Two classes in a row with an OL that dominated a 5 star DE. We’re going to have a monster OL in a couple of years.dnc said:

Holy shit that was beautiful. And this guy is going to play Center!?

Yeah, he said in an interview that he was playing left tackle and guard because of team need but he's being recruited as a Nick Harris replacement.1to392831weretaken said:Holy shit that was beautiful. And this guy is going to play Center!?
He's about 6'1"-6'2" but uber athletic and quick feet and powerful. He's Nick Harris 2.5 -
Yep. A more powerful Nick Harris seems about right.animate said:

Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei offensive lineman Myles Murao showed why he’s among the nation’s top prospects in Monarchs big opening season win.
Murao broke his leg last October in week nine of the season. He rehabbed hard all off-season, made The Opening Finals and had a strong showing back in July. You could tell he still wasn’t a 100% back to his old form.
He had gained about 30 pounds since his injury so his athleticism and lateral quickness weren’t all the way back but he was still able to perform well because of his superior technique, toughness and smarts.
On Friday, Murao and his teammates took on perennial state power Corona (Calif.) Centennial and the game within the game matchup we hoped to see was the Washington commit going head to head with standout junior defensive end Korey Foreman. Murao will play center for the Huskies but plays left tackle at Mater Dei and showed why he's the state's top offensive line prospect.
While the two didn’t go head to head on every play, they did line up opposite each other a handful of times and Murao got the best of the matchup. Murao looked great all game long and was dominant in the run game and even better in pass protection.
He plays about as physical as any lineman in the region and is very difficult to play against. He plays through the whistle and isn’t just content to block his man, he’s trying to bury him in to the ground on every play.
He looked quicker and more athletic than he did at the The Opening Finals and is primed for a great senior year. The Monarchs are currently rated the No. 1 team in the nation and are led by one of the top offensive lines in the country.

Trigger warning @dnc
Biggins:
On his current ranking and why he isn’t higher
“He's going to play great, no doubt about it, he's a great HS player. Remember, rankings are based on the NFL Draft and his profile- a 300+ lineman who projects as a center, doesn't fit what you see in the 1st or 2nd round of the Draft. His ranking right now reflects being drafted in 3rd-4th round, which is pretty dang good. I think he could move up and I still love the kid, I'm his biggest fan but just not sure he projects as a top of the draft guy. Similar with Ethan Garbers, he'll throw for a million yards this year but we're going off projection more then sheer numbers. Hope that makes some sense.”
On how he is so calm and well spoken off the field but nasty on it.
“Classic kid who can flip a switch. One of the angriest lineman I've seen, doesn't matter the setting and I mean that as a compliment.”
On how it’s dumb that the rankings are based on pro potential for @dnc.
“I've said that exact same thing, lets not skip college and aren't our recruiting team rankings based on who we feel should compete for college playoffs in a few years? So I'm with you, but the counter was using college success is subjective, the NFL Draft is the easiest way to measure if you hit or miss and the reality is, most, not all, but the majority of the great college players will be drafted higher then guys who didn't perform as well in college.”
On why Tate Martell sucks ass.
“I was with Scout at the time Tate came up and we actually had him as a 5-star because our rankings were based on college accomplishment, not pro potential. Size was always a concern with Tate but you have to understand, you can make a case he had the best career of any HS QB ever, he never lost a game against high level competition. It was his class that we started to say, 'lets discount size a bit, there are plenty of NFL QBs in the 6-0 range that are showing they can play and this kid is really special.' Unfortunately for Tate, it hasn't happened for him yet. I know a lot of people who like to take shots at the rankings will say Tate not performing well proves 'stars don't matter' but the guys who have beaten him out- Dwayne Hawkins, Jarren Williams and even throw in Justin Fields, were all rated higher then Tate coming out of HS.”
On why high ranked kids bust.
“It's definitely the off the field stuff. When a five star kid busts, it's rarely if ever something physical. Sometimes it's a player who doesn't really love the game so it when it gets hard, he taps out. Or his work ethic is bad or he lacks toughness, that's a big one and hard to see. I think with lineman, that's where you miss a lot because it's hard to gauge toughness when you can physically overwhelm every kid in HS because you're so much bigger. Then you get to college and get punched in the mouth for the first time by a player as big as you and many have no idea how to react. Then there's factors beyond your control like injuries, talent around you, coaching, scheme fit, etc.” -

Assuming that he can make the transition to snapping and other nuances I wouldn't know about as a former skill position player, he will be starting year one.
That's one fucking game of blocking, what a beast
