Illinois Football: Illini add Blaise Sparks to a growing offensive line

Blaise Sparks announced on Twitter that he has decided to commit to the University of Illinois. This is a huge commitment for the Illini in size of the player and on the depth chart as well.

Sparks is a 6-foot-7, 301-pound offensive tackle from North Fort Myers High School in North Fort Myers, Florida. He is rated as a three-star recruit who is the No. 2011 player in the class of 2020 and the No. 157 offensive tackle in the nation. He is also the No. 221 player in the state of Florida.

For being ranked that low in the class of 2020, Sparks had some solid recruiting offers.
