During an NCAA college football game between Sam Houston State and BYU on September 2, 2023, the logo for the Big 12 Conference was prominently displayed on the field in Provo, Utah. After a busy weekend of recruiting, BYU football secured a commitment from Ulavai Fetuli, a tight end and edge rusher from La Habra, California, for the class of 2025.
In his announcement on social media on Sunday night, Fetuli expressed his gratitude to everyone who had been a part of his journey. He specifically thanked his lord and savior, his parents, and all the coaches at BYU for believing in him. The 6-foot-5, 240-pound three-star prospect tagged defensive tackles coach Sione Po’uha in his commitment post, indicating his likely role on defense for BYU.
Fetuli had multiple offers from other schools, including Cal and New Mexico State, but ultimately chose BYU. This commitment comes after two other prospects, LaMason Waller and Tucker Kelleher, also committed to BYU football over the weekend. The Cougars continue to build their roster and strengthen their team for the future.
