Stanford landed its highest ranked commitment since 2012 on Wednesday when 2020 offensive lineman Myles Hinton committed to the Cardinal.
Hinton is the No. 8-ranked prospect overall, supplanting offensive lineman Andrus Peat, ranked No. 9 in 2012, as the highest ranked commit for the program in the past nine recruiting classes.
"The deciding factor was just a feeling," Hinton said. "I went to visit this past fall and I felt like I needed to be there."
Hinton is the son of former All-Pro offensive lineman Chris Hinton, and the younger brother of Chris Hinton Jr.
