Offensive tackle Jean Delance of Mesquite, Texas, revealed his top five schools Wednesday evening via Twitter, a list that includes Alabama, Texas, Michigan, Ohio State and Texas A&M.

The 4-star lineman has received attention from several schools and currently yields over 25 offers. The 6-foot-5, 281-pounder is ranked as the No. 12 offensive tackle and the 16th overall recruit in the state of Texas.

Delance, who was once committed to Oklahoma, excluded Auburn, USC, Florida State and LSU – all schools he included in his May list.
