UCF has rounded out its 2026 recruiting class with the signing of two talented three-star prospects on National Signing Day. The Knights added defensive tackle Isaiah McNish and receiver Jordan Nunuha to their roster, bringing their total number of signees to 16 for the class.

McNish, a 6-foot-4, 230-pounder from Wekiva High, had originally committed to UCF in June before de-committing in October. He garnered interest from other schools such as Georgia Tech, Michigan State, and Missouri before ultimately reaffirming his commitment to the Knights.

Hailing from Apopka, McNish is ranked as the 128th best player in the state and the 126th best defensive lineman in the nation, according to 247Sports composite rankings.

Meanwhile, Nunuha, a 6-3, 195-pound receiver from St. Louis High School in Honolulu, is the latest addition to a growing number of players from Hawaii on the UCF roster. He joins the likes of quarterbacks McKenzie Milton and Dillon Gabriel, as well as offensive lineman Lokahi Pauole.

Head coach Scott Frost, who returned to UCF in 2025, expressed his excitement about the Knights’ latest recruiting class during the early signing period in December, stating that high school recruits are crucial in building a strong foundation for the team.

With the addition of McNish and Nunuha, UCF’s 2026 class is ranked No. 65 nationally by 247Sports.

Looking ahead, the Knights are eager to see how these new signees will contribute to the team and continue to build on their success on the field. Stay tuned for more updates on UCF football by following us on X, or Instagram @sportsclub0611.  GO KNIGHTS!
