Bellflower (Calif.) St. John Bosco three-star defensive lineman Sua Lefotu has decommitted from Washington. He was previously committed to the Huskies since June 26.

Lefotu is the No. 1,215 overall prospect and No. 127 defensive lineman in the 2023 cycle, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is also the No. 109 player in California.

On3 rates Lefotu higher than other recruiting services, according to the Industry Comparison. Even though he is not ranked in the 2023 On300, Lefotu is the No. 105 player in California.

“After much thought and consideration with my family, I have decided to reopen my recruitment process and decommit from The University of Washington,” Lefotu wrote in a statement published to social media. “I’m thankful for the opportunity to play there, but at this time I want to explore other options.”

The 6-foot-4, 285 pound prospect took an official visit to Washington on June 24. He currently holds offers from programs including the Huskies, Arizona, Arizona State and Michigan State. Additionally, Texas A&M got an unofficial visit from Lefotu on Feb. 3.

Following Lefotu’s decommitment, Washington’s 2023 recruiting class includes 18 prospects. The group consists of four four-stars and 14 three-stars.

Washington’s class currently ranks No. 32 in the 2023 On3 Consensus Team Recruiting Rankings and No. 4 in the Pac-12. It is led by Lake Charles (La.) Lake Charles College Prep four-star cornerback Curley Reed, the No. 200 overall prospect in the On3 Consensus.

The Huskies have two other top-300 recruits. They are San Jacinto (Calif.) four-star safety Vincent Holmes and Pittsburg (Calif.) four-star wide receiver Rashid Williams.
