One of the nation's top offensive linemen has cut down his list of suitors.

This week, Reedy (Texas) star Max Anderson, the nation's No. 8 offensive tackle, announced his top 12: Alabama, Arkansas, Baylor, Florida, LSU, Michigan, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Ole Miss, Oregon, Penn State and Tennessee:

The 6-foot-5, 300-pound lineman is still early in the process, but a possible favorite has emerged.

Anderson is coming off a late January visit to the University of Oklahoma, where he connected with his brother, Oklahoma offensive lineman and former four-star prospect Nate Anderson.

While Anderson hasn't actually named a favorite, the opportunity to play alongside his brother at the collegiate level may loom large later in the process.

It's certainly something to monitor. 

So far in the 2024 recruiting cycle only one of the nation's top 12 offensive tackles has come off the board.

Woodland (South Carolina) star Kam Pringle, the nation's No. 1 offensive tackle, committed to the South Carolina Gamecocks last month.
