Wisconsin football extended an offer to highly-touted class of 2026 offensive tackle Grayson McKeogh on Monday.
The 6’7”, 275-pound tackle becomes the latest 2026 recruit to join the program’s offer sheet and the first since it offered wide receiver Justin Williams on Feb. 11. He now joins a loaded offensive tackle group in Wisconsin’s 2026 pipeline — a list that includes 24 athletes and 12 consensus four-star recruits.
247Sports composite ranking considers McKeogh the No. 362 overall prospect in the class of 2026, No. 32 offensive tackle and No. 9 recruit from his home state of Pennsylvania. 247Sports, Rivals and On3 all regard him as a four-star recruit.
As of Feb. 24, the Pennsylvania native has received 15 offers from a collection of programs across the nation. That list includes Boston College, Ole Miss, USF, Wake Forest, Michigan State, Pittsburgh, Indiana, Northwestern, Liberty, Penn State, Syracuse, Duke, Missouri and West Virginia.
At La Salle High School, McKeogh also plays varsity baseball as a catcher and basketball as a center. On the gridiron, he helped La Salle to a 10-0 mark as a junior.
Both Rivals and 247Sports have yet to release any forecasts for McKeogh, but On3’s prediction recruiting machine considers Penn State the heavy favorite. The in-state Nittany Lions have accumulated a 56.4% likelihood of landing his commitment.
As a junior in high school, it’s too early to pinpoint a specific landing spot for McKeogh. Penn State may emerge as the clear-cut frontrunner due to the Pennsylvania ties, but the Badgers are as prestigious an offensive line program as any across college football.
Only three-star offensive lineman Benjamin Novak has committed to UW’s class of 2026 as of Feb. 28. McKeogh would overtake Novak for the No. 1 spot in the class if he commits.
