Texas A&M continues to make headlines in 2026 recruiting. Following the announcement that Tristen Keys, the top-ranked wide receiver in the class, has scheduled his official visit, Ethan “Boobie” Feaster, the No. 8 wide receiver, has also set his visit date to Texas A&M.
Feaster recently reclassified from the 2027 class—where he was a top-10 national prospect—to the 2026 class, where he now ranks No. 67 overall in the Top247 rankings. The talented wide receiver comes from Texas powerhouse DeSoto, a program known for producing top-tier Power 4 talent. In 2025, DeSoto sent four-star WR Daylon Singleton to SMU and running back Deondrae Riden to Texas A&M.
Last season, DeSoto posted an impressive 11-3 record, finishing No. 8 in Texas. Feaster played a key role in that success, earning Freshman and Sophomore All-American honors from MaxPreps. He hauled in 57 catches for 824 yards and 13 touchdowns, proving himself as a dangerous playmaker.
At 6-foot-1, Feaster pairs his size with elite speed, having clocked a 4.47-second 40-yard dash as a 16-year-old. Many fans might recognize him from viral social media clips featuring DeSoto High School—or simply because of his distinctive nickname.
Texas A&M faces tough competition for Feaster, as he has already scheduled visits to Alabama, LSU, Oregon, USC, and Miami (FL) in addition to the Aggies. His nickname, “Boobie,” dates back to when he was about four years old. After watching Friday Night Lights before a game, he told his coach, “If you wanna win, put Boobie in!”—and the name stuck. Over time, he’s become something of a folk hero in Texas high school football circles.
Though he has yet to break 1,000 receiving yards in a season, Feaster is aiming to hit that milestone in his third and final year at DeSoto. Despite some volatility in his 247Sports ranking, he remains a highly regarded prospect with the potential to make a major impact at the next level.
As one of the nation’s top recruiting battles unfolds, all eyes will be on Feaster as he looks to establish himself as the top wide receiver in the 2026 class. With his dynamic playmaking ability, he hopes to follow in the footsteps of elite prospects like Ryan Williams.
