3-star IOL Johnathan Cline commits to UCF

Cartersville (Ga.) interior offensive lineman Johnathan Cline announced his commitment Saturday to play college football for UCF.

Cline is the No. 848 overall recruit in the 2023 cycle, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is also the No. 88 interior offensive lineman and No. 85 recruit from the state of Georgia.

“I love the staff at UCF and how they have never forced anything on me,” Cline told On3 in May. “The hospitality stands out a lot. They make it a place that could be great to call home.”

The 2023 Knights recruiting class is ranked 32nd in the 2023 On3 Consensus Team Recruiting Ranking. Altamonte Springs (Fla.) Lake Brantley four-star linebackers and twins Andrew Harris and Michael Harris, as well as Kissimmee (Fla.) Osceola four-star defensive lineman and top-100 recruit John Walker, are the top recruits in the class.
