Original_RMC might lose his mind. Robert Morris snagged another big lineman, this time grabbing a commitment from one of the nastiest offensive lines in Pennsylvania.
Archbishop Wood (Pa.) offensive lineman Chris O'Connor committed to Robert Morris today according to head coach Steve Devlin on Twitter. Wood has been in the state title game the last two years and has become a football factory. Over a half dozen Archbishop Wood players went D-I last year as the team won the state title.
This year, it's a smaller class, but no less impressive. And the line has been the hallmark of the team, as it's featured a group that would actually dwarf some college lines.
O'Connor is 6-foot-6, 285 pounds and played guard for Wood. You can view his highlights here. He's played tackle but prefers playing inside as a run blocker. His nickname is alternately "Bigfoot/Sasquatch" because of his size-16 shoes.
O'Connor chose Robert Morris over reported scholarship offers from Lafayette and Lehigh, as well as interest from William & Mary, Coastal Carolina, Monmouth, and Villanova. He is the fourth lineman to commit in this class, and odds are he'll be the last as RMU addresses other areas of need. All of them are at least 6-foot-5 or taller.
