Cal Lands Hawaii OL Star for 2027
11 Jun
Summary
- Isaiah Bertola, a four-star offensive lineman from Hawaii, committed to Cal.
- Cal's 2027 class now features eight four-star recruits, the most since 2011.
- Bertola chose Cal over finalists BYU and USC, holding offers from numerous top programs.
The Golden Bears have added another highly-rated prospect to their 2027 recruiting class with the commitment of Isaiah Bertola, a four-star offensive lineman hailing from Ewa Beach, Hawaii. This marks a significant boost for the program, bringing their total commitments for 2027 to 20.
Significantly, Cal now boasts eight four-star commitments in this class, its highest tally since 2011. The program has struggled to attract multiple four-star recruits in recent years, averaging fewer than two per season over the last five years. Bertola's decision to commit to Cal over finalists BYU and USC underscores the team's recruiting success.
The 6-foot-5, 305-pound Bertola also held offers from a host of other prominent college football programs. He attends James Campbell High School, the same alma mater as current Cal quarterback Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele. While Rivals rates him as a four-star prospect, ESPN and 247Sports consider him a three-star recruit.
