California 2007 Final Rankings: OLs

A deep and talented group of offensive lineman head the California rankings in the class of 2007...

It’s fitting that in a strong year for offensive lineman in the Golden State that the Golden Bears have put together one of the best line classes in the country, with five commits. They have at least one of the top two at each position and cleaned house at guard, getting three of the top four. Coleman and DeMartinis are the class of the lineman in SoCal this year with Summers-Gavin and Dever the top in NorCal and Cheadle being Central California’s top-rated prospect.
