Oklahoma State Offers 2023 California OL Tavake Tuikolovatu

STILLWATER – Oklahoma State continues to try and bolster its 2023 offensive line class as Charlie Dickey has extended an offer to an offensive lineman out of California.

Tavake Tuikolovatu took to Twitter Friday morning to announce the offer.

Tuikolovatu is 6-6, 300 pounds and is out of Summit HS in Fontana, CA. He’s being recruited by OSU and Dickey as an offensive lineman, but he also plays defensive tackle/end for the SkyHawks.

He currently holds six offers, Cal, Oklahoma State, Oregon State, UCLA, Utah and Washington State. He’s already officially visited Cal and Utah and is planning on a trip to UCLA.

OSU player development specialist Beni Tonga is helping spearhead this recruiting process as both he and Tuikolovatu are of Tongan decent. But not only that, both he and Tuikolovatu are blood cousins.

On the defensive side of the ball, Tuikolovatu has combined for 31 total tackles, 18 of which have been solo stops, 6.0 tackles for loss, six quarterback hurries, 3.0 sacks and one forced fumble and recovery.

On the offensive side of the ball, through eight games this season, the SkyHawks have posted 914 passing yards and 12 touchdowns on 50 passes and 2,149 rushing yards and 23 touchdowns on 270 carries.

The Cowboys currently hold two OL commitments in the 2023 class, JaKobe Sanders out of Stillwater and Jack Endean out of Tanque Verde in Tucson, AZ. Dickey and the offensive staff is also looking to add two JUCO OLmen before the end of the 2023 cycle as well. You can read about them here.
