Texas signed the nation’s best offensive line class in the 2022 cycle. The group consists of seven players, headlined by five stars Kelvin Banks and Devon Campbell.
It is expected that a number of the newcomers on the offensive line will push for playing time early on.
On3 Sports released its 2022 preseason freshman All-American team on Tuesday. Banks was featured as one of the five offensive linemen chosen from around the country.
Kelvin Banks was the jewel of Texas’ splendid offensive line haul in the 2022 cycle. The 6-foot-5, 318-pounder was a summer enrollee, but has quickly assimilated. Banks is reportedly already seeing some reps as the first-team left tackle and could be in line to start on the blindside as early as week one. Banks’ combination of length, flexibility, nimble feet and ready-made size make him one of the prime contenders to make a splash as a true freshman offensive lineman. The Humble (Texas) Summer Creek product was a five-star and ranked as the No. 19 overall prospect and No. 1 offensive tackle in the 2022 On3 Consensus.
Banks is looking the part in fall camp. The future of Texas’ offensive line unit is extremely bright.
