The last offensive lineman that Alabama was able to land from Illinois was 2023 four-star offensive lineman Miles McVay. Now, it appears that the Tide are in pursuit of another offensive lineman from the Prairie State. Following a Junior Day visit, Alabama offered 2024 offensive tackle, Marques Easley.
Easley plays for Kankakee High School in Kankakee, Illinois. He is listed at 6-foot-7, 300 pounds on 247Sports. With that size, the Alabama coaching staff is likely looking to play him at tackle.
At this time, Alabama has no offensive linemen committed in the 2024 recruiting class. It will be interesting to see if Easley jumps on board in the future.
