Four-star offensive tackle Blake Frazier of Austin (TX) Vandegrift High has narrowed his list to five schools– Michigan, Clemson, Florida, LSU, and Texas.

The 6-foot-6, 280 pounder went in-depth on his finalists with On3.

Michigan Wolverines

“Michigan has been a school I’ve rooted for since I first started watching football,” Frazier said. “Obviously with my dad having played there there’s a connection but more than that, the program that Coach Harbaugh has built is amazing and I love the culture there.”

Clemson Tigers

“Clemson was a spot that was just different off rip,” Frazier said. “The family feeling there was unreal and the feeling I got from all the coaches and staff was one that I haven’t forgotten one bit.”

Florida Gators

“My grandma played at Florida so growing up watching some Gator games kinda made for an easy love at first sight when it came to recruiting,” Frazier said. “The Gators have made a huge impact in my recruiting process and I’ve loved getting to build relationships with so many different people from their staff.”

LSU Tigers

“Coach Davis is a huge part of why LSU is up in my Final 5,” Frazier said. “I know everyone says you shouldn’t recruit on coaches but this guy makes it really hard not to. More than that, spending time with some of the players was a ton of fun and I could definitely see myself playing with them in the future.”

Texas Longhorns

“Having grown up in Austin I’ve probably gone to more Longhorn games than any other school,” Frazier said. “The Longhorns are a staple within the city and everyone of my friends loves them and everywhere you go it’s a Hook ‘Em shirt. It’s hard to hate the horns and I definitely have enjoyed the process with them being in it.”

Frazier ranks as the No. 347 player in the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He also tabs in as the No. 25 offensive tackle and the No. 56 player in the state of Texas.

He currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $34K. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets high school and college athletes’ projected annual value (PAV). The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.
