Royce Baucom brings SEC-size tackle potential to Chattanooga’s 2026 O-line mix
In the 2026 season, Royce Baucom is a junior offensive lineman at Chattanooga listed at 6-foot-4 and 281 pounds, and the Mocs have him in the tackle conversation after bringing him in as a spring transfer from Arkansas State.[1][4][15] He has no college game stats yet, which means the evaluation hinges on projection: size, length, and fresh-transfer upside rather than a stat sheet, and Chattanooga’s staff appears to view him as part of a deeper, more stable front.[4][15] If you want a developmental tackle with a three-years-eligibility runway and clear roster-fit value, he’s worth a look; if you need proven snaps, he’s still an untested bet.[4][15]
