Ranskins has great size for an incoming freshman offensive lineman at 6-foot-5 and 295-pounds. It was important for Georgia Tech during the Geoff Collins era to get bigger on both sides of the line and scrimmage and that’s exactly what the Jackets did with this recruiting class.
Rankins was a consensus three-star prospect by the recruiting services. 247Sports rated Rankins with a .8755 overall rating and a top-550 player in the country. He was also ranked as a top-50 offensive tackle and a top-75 player in the Sunshine state.
Perhaps the best news for Rankins is that he’s enrolling early and will be on campus next month.
