Longhorns offer offensive lineman in 2026 class
As the Longhorns look to add to their offensive line, one prospect they are showing interest in is Grayson McKeogh. On Monday, the Longhorns offered the 2026 four-star recruit. While McKeogh's recruiting tour has just gotten underway, he is drawing interest from some of the top programs in the country. Currently, the Longhorns' top competition is Penn State and Notre Dame. The Pennsylvania native already has a visit set with both, and Texas hopes to see them join that list. If they were able to land, Mckeogh Steve Sarkisian and the Longhorns would be getting one of the top tackles left on the board. Advertisement The La Salle High School product is ranked as the 22nd-best offensive lineman and sixth-best prospect from Pennsylvania in his class. That is partly why he has been a popular target for schools nationwide. He has also gotten offers from Boston College, Duke, Indiana, and Liberty. While McKeogh has plenty of options on the table, he has the chance to join a talented Longhorn 2026 class. It already includes Dia Bell, Jermaine Bishop Jr., Chris Stewart, Max Wright, and Hayward Howard Jr. Over the next few weeks, more names should join that list as recruiting season continues. Although the Longhorns are not the favorites at the moment, they have made their interest clear. It will be interesting to see how Mckeogh's market develops as he gets closer to a decision and more teams make their interest known. The Longhorns hope the process ends with him in Austin.
