Top 5 Uncommitted Class of 2026 Offensive Linemen
OL Claude Mpouma Chicago Mount Carmel 6-foot-8, 305 pounds 2026- Claude is a unicorn here...a kid with incredible physical tools who has played just one season of organized football so far. His combination of athleticism, size, length and upside is incredibly high and is worth the risk from literally every Power 4 program in the nation.
OL Gene Riordan Hinsdale Central 6-foot-5, 280 pounds 2026- Impressive player and athlete here. Riordan moves well, has good feet and balance along with impressive hand usage. Can play literally anywhere on the offensive line at the next level. I also love his motor and has enough of a chip on his shoulders in game to take on all comers. Will continue to add more strength and weight at the next level.
OL Tony Balanganayi Palatine 6-foot-4, 260 pounds 2026 Big, strong interior OL who is quick and athletic and still has room to add more good weight and strength over the next year plus. Showtime Tony can and will play on both sides of the line in high school and early on I felt he was equally effective on either side of the football.
OL Owen Fors Barrington 6-foot-4, 290 pounds 2026 - Fors is a fluid runner and athlete who is also a top level heavy hitting and versatile offensive linemen who can play as well anywhere on the offensive line. His oversized frame and length will allow hoim to add much more good weight and strength in college. Fors will be able to easily get to say the 300 pound range in college and still retain his speed and quickness. Often is finding himself causing havoc at the second level blockss.
OL Ryan Myers Batavia 6-foot-5, 290 pounds 2026 Locked down blocker and a leader on one of the better high school programs in Illinois. Has impressive strength and motor and his spring/summer will be big for Myers. If Myers can show better feet and quickness this spring and summer... I can see more Power 4 schools getting involved. Lots to like here in Ryan Myers.
Next 5 Uncommitted Class of 2026 Offensive Linemen
OL Tommy Fraumann Loyola 6-foot-8, 250 pounds 2026- Has OT height and length and is still very much a work in progress on a few levels.
OL Myles Batesky Libertyville 6-foot-4, 275 pounds 2026- Very impressive inside mauler and his game really stood out in person in 2024. Good quickness/first few steps and plays and works like he wants to be great,
OL Costa Kampas York 6-foot-5, 280 pounds 2026- The physical tools are there and his upside is for real. Kampas each season has greatly improved his overall fundamentals and technique and he continues to just get better an better.
OL Lamont Miller Mount Carmel 6-foot-4, 290 pounds 2026- Positionally he's a bit of a tweener in my ooinion but the one thing no one can deny is that Lamont Miller is an ass kicker. Miller plays hard and plays physical at all times and has enough footwork and quickness to play anywhere on the line.
OL/DL Levi Mallette Chicago Hope 6-foot-2, 285 pounds 2026- Has the look and feel of a OC type at the higher level. Mallette has been a varsity strarter since his freshman season, plays like an experienced vet and his continued development over the past year or so has been impressive. Mallette has has good feet and quickness along with possessing a strong lower body strength and base.
