The Eagles' recruiting staff wasted no time after BC's season-finale triumph over Syracuse on Saturday, picking up their second '26 football commit of the week.

Following Boston College football’s 34-12 win at the JMA Wireless Dome in Syracuse, N.Y., over the Orange on Saturday, head coach Bill O’Brien claimed that the offseason recruiting grind would ramp up right after he landed back in Boston, Mass.

He was not lying.

On Sunday afternoon, the Eagles received a verbal commitment from three-star (247Sports, Rivals) defensive tackle Cameron McGee out of Loganville, Ga. McGee announced the decision on his Instagram, posting a series of photos, including some with his mother, in the Eagles’ maroon-and-gold, New-Balance-sponsored uniforms.

“I’m home,” McGee wrote.

McGee is the second player BC landed for its 2026 recruiting class this week—on Friday, a day before the Eagles’ season finale, the program added three-star quarterback Anthony Coellner (Carmel, Ind.).

McGee was originally committed to Arkansas but reopened his recruitment on Oct. 4. The 6-foot-3, 310-pound DT fielded dozens of high-profile offers from the likes of SEC and Big Ten powerhouses such as Alabama, Georgia, LSU, Auburn and Michigan, among others.

McGee is a pure trench dominator on the nose of the defensive line. For a player of his size, McGee’s ability to shed blocks and disrupt the run game at the line of scrimmage stands out.

The Grayson High School product is the sixth defensive lineman in BC’s 2026 recruiting class, joining Mac Fitzgerald, Mason Leak, Dominic Funke, Gavin Neil and Jackson Carlisle.
