2026 4-star DL has canceled his visit to Texas A&M this summer
2026 4-star DL has canceled his visit to Texas A&M this summer
Last week, it was reported that one of the top defensive tackle prospects in the 2026 cycle, four-star JaReylan McCoy, would take an official visit to Texas A&M this summer. Still, as of Sunday night, it was revealed that the talented pass rusher will instead take an official visit to Austin, Texas, this summer.
According to OrangeBloods (Rivals) writer Jason Suchomel, who recently spoke with McCoy, the former LSU commit visited Florida this weekend and will visit Texas unofficially and officially sometime soon. The Aggies are likely out of the running for his commitment unless something changes in the near future.
McCoy isn't a desperate need for Texas A&M's 2026 recruiting class after landing commitments from four-star defensive linemen Trashawn Ruffin and Jermaine Kinsler, while the Longhorns are looking to build their future defensive line to prepare for the impending departures after the 2025 season.
After recording 11 sacks and 23 tackles for loss during his 2023 sophomore season, McCoy finished with 7.5 tackles for loss and 1.5 sacks in 2024.
According to 247Sports Composite, JaReylan McCoy is currently positioned as the 119th-ranked prospect in the 2026 cycle, the 13th-ranked defensive lineman, and the 7th-ranked prospect in Mississippi.

Florida football a candidate for first College Football Playoff berth in 2025
Florida football a candidate for first College Football Playoff berth in 2025 Florida football is earning national attention as one of the top programs poised to make their first College Football Playoff appearance in 2025, according to CBS Sports' Carter Bahns. Following the CFP's expansion to a 12-team format in 2024, the door has opened wider than ever for rising programs to break through. The Gators' late-season surge–powered by DJ Lagway's rapid development, a veteran offensive line and improved defense–helped shift the narrative surrounding Billy Napier's tenure as Florida's skipper. Entering his fourth season with the Orange and Blue, Napier now leads one of the SEC's most intriguing rosters heading into the fall. With the CFP now allowing multiple teams from power conferences like the SEC, Florida doesn't need to win the league to earn a postseason spot. Instead, a top-three finish in the conference could be enough to secure a long-awaited playoff berth. Here is everything Bahns wrote about the Florida Gators and why they could have a real shot at the playoffs next season. Everything CBS Sports said about the Gators "Florida sure looked like it turned a corner last November. Consecutive wins over ranked opponents, a four-game winning streak to close the year and a freshman-year breakout from DJ Lagway could not have come at a more opportune time for Billy Napier," Bahns notes. "If the last month of 2024 was a harbinger of success to come, the Gators coach could go from the hot seat to the playoff in just over a calendar year. It does not take much imagination to envision a breakthrough season, especially since Lagway has a talented receiving corps and one of college football's strongest offensive lines at his side."
