out of Philip Barbour is always a consistent top performer at any camp we see him at and that was the case again at the Stock Up Showcase. Walking through the door at a legit 6’6 320 will instantly put him near the top of any OL group in a camp setting especially given he’s also athletic for his size. You’ll find very few offensive linemen in West Virginia on a yearly basis that have that combination of traits and that put him among the Top 10 OL in the state for the 2025 class in our final rankings update. McGee’s experience and ability earned him the OL MVP at the camp after a strong showing throughout the morning. He bends well for his size and has good feet to pair with it. His ceiling is very high as an OL prospect with room to grow developmentally and a frame that you can mold into a high-level player at the next level.
2025 uncommitted Philip Barbour OL @_JohnMcGee_ had a nice day and is consistent every time we see him. 6’6 320 and athletic with a high ceiling. #wvprepfb pic.twitter.com/iQg5to3gTH

continues to progress since we first saw him before his junior year and is coming into his own as a senior for the Colts. He’s accumulated plenty of D2 opportunities to date and is now working for some possible D1 attention with a strong senior year.
McGee has done a nice job growing into his big 6’5 frame which has taken his game to the next level. Even being a large athlete, McGee has quality athleticism for his size and moves well for his size. He’s sustaining and finishing blocks well this season and is playing with more of an edge.

who has seen his stock rise over the off-season. The 6’6 300 300-pounder now holds 5 college offers heading into his senior season with the potential to earn some D1 looks this fall. He’s athletic for his size and a multi-sport athlete who also competes as a swimmer and thrower on the track & field team. His combination of size and athleticism makes him a sought-after prospect who has yet to come close to his potential ceiling as a player. He’ll thrive in a college strength & conditioning program and will take his game to the next level the more his body develops into his big frame.
McGee is one big ball of moldable clay who can develop into a top-flight college player in the future and one of the top prospects in the 2025 class.

. Big John is a towering 6’6 280 and came in as the #5 ranked offensive lineman in our 2025 rankings update. Clearly, he has the size to be a high-level OL prospect and that will get him some D1 looks alone. McGee is also an extremely rare case of being an offensive lineman and swimmer on the swimming team and was a state qualifier for swimming and thrower on the track & field team. At that size, you have to be athletic to be a swimmer and a good one too. I got to see him in person during the camp season and the size is definitely legit. McGee is still raw right now as an offensive lineman but with still two more years of development he has plenty of time to keep developing and growing into the position. He has good feet and moves well for a player his size and could still easily add 30-40 pounds to his big frame.
