Ian Mayes is a rising Tulsa interior OL with early starting experience and run-game value
Mayes entered 2026 as a sophomore after logging seven games and four starts in 2025, and Tulsa’s offense was measurably better when he was on the field: the Golden Hurricane averaged 175.5 rushing yards per game, a 25-yard jump from 2024, while he helped pave the way for a 1,000-yard rusher. At 6-3, 300, he profiles as a sturdy interior blocker with strong pass-protection traits and high-end functional strength, plus a background as a decorated, three-star Texas prep lineman and track athlete. He looks like a solid fit for teams valuing power, maturity, and developmental upside.[1][4]
