5-Star OT Myles Hinton Commits to Stanford over Michigan, Alabama, More

Stanford landed a potential cornerstone offensive lineman Wednesday, as offensive tackle Myles Hinton committed to the school.

He announced as much on his Twitter page:

According to 247Sports, Hinton is a 5-star prospect who ranks as the No. 12 overall player, No. 2 offensive tackle and No. 2 player from the state of Georgia in the 2020 class.

The Norcross, Georgia, native was a highly sought-after commodity on the recruiting trail, as the likes of Michigan, Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State and Oklahoma made him scholarship offers.

Michigan seemingly had a leg up on the competition since his brother, Chris Hinton, committed to play under head coach Jim Harbaugh for the Wolverines, but the Wolverines were unable to hold off the Cardinal.
