Where will 5-star offensive tackle Jackson Cantwell end up playing his college ball? That's what plenty of people are waiting to find out soon. Cantwell is ranked five stars, the No. 1 offensive tackle in the country and the No. 1 prospect overall for 2026 per the 247Sports Composite.

Later this year, he'll be taking official visits to each of his six finalists. Before that, though, Cantwell has three big-time unofficial visits on the way. On Wednesday, he announced that he'll be taking March trips to Miami, Ohio State and Michigan, in that order:

It's time for Mario Cristobal, Ryan Day and Sherrone Moore to roll out the red carpet for this kid. Cantwell is the textbook definition of an elite prospect. He's got a bright future ahead of him, which is why so many schools are battling it out for his commitment.

The massive target is in no rush to make a decision, but his upcoming visits will give him a great idea of which place he might end up calling home for the next 4-5 years. Miami will get the first unofficial visit for spring ball, so the pressure is on for Cristobal to set the bar quite high.
