McCoy is listed at 6-foot-5 and is a member of the Class of 2026. He played in this week’s McDonald’s All-American Game. The 247Sports composite ranks him No. 14 overall and No. 3 at his position.

Michigan and Arizona were among his many offers. His final four finalists were Michigan, Miami, Alabama and Arkansas.
