let the suckers grow from the rootstock for now, then in late winter collect some equivalent-thickness donor branches (scion) from a friend or neighbor of whatever citrus you want to grow (or more than one!) and graft onto your rootstock suckers.
Plenty of great tutorials on yutube. A razorblade and rubberbands is all that you really need, though a roll of paraffin tape is handy to keep the scion and joint from drying out before union occurs.
You've got a head start in the old rootball and can create your own tree.

Man, I am tempted by this, but honestly, satsumas do not appear to be common in CENLA, and most got hit hard. I will if I can, but more likely I just dig it all up and start over.
