Meet The Yell Leaders
Kyler Fife '26
Head Yell Leader
Howdy! I am a senior Communication major from Odessa, TX, and a member of the Corps of Cadets in Squadron 5. As a first-generation Aggie, I had the opportunity to experience the power of the 12th Man and the Aggie Spirit during my first trip to Aggieland when I got to watch the Aggie football team BTHO Kent State. From that moment, I knew the Lord was calling me to one thing: to be a Fightin’ Texas Aggie. In my time at Texas A&M, I have experienced firsthand the Aggie Family and the spirit that can ne’er be told through the most vital traditions of Silver Taps, Bonfire Remembrance, and Aggie Muster. No other university in the world serves its students with the same dedication and urgency as Texas A&M. To be an Aggie is a blessing and one that I do not take lightly. In the last three years, I have had the opportunity to serve in many capacities to ensure that our traditions and the Aggie Spirit never die. That being said, I have had no greater privilege than the opportunity to lead your Texas Aggie Yell Leaders. I am beyond excited to live out this dream, and I can promise that this group will not hold back in our service to this university and the traditions we hold so dear.
Luke Widener '26
Howdy! I am a senior Economics major from Cincinnati, OH, and a member of the Corps of Cadets in Company E-2. As a second-generation Aggie, I have been blessed to experience the Spirit of Aggieland through my parents, family, and friends, even while living in Texas, Arkansas, and Ohio. From a young age, I saw how important being an Aggie was in the lives of those closest to me, and after coming to Texas A&M, it was clear that Aggieland is not just a university but a family. Since arriving on campus, I’ve been passionate about sharing the Spirit of Aggieland with all members of the Aggie family, just as it was shared with me. This spirit fuels the traditions that define our university, such as Silver Taps and Aggie Muster. It is a huge privilege and responsibility to have the platform as a Yell Leader alongside these four God-fearing men to carry out this passion. I am excited to serve and give back to the best student body in the world, the 12th Man!
Heath Flanagan '26
Howdy! My name is Heath Flanagan, and I am a senior Hospitality Management major from Rockwall, Texas, and a member in the Corps of Cadets in Company B-2. I am a first-generation Aggie, but my family has always supported Texas A&M over those t-sippers down in Austin. As you can tell, I dove headfirst into Texas A&M and now am an official ambassador of the Aggie Spirit. This university has cemented the core values my mom and dad have instilled in me all my life. Texas A&M is more than a university, it's a family that pushes you to be your best self. It teaches you what honor is and what it looks like through our traditions like Silver Taps, Muster, and Bonfire Memorial. I promise that this group of Yell Leaders will do our absolute best to ensure Texas A&M remains rooted in tradition and that the Aggie Spirit will never die.
Luke Rollins '27
Howdy! My name is Luke Rollins, and I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major from Fort Worth, Texas, and a member of the Corps of Cadets in Squadron 17. I’m a fourth-generation Aggie, and my family’s story is deeply rooted in Aggieland – from my great-grandfathers, Classes of 1906 and 1925, to my dad, Class of 1994 and a former Head Yell Leader. More than anything, I’m passionate about honoring the legacy of those who came before me, both in my family and across campus. I’m excited to give everything I have to serve this university, this student body, and the incredible traditions that make Texas A&M the greatest school in the world. The Spirit truly can ne’er be told, and I’m grateful every single day that I get to be a part of it.
Josh Brewton '27
Howdy! I am a junior Economics major from Cedar Park, TX, and a member of the Corps of Cadets in company E2. As a first-generation Aggie from the Austin area, I didn’t exactly grow up surrounded by Aggies, but nevertheless, Texas A&M has become a way of life for me. When I attended my first Silver Taps in the fall of my freshman year, I saw a physical embodiment of the Aggie Spirit that was thousands of students strong, showing their love and respect for a fellow Aggie, and I immediately knew that I was home. After this, I had the privilege of serving as Mascot Corporal and taking care of Miss Rev during my sophomore year. This gave me the chance to meet Aggies from all over campus and attend Aggie events across the country. Now that I have the opportunity to serve as a junior yell leader, I want nothing more than to share my love and passion for this great university with everyone I meet and continue to share my faith along the way. The best part about this opportunity is that I believe these two things, my faith and Texas A&M, go hand in hand, which is another reason why I love this university so much. I am so excited for this wonderful opportunity and the year to come!
