Red Wolves land three-star offensive tackle LaMichael Nagy as first recruit
By Olivia Scott | Jonesboro Newsletter

Three-star offensive tackle LaMichael Nagy has closed his recruitment and verbally committed to the Arkansas State Red Wolves, becoming the first recruit for the 2026 recruiting class to head coach Butch Jones. Nagy chooses the Red Wolves over Northern Illinois and Louisiana Tech.

Nagy, standing at 6-foot-4 and 315 pounds, hails from Centerton, Arkansas and is ranked as the fifth best prospect in the state as well as the 32nd best offensive tackle in the country. Adding Nagy so early in the football season is a huge get for the Red Wolves.

He is considered a well-rounded tackle who is equally exceptional in the pass game as he is in the run game. His ability to combo-block and set the edge will help him in his ability to get on the field early for the Red Wolves next season.

Nagy was slated to visit Jonesboro in Week 6 for their game against Texas State but decided to close up shop early.

The team hopes to combo him with fellow three-star offensive tackle David Coco out of Kansas City, MO. He is projected to end up with Arkansas State, who are fighting with Bowling Green and Northern Illinois for the 6-foot-5, 277 lbs tackle's services.

Personally shocked at snagging him so early on. I thought it was going to be a bar fight. The way these transfers are looking
