Better Know a Freshman: Kimo Makaneole

Even the best recruiters have misses from time to time. Although Ed Orgeron has done a mostly good job at stacking the roster, the 2021 class was a huge miss at offensive line with just two players signed Garett Dellinger and the focus of today’s post Kimo Makaneole.

Coming out of Niceville, FL Makaneole was a three-star prospect, No. 441 overall and ranked as the 31st interior lineman in the country according to 247. Although his rating does not compare to others in the class, he had offers from Florida State, Arizona State, Texas A&M and others.
