Vanderbilt Lands Commitment from 3-Star EDGE Jace McCallum

A 6-foot-4, 220 lb. edge rusher, McCallum is ranked by 247Sports' composite ranking as the No. 38 player at his position in the nation and the No. 21 player in the state of North Carolina.

He hails from Hickory Ridge High School where in 2024, he finished his junior season with 44 tackles, 18 TFL's and 12 sacks. He has long arms and is extremely aggressive at the point of attack, giving him the ability to shed blockers with ease.

With now ten commitments in the 2026 recruiting class, Vanderbilt looks to be closing in on one of the top recruiting classes in recent program memory. The Commodores currently have the No. ___ class in the nation, according to 247Sports' composite ranking, which would be the programs best finish since Lea took over as head coach.
