 RB. Texas, Notre Dame and UCLA are also in the mix. His size and ability to catch the football have led some to project a move to WR in his future, but he'll receive a shot at RB first. The Longhorns are favored to land Soso Jamabo, but Texas A&M will look to increase its efforts as signing day nears.

The No. 1 target for Texas A&M is 6-foot, 330-pound DT Daylon Mack. He's also the top target of Texas and TCU. All three schools made late pitches to the Gladewater High star. Although he won't reveal his choice until signing day, he tweeted earlier today he had made up his mind. He committed to A&M back in October of 2013, but decommitted in December of 2014. Pairing Mack with DE Myles Garrett would give the Aggies a star-studded defensive line.
