Cal is battling with several top programs for high three-star Texas-based defensive line recruit Xavier Okponu. The 2025 prospect from Guyer HS in Denton spent the weekend in Berkeley for an official visit kicking off a busy stretch for the 6-foot-3, 300-pound recruit. He will next see Arkansas, Florida and LSU, but the Bears made some headway in his recruitment over the weekend.

He's cancelled his Oregon visit and USC has fallen out of favor with Ukponu leaving just Washington and Cal as the West Coast schools in the picture as it stands right now. The Bears have continued to sell him on a potential opportunity to play early, and that has resonated with him.

"It was fun, I had a great time. They treated me very well, they treated my family well. The players were cool. It was a great experience. They emphasized that I can come in and make an impact early my freshman year and that Cal is home."
