University of Utah offensive line commit Kelvin Obot was already rated a five-star recruit by Rivals, but in the recruiting service’s updated rankings, he received a bump in national rank.
The Fruitland, Idaho, product is now ranked the No. 4 prospect in the 2026 recruiting class by Rivals, up from No. 7.
Rivals released its updated rankings on Monday.
“We’ve loved the Idaho native’s junior film since last October. Obot shows outstanding functional athleticism and is a dominant player against weaker competition. Since February, we’ve nailed down verified measurements and Obot is bigger than expected, checking in at north of 6-foot-5.5 and 300 pounds with plus length,” Rivals director of scouring and rankings Charles Power said in a breakdown of the 16 five-star talents in the updated Rivals recruit rankings.
“We feel like the great film, stellar movement skills, projectable frame, and multi-sport background (53-1 foot shot put throw this spring) give him one of the higher upsides at offensive tackle in the cycle.”
