has bulked up quite a bit since his sophomore season, and while he didn’t play a whole lot during his sophomore season, Stay is a major breakout candidate for the Thunder entering 2026. Seeing most of his reps at Right Guard while also taking some at Right Tackle, Stay is flexible on the line, proving to be a solid run-blocker who can get low, scan the field for moving targets quickly, and make a strong down-block to create a lane for his RB. Stay plays with a wide base and good balance, exploding with his first step to make first contact with the defender. Whether at Guard or Tackle, Stay should become a mainstay for Zimmerman’s O-line entering his junior season with the potential to further add to his status as one of the fastest rising prospects to watch out for this season.
