Rice’s big-bodied trench prize with rare upside
Marcus Page Jr. is a 2026 offensive tackle from North Forney who signed with Rice after flipping from Baylor, and he brings a rare combo of size, upside, and late-blooming athleticism for an FBS lineman[1][3][11]. In the 2026 recruiting cycle, he was listed around 6-foot-6 and 290-307 pounds and earned a 3-star style industry profile with a national OT ranking in the upper-100s, which signals real Power-4-level interest[6][8]. Rice also highlighted that he was a top-300 Texas prospect and a finalist for the Whataburger Super Team despite only focusing on football late, making him a fascinating long-term developmental fit[11].
