Boston College Football Picks up Fifth 2027 DL Commit With Three Star Corey Randolph

In this story:
On Friday, the Boston College football program added its 25th commit in the class of 2027, picking up consensus three-star defensive/offensive lineman Corey Randolph out of Simeon High School (Chicago, Ill.).
Randolph, who had 17 total Division-I offers, chose the Eagles over Miami, Stanford, Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska, and Wisconsin.
He announced his decision on X, just two hours after posting about his official visit to the Heights.

With a 6-foot-4, 305-pound frame, Randolph is ranked the 151st defensive lineman in the country and the 43rd player from Illinois in his class, according to 247Sports.
As of late, BC’s recruiting staff has made a strong push to improve its interior defense in the class, as Randolph’s commitment marks the fifth defensive-line commit in the Eagles’ ‘27 class since last week.
This class — the second under BC head coach Bill O’Brien — is now ranked No. 39 in the country on 247Sports, along with No. 55 on Rivals.
