Boston College football added another player to its 2027 recruiting class on Monday, picking up a commitment from three-star (247, Rivals) linebacker Mamadee Sangaray, a product of Iona Prep (New Rochelle, N.Y.).

Sangaray received his offer from the program in late January.

“I am blessed and excited to announce my commitment to Boston College to continue my academic and athletic career,” Sangaray wrote on X. “I want to thank God, my family, coaches, teammates, and everyone who has supported me throughout this journey and believed in me every step of the way.”

“A special thank you to Coach Bill O’Brien, Dan O’Brien and the entire Boston College staff for believing in me and giving me the opportunity to be part of something special. I’m grateful for all the relationships built during this process and for everyone who helped shape me into the person and player I am today.”

The 6-foot-1, 200-pound outside backer and safety had several more offers from ACC programs, including Georgia Tech, Duke, Syracuse, Wake Forest, and Pittsburgh. According to 247Sports, he is the No. 7-ranked prospect from New York in his class and the 107th-best linebacker in the nation.

As a sophomore, according to his Hudl profile, Sangaray recorded 93 tackles and five interceptions. He did not post his season stats for this past season, however.

Sangaray is the ninth player in the class of 2027 to commit to BC. This past weekend, the Eagles added three-star cornerback Jett Watson, the son of BC football general manager Kenyatta Watson, to the recruiting class as well.
