Eric Nahlin/Inside Scoop thinks Kelvin Banks may end up being the top ranked in-state 2022 OL, over his teammate Kam Dewberry
" .... Banks surprised the few paying attention when he gave a verbal commitment to the 'Pokes last September. I was indifferent given his age and where I suspected his profile was headed. Recent clips like the one above and others have reminded college coaches that Kelvin Banks is still out there in need of being recruited.
Banks communicated with Texas for the first time in a long time last week. He also talks to Oklahoma State (of course) and LSU. Banks grew up with Kameron Dewberry, who is “next” at Atascocita after Sam Cosmi and Kenyon Green. The two would like to play together, but Banks acknowledges that may not happen “because we have such different personalities.” Finding a school that fits both may prove difficult. I’m not sure I agree with that but it’s refreshing to not read “we’re a packaged deal! [package emoji, handshake emoji].”
Dewberry has a higher profile than Banks and talks with LSU, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Texas, USC, and Penn State the most. I’ve always felt Texas was in good shape with Dewberry but recruiting is going to start getting serious and become more business-like. "
