Razorbacks beat out several SEC teams for 2026 nose tackle

He is an impressive athlete along the defensive line and is capable of running down players in the backfield with underrated speed.

McGee committed to the Razorbacks over offers from has 22 other schools including Auburn, Purdue, LSU, Michigan, Missouri, South Carolina, Texas A&M, USC and many more.

He is the No. 1,404 ranked athlete in the 2026 class, No. 133 among defensive tackles and No. 140 in the state of Georgia, according to 247sports.

Going into his senior season, McGee has trimmed off nearly 40 pounds off his body in order to become more agile and display his versatility at multiple spots along the defensive line but specifically nose tackle.

McGee is the fouth defensive lineman to commit to Arkansas 2026 class as 4-star Colton Yarbrough, versatlie 3-star lineman Ari Slocum and Auburn, Alabama 3-star defensive tackle Carnell Jackson.

The Razorbacks class is now at 20 commitments in the cycle and is ranked No. 4 among SEC teams and No. 12 nationally.

Defensive line coach Deke Adams has been one of the most consistent recruiters on Arkansas' staff since he joined the program for the 2022 season.

Just last season, Adams ranked No. 3 among his conference peers and No. 28 nationally for assistants who serve in the same role.

He helped signed a five-man class which averaged a grade of 88.81 points that is headlined by a pair 4-star lineman Kevin Oatis and Reginald Vaughn.

Since Adams' arrival at Arkansas in 2022, he has added six 4-star defensive lineman in Oatis, Vaughn, Charlie Collins (2024), Kavion Henderson (2024), Quincy Rhodes (2023) and Colton Yarbrough (2026).

His recruiting has improved with each passing cycle since joining the staff as he finished 2023 at No. 95 in the SEC, No. 65 in 2025 and No. 28 this year.

The Razorbacks defensive line production dropped a bit in 2024 and much of that was due to defensive coordinator Travis Williams shift to more of a three man front.
