These are some guys you are definitely going to want to get familiar with. The offensive linemen in Texas are advanced. Let’s check them out.
Jonte Newman Jonte Newman 6'5" | 280 lbs | OL Bridgeland | 2025 State TX , OL, Cypress, 2025
Newman is a big boy who knows how to move. He holds his own in the trenches. There won’t be many guys who can stop him from doing what he needs to do to protect his skilled players. Newman has a big body. He already looks like a college left tackle. I think that he could use some development with his feet work. He also could be in better shape. I do think he will be a highly sought-after offensive lineman.
Frederick Johnson, OL/DL, Wylie, 2025
Johnson is very mean in the trenches. He has a nice way of shooting his hands then using a spin move. He does not give up ground against the run. Johnson knows how to be a force in any way possible. This young man is a solid player in the trenches. I would love to see how he continues to grow. He has a nice motor with good skills. Let’s keep an eye on this guy.
Samiuela Liu, OL, 2024, Parish Episcopal
Liu is a pancake machine. He gets guys out of the way and down to the ground. He is going to be a guy that has a chance at power five football on the next level. Liu is definitely a division one prospect. I love the way he is patient with defenders. He does a great job in the running game and passing game. This young man is very polished.
Lucas Barrientes Lucas Barrientes 6'3" | 280 lbs | OL Midland Legacy | 2024 State TX , OL, Midland Legacy, 2024
Barrientes is a big boy that takes pride in protecting his quarterback. You don’t have a quarterback with great numbers without a nice offensive line. He is a guy that will be a left tackle on the next level. He has long arms and a very big frame. Barrientes knows how to use his size to his advantage. He makes it very hard for defensive lineman.
