Quotable:
"He is a smart kid. He is a tough kid. He works hard and he wants to be the best. He is true center and one who has his brother to lean on and learn from. I love his intensity. He is a quiet kid, but on the field, he makes a lot of noise.” — Rivals.com analyst Chad Simmons
Scouting report:
• Known for his toughness and physicality.
• Size-wise is well suited to play center and has experience snapping in high school.
• Must make the jump in competition from small private school to the ACC.
2019 projection:
McMahon still has to get stronger and adjust to a whole new level of football, which means he is a likely redshirt, even though NC State is replacing its starter at center.
