Behind The Rankings – 2024 OL

<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The 2024 Offensive Line class in the state of Texas is absolutely loaded from top to bottom. There is undeniable talent in almost every city in the state. Today we are going to highlight and break down the top 5 ranked Offensive Linemen in the initial Prepredzone class of 2024 rankings. I have had the chance to see these prospects in action over the summer on the camp circuit and they all have had very strong showings and haven’t disappointed thus far.</span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">1, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="146600" first="Nate" last="Kibble"]</strong> <strong>- Atascocita High school - Houston, Texas - 6’3, 290 lbs </strong></span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Nate</strong> checks in as the top-rated offensive lineman in the 2024 Prepredzone rankings. He is a big lean, physical, strong, and nasty prospect that hasn’t disappointed this summer. He comes from the powerhouse Atascocita High which has produced a bevy of high major offensive line athletes. He is a physically sound player that in my opinion can play all five positions and has a chance to make a huge splash at the next level. He recently attended the big man camp Texas A &amp; M where he shined and earned a scholarship offer. </span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">2, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="277688" first="Max" last="Anderson"]</strong> <strong>- Reedy High School - Frisco Texas - 6’5, 280 lbs </strong></span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Max</strong> is a player that you love watching on tape because of how fundamentally sound he is and how he consistently strains to finish and tries to pancake his defender every chance he gets. </span><span class="s1">What sticks out the most to me on film about him is how strong and patient he is at the point of off attack.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>He did a good job not opening his shoulders or hips while taking his pass sets on tape. Attached below is his film from the season.</span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1"><a href="https://twitter.com/maxanders0n1/status/1457779966087614476?s=21&amp;t=HxutYIGD1bQvy-OrRLtqWA">https://twitter.com/maxanders0n1/status/1457779966087614476?s=21&amp;t=HxutYIGD1bQvy-OrRLtqWA</a></span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">As you can see Max has earned his ranking and will be interesting to watch as he continues to develop and pick up offers. </span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">3, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="276094" first="Samiuela" last="Liu"]</strong> <strong>- Parish Episcopal High school - Dallas, Texas - 6’3, 300 lbs</strong> </span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Sam</strong> is a stout 6’3, 300 lbs prospect out of Parish Episcopal. </span><span class="s1">He has had a huge summer of great camp performances and recently picked up scholarship offers from a multitude of teams including SMU. He started his summer off by snagging the MVP honors at the Prepredzone stock-up showcase. </span><span class="s1">He was stellar on the day and has continued to follow up with strong performances on the camp circuit. He will be a vital piece for his team who hopes to repeat this year as state champions. Recap is attached below. </span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1"><a href="https://twitter.com/logantillman/status/1485372871996231684?s=21&amp;t=anuXX9YU3LRJIEMvbdjswA">https://twitter.com/logantillman/status/1485372871996231684?s=21&amp;t=anuXX9YU3LRJIEMvbdjswA</a></span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">4, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="147463" first="Gibson" last="Pyle"] - Klein Cain High School - Klein Cain, Texas - 6’5, 285 lbs </strong></span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Gibson</strong> is a 6’5 285 pound prospect that debuts as the 4th ranked lineman in the 2024 class. He has camped all over the country and recently stopped through Colorado’s big man camp where he had a great showing. He’s a strong and technically sound player that has heavy hands and does a good job of striking to keep defenders off of his chest. Attached are some of the reps from his performance at the University of Colorado.</span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1"><a href="https://twitter.com/pylegibson/status/1537958751596032002?s=21&amp;t=29NJ_XK11cRYg_cWK2ulog">https://twitter.com/pylegibson/status/1537958751596032002?s=21&amp;t=29NJ_XK11cRYg_cWK2ulog</a></span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">5, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="273002" first="Jack" last="Tanner"]</strong> <strong>- Flower Mound Marcus High School - Dallas, Texas - 6’6, 270 lbs</strong></span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">Coming in as the 5th ranked Offensive linemen in Texas is Tackle <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="273002" first="Jack" last="Tanner"]</strong> out of Marcus High school. Jack is a very intriguing and studious prospect that measures in at 6’6, weighs<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>270 lbs and holds a 5.0/4.0 GPA. He has elite length, good patience, and violent hands in pass protection. After his camp performance he picked up a scholarship offer from UNT and I expect more to come as he progresses throughout the summer. Attached below are some of his training reels <a href="https://twitter.com/logantillman/status/1532019789706805253?s=21&amp;t=29NJ_XK11cRYg_cWK2ulog">https://twitter.com/logantillman/status/1532019789706805253?s=21&amp;t=29NJ_XK11cRYg_cWK2ulog</a></span></p>
