Massive 6-7 SMU tackle with blue-chip upside
Evan Goodwin enters SMU as a 2026 freshman offensive lineman with blue-chip pedigree: multiple recruiting services rated him as a four-star prospect, with ESPN listing him at 6-7, 325 pounds and On3 ranking him among the nation’s top offensive tackles in his class[1][2][3]. What makes him intriguing is the frame, length, and tackle projection—exactly the kind of body that can be molded into a difference-maker if the technique and pass-set consistency keep climbing[2][3]. For a team, he looks like a long-term line investment with high upside rather than a finished product, which is usually where the fun starts.
