The Georgia Bulldogs have made Samson Okunlola’s list of top schools. Okunlola is a five-star offensive tackle recruit in the class of 2023.
Samson Okunlola is a rising senior at Thayer Academy in Brockton, Massachusetts. Does he name sound familiar? Samson is brothers with Samuel Okunlola, a former three-star class of 2022 defensive end prospect, plays college football for the Pittsburgh Panthers.
Samson Okunlola is one of the elite talents along the offensive line in the class of 2023. The younger Okunlola is ranked as the No. 33 recruit in the country. The 6-foot-5, 305-pound offensive lineman is the top-ranked recruit in Massachusetts and the third-ranked offensive tackle in the country.
The five-star offensive tackle considers Georgia, Alabama, Michigan State, Florida, Penn State, Miami, Oregon, Oklahoma, and Ohio State to be his top schools. Somewhat surprisingly, Okunlola does not rank Pittsburgh among his top nine.
