College football recruiting predictions for every 2021 5-star recruit

• High School: Warwick (Lititz, PA)
• Composite Rankings: No. 14, No. 4 OT

When it comes to height, very few will be able to match Nolan Rucci. The offensive tackle stands at a whopping 6-foot-8 with a huge frame to build around.

The number four offensive tackle in his class and the top recruit in the state of Pennsylvania should be a force to be reckoned with because of his size. Just given the sheer size and athleticism Rucci possesses, it may be prudent to allow him the time to continue to grow into his body to reach his full potential as a superstar bookend.

It also raises the question, will the Rucci Penn State pipeline continue? His father, Todd, played for Penn State and staying home would seem to make the Nittany Lions a strong contender. The Nittany Lions sure hope it does.

Prediction: Penn State

• High School: Robinson Secondary (Fairfax, VA)
• Composite Rankings: No. 13, No. 3 OT

The number three offensive tackle in the 2021 class is Fairfax’s, Tristan Leigh.  At 6-foot-6 and 285 pounds, Leigh still has plenty to fill out and might not be an immediate starter right away in a power five conference.

That’s not a knock on his talent level either. He’s a one-man wrecking crew who is a quick learner and will benefit from his naturally gifted athleticism. Scouts point to run blocking as his strong suit while pass blocking is still a work in progress.

Getting in the right program and refining his skills will allow him to see the field quickly. It’s not clear where he will end up as he hasn’t made a commitment yet. Right now, the experts are leaning toward Clemson.

Prediction: Clemson
