2026 defensive lineman Isaac Chukwurah took to social media this week to announce an upcoming official visit to Boston College. The 6-foot-4, 250 lb. prospect will be in Chestnut Hill on June 13th.

He will not be the only prospect in town; however, as Boston College is also expected to host tight end William Vaughn for a visit on the same weekend as well.

Chukwurah spoke with Boston College Eagles on SI about his upcoming visit, sharing what he hopes to learn about the campus as well as opening up on his relationship with the coaching staff.

"I have a great relationship with the coaching staff," Chukwurah said, "I talk to a lot coaches on both sides of the ball and have a strong connection with most of them, especially coach [Jordan] Thomas and coach [Savon] Huggins."

He also explained what he hopes to accomplish with his upcoming June visit, saying, "I want to continue to strengthen my relationship with the coaching staff and see if it's the right fit for me."

Chukwurah spoke on Bill O'Brien's first season as head coach and what he was most impressed by. He highlighted the defensive line play, particularly the edge defenders.

"What stood out to me was how the defensive ends thrived in that defense. To have a top three sack leader in the nation is awesome," the rising senior said. Of course, Chukwurah is referring to none other than former Eagles star Donovan Ezeiruaku who is expected to be drafted at the end of April.

As of now, Boston College holds nine commitments in the 2026 recruiting class, but with plenty of time until players make final decisions, the Eagles are looking for more talent. While Chukwurah is not currently ranked by major recruiting outlets, he holds over 15 scholarship offers and certainly possesses the physical traits of an elite edge defender.
