Michigan State verbal commit Samson Gash is set to play in the Polynesian Bowl on January 16, 2026. The Polynesian Bowl annually brings together the world’s top high school football players to celebrate culture and play the game they love.”
The 2026 edition of the Polynesian Bowl will be televised on NFL Network. The game is set to kick off at 9 p.m. ET.
Gash is a four-star wide receiver, with a recruiting rating of 90 on 247Sports. He is ranked as the No. 50 wide receiver and No. 5 player from Michigan in the class.
Gash has been verbally committed to Michigan State since late June but elected to not sign with the Spartans during the early signing period earlier this month. He remained verbally committed to the Spartans but is exploring all options at this time. In the last few weeks, Gash has picked up offers from Penn State and Georgia, and has also been heavily connected with Alabama as well.
