The four-star offensive tackle prospect took official visits to Tennessee, Penn State and Ohio State, with Columbus being his most recent stop. Ohio State was thought to be his main finalist along with Pitt.
Bookser is rated as the No. 241 prospect in the nation, the No. 25 offensive tackle and the No. 4 recruit in the state of Pennsylvania for the class of 2014.
