Alabama fans, in particular, are going wild, with many calling Feaster’s potential commitment a “humongous win” for the Crimson Tide as they look to stock up on receiver talent for the future. And why wouldn’t they be excited? We’re talking about a four-star talent ranked as the No. 4 wide receiver and No. 43 overall player nationally by On3.
This 6’2″, 180-pound playmaker has been tearing it up at DeSoto High School, one of the top football programs in Texas. After putting up 634 yards and nine touchdowns as a freshman, he stepped it up big time as a sophomore with 824 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns.
Originally part of the 2027 class, Feaster decided to reclassify to 2026, mentioning Alabama star Ryan Williams as his inspiration.
Let’s talk about these final four schools – they’re all absolute powerhouses when it comes to developing wide receiver talent. Alabama gets the first crack at impressing Feaster with an official visit scheduled for May 30. Crimson Tide fans aren’t being shy about their enthusiasm either, flooding social media with comments like “If Bama gets Feaster it would be a humongous win.”
USC has caught Feaster’s eye with their offensive firepower under head coach Lincoln Riley and receivers coach Dennis Simmons. “To me, I can say it’s LSU, Ohio State, then USC as Receiver U,” Feaster told On3. “Coach Simmons proved that since he was at Oklahoma, he and Lincoln Riley are a dynamic duo from the passing game to the run game.” He’ll be checking out USC on June 6.
Texas A&M is pushing hard to keep this Texas talent close to home, with an official visit lined up for June 13. And don’t count out LSU, as Feaster will be heading to Baton Rouge on June 20, drawn to the Tigers’ impressive “Receiver U” reputation.
Here’s what’s refreshing about Feaster’s approach – while NIL deals are changing college football recruiting, this young man isn’t making decisions based on dollar signs alone.
“I don’t want to go somewhere based on money,” Feaster explained to On3. “I’m going to go somewhere I still have a good amount of money, but I’m in a good position, good culture, and great surroundings. That’s the biggest thing.”
Recruiting experts believe Feaster’s commitment could create a domino effect throughout the 2026 class. With his size, speed, and production combination, he’s expected to make an immediate impact wherever he lands.
