Elite JUCO CB Sione Laulea Names Top Three
College of Mateo (CA) cornerback Sione Laulea is one of the top junior college prospects in the 2024 class.
Laulea, a now very coveted power five cornerback prospect, has trimmed his recruitment once again ahead of his eventual decision. This time, he is down to three schools.
His finalists are made up of USC, Miami, and Oregon. He eliminated Penn State and Oklahoma from his last update a few weeks back.
Laulea has taken official visits to all three of his finalists.
Laulea is one of the top ranked junior college prospects in the nation, holding a 91 rating and 4-star rank in the On300 rankings.

The 6-foot-3.5 and 185 pounder would provide a college experienced player to Williams’s defensive backs room at USC. Next season the Trojans will need younger guys to step up and replace the likes Jacobe Covington, Max Williams, Calen Bullock and Bryson Shaw.
Oregon currently leads the On3 RPM at nearly 83.6% chance to land the four-star. Penn State was thought to be one of the biggest threats in his recruitment at this time, but he left the Nittany Lions off his list. Laulea has not given a commitment date but it would appear he plans on announcing prior to his upcoming season.
