The Washington Huskies have put themselves firmly in the mix for some of the top offensive linemen in the West in the 2027 class.
Among the prospects at the top of the board for position coach Michael Switzer is four-star Lincoln Mageo, who is ranked as the nation's No. 360 overall prospect and No. 17 interior offensive lineman by the 247Sports Composite, but the road may have just gotten tougher to secure his commitment. On Tuesday, Rivals' Ethan McDowell logged a crystal ball prediction for the Michigan Wolverines to come away with Mageo's pledge when he announces his commitment on July 11.
Mageo is set to choose from a top seven of Arizona, Michigan, Ohio State, Texas, UCLA, and Utah, alongside UW. He's already taken official visits to check out the Wildcats and Utes, and has trips lined up to see the Wolverines on June 5 and Longhorns on June 12 before he finishes things out with the Huskies on June 19.
As the Huskies look to build out their depth along the interior of the offensive line, Mageo is a great fit for the offensive scheme that Jedd Fisch and Switzer have installed on Montlake.
"He moves well for his 280-pound frame and consistently executes combo blocks and makes contact with second-level defenders from either spot," Huskies Wire's Alex Katson wrote in an evaluation of Mageo. "Down the field, Mageo continues to look for work, often sealing off defenders, then turning to remove another player from the play rather than staying latched to his man longer than necessary."
