Brandon McCoy, one of the top players in the class of 2026, is taking an official visit to Alabama this weekend, a source told Rivals.
The 6-foot-4 five-star combo guard out of Sierra Canyon (CA) is ranked as the No. 2 overall player in the country, according to the Rivals Industry Ranking. He’s also visited Duke, Arkansas, and Miami.
McCoy holds an offer from the Crimson Tide, along with schools like USC, Michigan, NC State, Kansas and more.
Scout’s take on Brandon McCoy
McCoy is one of just two prospects in the 2026 cycle that have landed five-star status via Rivals’ Jamie Shaw — who wrote this of the star guard earlier this summer:
“McCoy joined (Tyran) Stokes with USA Basketball this summer, earning their third consecutive gold medal together. McCoy missed a majority of the high school season and all of the spring travel season, making his return with USA Basketball. McCoy played a team-low 9.6 minutes per game with USA Basketball, but the 6-foot-4 guard showed himself to still possibly be the top on-ball defender in the 2026 recruiting cycle.
Playing in July with the Arizona Unity team, McCoy averaged 19.7 points on 55.7 percent shooting and 2.8 STOCKS. McCoy was a terror getting into the paint, scoring 1.093 points per possession. He was quickly able to turn defense into offense, guarding full court and making life for the opposing ball handler uncomfortable. He also consistently put the defense on their heels, collapsing the team and making a play.”
