Feaster is a 6-foot standout wide receiver who plays for DeSoto High School in Texas—a powerhouse in one of the nation's most competitive football states.
As a freshman, Feaster played a key role in leading DeSoto to the Texas 6A Division II state championship. That season, he recorded 634 receiving yards and nine touchdowns.
His second season saw him take another leap forward, posting over 800 receiving yards and 14 touchdowns. Known for his explosiveness and playmaking ability, Feaster is also a top-level track athlete, adding another layer to his elite athletic profile.

Notably, Feaster was originally part of the Class of 2027, but has reclassified to join the Class of 2026, accelerating his path to the collegiate level.
While programs like the University of Utah and Texas Longhorns were heavily interested, they did not make the final cut.
As July 4th approaches, the college football world will be watching closely to see which elite program lands Feaster's commitment.
Given his athleticism and productivity, Boobie Feaster is set to make a major impact at the next level — wherever he chooses to go.

Pennsylvania 2026 star offensive tackle Grayson McKeogh has Notre Dame as a finalist
Pennsylvania 2026 star offensive tackle Grayson McKeogh has Notre Dame as a finalist Notre Dame is one of three finalists for four-star Class of 2026 product Grayson McKeogh, but the Fighting Irish will have a tough act to beat after the offensive tackle enjoyed his visit to Penn State. The 6-foot-7, 275-pounder from La Salle College (Glenside, PA) will visit Notre Dame June 13-15 before heading to Texas June 20-22. It's not very often Texas recruits a Pennsylvania product either, which speaks to how impressive the offensive lineman has been. It's been quite the rise for McKeogh, who had never played on the offensive line for the Explorers until head coach Brett Gordon took over the program before his junior season. Now, the former defensive end is one of the most desirable left tackles in the country and the seventh-best prospect in his state, per the 247Sports Composite Rankings. His visit to State College reportedly went very well, so it's going to be difficult for the Fighting Irish to woo the star tackle, who could stay in-state and play for a strong Big Ten program. Additionally, Texas will get the chance to make one final impression. Can the Longhorns win this tight battle? McKeogh plans to make his decision July 1.

Notre Dame 2026 edge target McHale Blade chooses the Michigan Wolverines
Notre Dame 2026 edge target McHale Blade chooses the Michigan Wolverines A Notre Dame target from the Class of 2026 has decided to play college football elsewhere. McHale Blade, who had offers from USC, Georgia and Florida among many others outside of the Fighting Irish, announced his commitment to Michigan Monday 6-foot-4, 245-pound four-star edge from Simeon (Chicago, IL) received his offer from the Wolverines last May and took his official visit to Ann Arbor the weekend of June 6. But Notre Dame was considered a strong contender for Blade prior to his official visit to Michigan. Obviously Blade's time was a success for both parties, and the Wolverines are up to eight commitments in the 2026 class. Blade is ranked No. 5 in the state of Illinois and No. 21 at his position in his class, per the 247Sports Composite Rankings. Despite losing out on Blade, the Irish currently have three defensive linemen in the fold for their very strong 2026 class, and they remain in the mix for several top prospects.

Mason Graham Sized DT Makes Big Michigan Themed Announcement Monday
Mason Graham Sized DT Makes Big Michigan Themed Announcement Monday originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Michigan Wolverines secured their second defensive line commitment for the Class of 2026 on Monday as McHale Blade of Simeon High School chose the Wolverines over Georgia, USC and a host of others. Advertisement Blade joined EDGE Tariq Boney on the defensive line with the Wolverines busy restocking a team that lost tackles Mason Graham and Kenneth Grant to the NFL draft this past April. The Blade announcement was coupled with big news from a Liberty Hill, Texas based four-star defensive lineman whose size and skills may remind some fans of Graham, who is now in the NFL after he was selected fifth in the draft by the Cleveland Browns.

Vallejo stands 6-feet, 3 inches tall and weighs 310 pounds, providing a similar build to Graham as a multi-dimensional defensive tackle who has played defensive end in high school. Advertisement Vallejo lists Kansas, Notre Dame and Michigan as his final three choices based on his recent update. "TX-MI," Michigan recruit Jaylen Pile wrote under Vallejo's post in hopes of swaying him to the Wolverines. Jayhawks and Fighting Irish fans were also active in the comments section. "Michigan had 2 DTs going top 15 in the NFL draft. NDs best DT went in the 5th. Also, ND can't win a natty. Pretty easy choice," another fan added. "Michigan is D Line U," another said. "Rock Chalk," another added, sharing the famous Jayhawks slogan on X.
