Miami’s five-star OT with rare size, polish, and instant-impact upside
Jackson Cantwell entered 2026 as the nation’s top-ranked offensive tackle prospect and a five-star centerpiece for Miami’s class, bringing a massive 6-foot-8, 315-plus frame, elite athleticism for his size, and the kind of developmental fit Mario Cristobal covets. He’s widely praised for his agility, length, and upside, plus a competitive profile boosted by his high-level track-and-field background. The appeal is simple: he looks like a potential anchor left tackle, and if Miami wants a future tone-setter in the trenches, this is the kind of blue-chip bet that can pay off big.
