UCLA continued to fill out the 2025 recruiting class this week, adding to their future offensive line in a big way. The Bruins picked up a commitment from Rocklin, California, offensive tackle Garrison Blank.
Blank, who stands at 6′ 7″ and just over 300 lbs, is a massive presence on the offensive line. With great run-blocking ability and study pass-protection on the left side of the offensive line, Blank offers left or swing tackle capability.
Already nearly NFL-sized, Blank’s build gives him immediate upside at the next level. With the Bruins moving to the BIG 10, where run-first, power football thrives, having an offensive tackle with Blank’s size is an asset for the Bruins.

The Bruins thrived on their running game in 2024 while leaning on their defense. Under new offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy, while changes to the offense will be made, it is unlikely they go away from what worked so well. Adding Blank to their commitments helps to shape the offense going forward and provide a potential starter at the position.
