3. JACKSON CANTWELL
quote:
Gorney's Take: The 6-foot-8, 300-pound offensive tackle from Nixa, Mo., not only has the size and skill to be an elite football player but he’s also a star in track and field and has one of the best pedigrees in the history of Rivals dating back to 2002.
Cantwell’s father, Christian, went to Missouri and then earned the silver medal in shot put in the 2008 Beijing Olympics and placed fourth in the 2012 London Olympics. His mother, Teri, competed in the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, Australia.
Oklahoma, Missouri and a host of others are involved.

The reason I didn’t say Stewart is the most impressive prospect in the entire 2026 class so far is because that honor might go to offensive lineman Jackson Cantwell out of small-town Nixa, Mo. He’s all of 6-foot-8 and 300 pounds, moves well for his size and he has the best pedigree of anyone as both of his parents were in the Olympics for track and field.

Both of Jackson Cantwell’s parents are former Olympic athletes, giving him an athletic pedigree that few recruits in recent memory can match. His genetic profile isn’t the only trait that stands out, as the Nixa (Mo.) product measures in at a towering 6-foot-8 and 300 pounds, with the athleticism to match his size, making him the prototype for a future NFL left tackle. While there may be a handful of 2026 recruits that can match his size, there are none that match his combination of size, athleticism and body control at this stage.
The NFL draft tells us that a quarterback is most likely to get drafted first overall, making the best player at that position more likely to land in the top spot each recruiting cycle. And while offensive tackle comes third in the NFL draft’s top pick pecking order, Cantwell has all of the tools to jockey for the top spot in his class.
The five-star will have his choice of any school in the country, but there are already five schools appearing to stand out above the rest in Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Arkansas, Georgia and Alabama.

Jackson Cantwell - Arkansas
quote:
It has to be considered a great sign for Arkansas that Cantwell is making a return trip to Fayetteville, and even though he’s a 2026 prospect with a lot of recruiting left before making his decision his relationships there are getting stronger.
Only about two hours from home, Arkansas is definitely an interesting option for Cantwell as Oklahoma and many others pursue him as the early five-star prospect is already making waves in recruiting.
