Georgia lands massive 6'9" offensive tackle commit

The Georgia Bulldogs are expected to receive a major boost to their 2027 recruiting class. Four-star offensive tackle Joshua Sam-Epelle, a physically imposing 6-foot-9, 310-pound prospect, is predicted to commit to the program. Sam-Epelle's size is a significant asset, and he is recognized as one of the top players in his class. Currently, Sam-Epelle holds the fifth spot nationally among offensive tackles in the 2027 recruiting cycle, according to 247Sports. He is also the top-ranked offensive lineman in Georgia for his class, highlighting his local importance. His sophomore season in 2024 was impacted by a torn ACL sustained in September. Despite this setback, Georgia has shown a strong interest in his abilities, potentially influencing his decision, alongside the playing time afforded to younger offensive linemen.
