In this story:


Things continue to look up on the recruiting trail for Bill O'Brien and the Boston College staff. Over just the last two weeks, the Eagles have added three commitments to the 2026 recruiting class, and now look to be closing in on another.

3-Star wide receiver Brayden Allen from Lafayette, Louisiana took to social media on Saturday to announce his top schools, including Boston College among Vanderbilt, Texas Tech and Tulane.

Standing at 6-foot-1, 170 lbs., Allen is a speedy wideout with the ability to both stretch the field and operate in the slot. He is dynamic in the open field, but can also be a deep threat along the outside with his wide catch radius.

247Sports' composite ranking ranks Allen as the No. 160 wide receiver in the nation and the No. 29 player in the Bayou State. He was in Lubbock, Texas for his visit with the Red Raiders this past weekend on June 13, and is set to make the trip to Boston College on the June 20.

As of now, the Eagles hold 17 commitments in the 2026 recruiting class, but are looking to land more prospects before the end of the summer. If O'Brien and the staff can continue to build what is already looking like an impressive class, Boston College could be looking at one of its best groups in recent program history.
