Illinois Football: Illini extend offer to 2022 TE Trent McGaughey

On Monday night, Trent McGaughey announced on Twitter that he had received an offer from the University of Illinois. This is a big offer by the Illini considering the talent this kid brings to the table.

McGaughey is a 6-foot-3, 215-pound tight end from Shadow Creek High School in Pearland, Texas. He isn’t rated or ranked by the recruiting sites yet because the class of 2022 is a little ways away, but he does have a myriad of scholarship offers already under his belt.

In addition to the offer from the Illini, McGaughey also has offers from teams like LSU, Auburn and Houston.
