Summary

Kyler Harden, a 6-foot-5, 260-pound offensive lineman from O'Dea High School, is being recognized as a top prospect in the 2028 recruiting class. He is currently ranked as the No. 197 overall prospect and No. 11 interior offensive lineman by 247Sports Composite. Harden has 11 offers, including from Auburn, California, Oregon, Penn State, and UCLA.
