5-Star 2026 Prospect Jackson Cantwell Commits To Miami

Meathead Mario keeps finding a way to win these recruiting battles for the top tier fat guys up front, huh? 5-Star offensive line prospect Jackson Cantwell for the 2026 cycle is on his way to Miami.

I have no idea who to credit with this thing, so I’ll just list the two main recruiting services going right now.

247 Sports had the live reaction recorded.

On3’s Pete Nakos reported Miami had the biggest NIL offer on the table, which was around $2 million.

If you’re curious about this part of the equation, NFL power agent Drew Rosenhaus was the one who did the deal for this thing.

“Miami excites me a lot because they have an offensive-line oriented coach in Mario Cristobal,” Cantwell has said in the past. “I like Coach Cristobal a lot. 

“I think Coach Mirabal is a top five O-line coach in the country. Even that could be a little like subjective where in the top five it would be. He does a fantastic job. He does a great developing. They always seem to have the right guys on the offensive line.”

Cantwell, 16, beat out Georgia, Oregon, and Ohio State as the other lead contenders for his services. He checks in at 6-foot-7.5, 325, and was the 2023-24 Gatorade Missouri Boys Track & Field Player of the Year. I guess that’s the sort of award you win when you’re a two-time Missouri Class 5A State Champion in the shot put.
