Recruiting Position Rankings - OG


Recommended Posts

With the end of the second recruiting cycle at hand, I wanted to take some time and see which teams have been loading up on talent at each position. Where are the future stars going to come from, and where have people been focusing their efforts? This will be an X-part series depending on how many positions I want to do. Next up: OG

 

A quick note on methodology here. I have a very un-official system of scoring each recruit according to their projected junior year overall. So it takes stars, overall, and potential into account. I ranked all croots at each position and considered the top X players at each position that each school signed to get a holistic picture of which room is the best. So signing only 1 QB in 2 years can still be a top room if he's the #1 QB whereas if you only sign 1 WR in 2 years even if he's a 5 star A overall that won't be the best overall grouping.

 

Lastly, the "#X overall" rankings are position-specific, so #5 overall means the 5th best (probably tied) RB recruit in the Combined 2021 and 2022 classes

 

Again, a lot of these are just fun rankings, many other teams are in the convo and it depends a lot on whether you value having a great #1 option or more depth

 

Without further ado: the offensive guards

 

Honorable mentions:

 

Miami

 

Laurent Gimenez - 4 star, B overall, C potential, #23 overall
Anthony Allen - 4 star, C overall, B- potential, #40 overall
Tim Devers - 4 star, C overall, C potential, #59 overall

 

Florida State

 

Dylan Jackson - 4 star, B overall, B potential, Run Blocking, #5 overall
Steven Webb - 3 star, C overall, A potential, Run Blocking, #48 overall
Enes Holdzkom - 3 star, C overall, A potential, Balanced, #48 overall
Steven Lott - 3 star, C overall, A- potential, Balanced, #68 overall

 

 

5th Place

:tennessee:

Tennessee

 

Similar to OT, Tennessee didn't sign a ton of players, but the ones they did sign are quite good. This should be a very formidable protective shield around Brandon Savage in the future years

 

 

Nicholas Crosby - 4 star, B overall, C+ potential, Pass Blocking, #12 overall
James Hilton - 4 star, B overall, C potential, Pass Blocking, #23 overall
Steven Henry - 4 star, C overall, C potential, Pass Blocking, #59 overall

 

4th Place

:texastech:

Texas Tech

 

Texas Tech went 5 deep, but it's really all about their 2 B overall 4 stars and then a couple of depth guys

 

Jorge Castillo - 4 star, B overall, B- potential, Run Blocking, #9 overall
Grayson Williams - 4 star, B overall, C potential, Balanced, #23 overall
David Lenahan - 3 star, C overall, C+ potential, Run Blocking, #111 overall
Sam Frare - 3 star, C overall, C+ potential, Balanced, #111 overall
Nick Lancaster - 3 star, C overall, C+ potential, Pass Blocking, #111 overall

 

3rd Place

:baylor:

Baylor

 

Baylor walked off with the only 5-star OG in either class, and paired him with an A+ potential futuer star and solid 4 star to make for a great class

 

John Raymond - 5 star, B overall, D+ potential, Pass Blocking, #1 overall
Channing Jones - 3 star, C overall, A+ potential, Pass Blocking, #38 overall
Joey Harper - 4 star, C overall, C+ potential, Run Blocking, #45 overall
John Sturdevant - 3 star, C overall, C potential, Run Blocking, #152 overall

 

 

2nd Place

:bowlinggreen:

Bowling Green

 

Bowling Green managed to take 3 B overall 4-stars these cycles, and has an argument for #1 here as the interior will be incredibly stout these next few years as Bam Lamp already got starting minutes this season.

 

David Flores - 4 star, B overall, C+ potential, Pass Blocking, #12 overall
Frank Berman - 4 star, B overall, C potential, Run Blocking, #23 overall
Bam Lamp - 4 star, B overall, D+ potential, Pass Blocking, #34 overall
Stefan Gordon - 3 star, C overall, B potential, Run Blocking, #82 overall
Andrew Nieve - 3 star, C overall, C+ potential, Balanced, #111 Overall

 

1st Place

:unlv:

UNLV

 

In first place, UNLV had some amazing signings with 3 future stars and an above average back-up as well. Notably they are recruiting scheme specific guys as well, as all 4 players are run blockers.

 

David Lowery - 4 star, B overall, C+ potential, Run Blocking, #12 Overall
Peter Ahlstrom - 4 star, B overall, C potential, Run Blocking, #23 Overall
Arrion Lowry - 4 star, B overall, C- potential, Run Blocking, #33 overall
Corey Burdi - 3 star, C overall, B- potential, Run Blocking, #97 overall
