Notre Dame had a strong offensive line during the past season, and it’s making an effort to replenish that unit. Its latest to do so comes in the form of offensive tackle Tyler Booker, a junior at IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida. Booker weighs in at 6-foot-5, 315 pounds, which could easily fill the void left by Tommy Kraemer in a couple of years.

Rivals believes Florida is the odds-on favorite to land the hometown product. Still, seemingly everyone is interested in Booker as he now has received offers from 32 of the 33 schools that have expressed interest. Among the more prominent programs expressing real interest are Georgia, Penn State, Texas, Alabama, Miami, Ohio State and LSU. The only certain thing is that plenty of playing time will await whichever school he chooses.
Booker also is the nephew of former Pittsburgh Steelers offensive tackle Ulish Booker, so it’s almost a given that he has playing prospects beyond college. That’s why everyone wants to land him so badly.
