HERE'S A LOOK at the Top 10 offensive linemen for the 2015 recruiting cycle.
At the top of the list is Summerville guard Zack Bailey. Bailey (6-5, 300) is athletic and physical and is able to cut off explosive defensive tackles; he's strong on angle blocks and pulls well, and is good at short-set on pass protection. He has offers from most of the SEC and ACC schools.
Boiling Springs tackle Noah Green is at the No. 2 spot. He's athletic and is one of the top pass-blocking linemen in the state. He's developing his run-blocking skills. He was the top lineman at last year's All-State Football Combine and is committed to Clemson.
No. 3 is Gaffney's T.J. Haney, who has been on our watch list since his freshman year. Haney (6-6, 320) is a strong pass-blocking tackle with good feet. He's quick in his set-up and gets good separation with his hands. He has several FBS offers as well as several FCS offers.
No. 4 is Blake Durant (6-5, 320) of Laurence Manning Academy. He's one of the biggest guys in SCISA and he has a skills set matching those of our top players at this position. He's athletic and performed well at the recent SPARQ combine for Nike. He has a pair of FCS offers.
No. 5 is Victor Johnson of North Augusta. Johnson (6-5, 265) is proficient as a pass blocker, with quick feet and excellent use of his hands; he's physical. He has a pair of FCS offers.
No. 6: Hudson Little (6-3, 279) Bishop England: Undersized but physical and skilled.
No. 7: Stephen Haralambis (6-3, 270), Chapin: Will be recruited as DL, as well.
No. 8: Zach Evans (6-2, 279), South Florence: Undersized; could move to guard at FCS or DII.
No. 9: Alex Taylor (6-8, 280) Berkeley: Second year player still developing; huge upside.
No. 10: Ethan Hardin (6-4, 280), Boiling Springs: Solid pass blocker; DII caliber player.
