Looking for immediate OT help, Illinois delves into JUCO ranks

Offensive tackle Isaiah Adams is a 3-star prospect and is a native of Canada, but will enroll via way of Garden City, Kansas Community College. He is one of seven offensive linemen in the 2022 recruiting class and will have two years of eligibility. According to his prospect profile, he was recruited by offensive line coach Bart Miller.

Isaiah Adams comes in at 6-foot-6 and weighing 325 pounds. He is most comparable to current offensive lineman Zach Barlev. Both players are agile, well coached, and can play multiple positions along the offensive line. The biggest difference between the two is Adams is more physically developed after spending time at a junior college and will arrive immediately ready to contribute.
