As the college football offseason continues to roll on, many teams are starting to put a tremendous amount of effort into landing players in the 2026 recruiting class.

One name that has been making a lot of noise is Class of 2026 offensive tackle Immanuel Iheanacho out of Baltimore, Maryland, who stands at a staggering 6-foot-7 and weighs 350 pounds
On Friday, On3's Hayes Fawcett reported that Iheanacho has significantly narrowed down his list and will be choosing between LSU Tigers, Oregon Ducks, Penn State Nittany Lions and Auburn Tigers.
Of course, it's a big decision, and Iheanacho even went to social media to get the opinion of some fans, reposting Fawcett's report with a caption featuring a house emoji followed by a question mark.
There's no doubt that all four of these teams would love to land him, as he's listed as a five-star recruit, the No. 2 offensive tackle, the No. 1 player in Maryland and the No. 3 player in the nation, per On3 Industry Rankings.

Throughout his high school career, Iheanacho has proven to be a dominant player, being named a 2024 MaxPreps Junior All-American after not allowing a single sack during his most recent season.
Of course, all four programs will get a chance to host Iheanacho for official visits. He'll be at Auburn on Friday, having already visited LSU on May 30, and will visit Penn State on June 13 and Oregon on June 20.

Before making his official decision on Aug. 5, much of the momentum favors Oregon, as the On3 recruiting prediction machine currently gives it the best chances (86.1%) to land Iheanacho's commitment.
