Name: J.R. Hensley

Height: 6-5

Weight: 312

School: Sante Fe

Rating: Three-star (Rivals), Two-star (247)

Right off the bat, Hensley has good size and height for an OT. Even with his size, he can shoot off the line and get his hands on a defender with relative quickness. Watching his tape, he has a good first step in run blocking, getting ahold of defenders and driving his legs off the line. One area of improvement to look toward during his time at UH is his lateral movement, especially in pass protection. He has the size and strength to be involved in the rotation at OT, but his technique needs work to compete for a starting spot among the front five at UH.
