Online career
Meagher began posting Madden NFL videos to YouTube as a high school junior in 2015. His early videos featured the Madden Ultimate Team (MUT) deck-building gamemode. He later changed his focus to Madden NFL gameplay during his sophomore year of college. His videos gained popularity for showcasing his unfiltered and animated personality, which sometimes got them demonetized. Episodes in his trademark "Wheel of MUT" series included random spins to determine which players to add to his team.
Meagher's channel reached 1 million subscribers in early 2019. Following the release of Madden NFL 20, his average viewership multiplied and he had 1.5 million subscribers by the start of 2020. He later branched into the EA Sports College Football series. Outside of video games, he has made vlogs about his life and sports events. He ran a second channel, MMG Live, from 2021 to 2024. He started a third channel, Meags, in 2022.
