2027 4-Star SG Mekhi Robertson Recruiting Update: Momentum Building With Five Programs Pushing Hard
One of the biggest names in the 2027 backcourt market right now is Mekhi Robertson, a 4-star shooting guard currently at SoCal Academy. Robertson checks in around 6’4”, 180 pounds, and has continued to trend upward as a long, confident perimeter scorer with real shot-making gravity.
The quick snapshot
Most recently, the pace of his recruitment has picked up with new high-major attention, including a West Virginia offer in late January.
The schools pressing the most right now
Per the current pulse of his recruitment, Mississippi State, West Virginia, Oklahoma State, Villanova, and NC State are the programs applying consistent pressure and staying most active in the conversation.
NC State: fresh offer, early momentum
NC State is one of the newer major players here, extending Robertson an offer on Jan. 12 (he announced it publicly the next day).
The Wolfpack getting in early matters, especially in a guard-heavy cycle, because it gives them time to build a real relationship before his visit calendar fills up.
West Virginia: late-January offer, trending interest
West Virginia offered Robertson in late January as their staff continues to prioritize high-upside perimeter talent. The offer adds another serious high-major option and signals how much Robertson’s stock has risen over the past year.
Villanova: high-level interest that’s been real for a while
Villanova’s involvement isn’t new, Robertson visited for “Hoops Mania” and picked up the Villanova offer in September 2024, an early signal that a national brand sees him as a legitimate long-term target.
Mississippi State: SEC traction and a clear lane
Robertson is listed among Mississippi State’s 2027 offer targets, and the Bulldogs have been one of the more consistent programs connected to him as his national profile climbs.
Oklahoma State: another program staying involved
Oklahoma State is also on the verified offer trail and continues to be mentioned as one of the programs most active around Robertson.
Why Robertson is trending with high-major staffs
At 6’4” with a true scoring-guard build, Robertson’s appeal is simple: he projects as a modern perimeter piece, someone who can space the floor, create separation, and score at multiple levels while continuing to grow into his body.
That combination (size + shot-making + upward trajectory) is what gets staffs to prioritize you early.
Bottom line
Mekhi Robertson’s recruitment is in a clear “uptrend phase,” and the group most active right now. Mississippi State, West Virginia, Oklahoma State, Villanova, and NC State, reflects how serious the high-major market is about him. With offers stacking and more attention arriving quickly, the next few months should be about visits, fit, and separating contenders from the pack.
