Almost a year ago, Notre Dame football’s newest commit Grayson McKeogh posted a video on social media showing his impressive athleticism.
The 6-foot, 8-inch and 275-pound offensive tackle committed to the Irish on Wednesday afternoon, joining four others in what could be one of the nation’s best collection of 2026 offensive lineman. While McKeogh isn’t the highest rated, he might have the highest ceiling.
As a former high school scout, anytime I looked at an offensive lineman, especially a tackle, it was all about frame and athleticism, and McKeogh has checked off all of those boxes. He reminds me a lot of former Notre Dame star Joe Alt, the size of both of them being almost exactly the same, and the fact that recruiting sites had them both underrated.
The fact that McKeogh plays basketball as well is a big plus, as you can’t just be a big body on the court, you have to be able to move well laterally. Those skills translate over to the football field, which is another reason why I believe his ceiling is very high.
It’s an impressive feat for any human that large to be able to pull off a backflip, but McKeogh does it with relative ease. There is no doubt in my mind that Notre Dame got a very good one on Wednesday, as you can see his impressive athletic feat below.
