Jackson Cantwell, a towering offensive lineman and the top recruit of the 2026 class, announced on Monday that he will reveal his college decision on April 30.
Standing 6-foot-7 and weighing 300 pounds, the Nixa, Mo., native is a key target for Georgia. Miami, defending national champion Ohio State, and Oregon are also vying for the highly sought-after offensive tackle, who recently grabbed attention in another sport with a remarkable shot put throw.
On the last day of April, the college football world will finally learn where Cantwell will bring his immense talent in 2026.
Cantwell had originally planned to make his commitment later this summer after completing a series of official visits. However, Monday’s announcement has changed those plans. He will now reveal his decision on April 30 and is expected to visit Oregon for the Ducks’ spring game on April 26. That visit will likely be his last before making his commitment.
Just four days after attending the spring game, Cantwell will announce which college will be the fortunate recipient of his commitment. The wait for the college football world has been shortened from several months to just a few weeks.
