On signing day, Stanford picked up a commitment from 2023 offensive tackle Allen Thomason out of Pulaski Academy in Little Rock, Arkansas. Thomason commits to the Cardinal as a PWO (Preferred Walk On). Thomason took an official visit to Stanford back in September and was among those who took a second official visit this past weekend. Thomason held offers from Air Force, Army, Austin Peay, Brown, Dartmouth, Memphis, and Pennsylvania, but ended up choosing Stanford instead.
Offensive line is an area where Stanford needs all the help they can get and at 6’5”, 275 pounds, Thomason has good size for an offensive tackle. So, just from a physical tools standpoint, he’s got some upside. It’ll be interesting to see how he develops under new offensive line coach Klayton Adams.
