MSU target, 3-star DL Gavin Neil commits to Boston College following official visit
MSU target, 3-star DL Gavin Neil commits to Boston College following official visit A Michigan State defensive lineman target in the 2026 class has committed to a program the Spartans will lineup against this upcoming season. Gavin Neil of Chicago Heights, Ill. announced his commitment to Boston College on Sunday. The commitment -- which he announced via a post on social media platform X -- to the Eagles from Neil comes after he took an official visit to Boston College this past weekend. Neil is a three-star defensive lineman in the 2026 class, and holds a recruiting rating of 86 on 247Sports. He ranks as the No. 140 defensive lineman and No. 34 player from Illinois in the class. Michigan State was Neil's only other power four offer at this point in the recruitment, and the Spartans were the previous favorite to land his commitment. Boston College, though, entered the mix this past week with an offer and a quick official visit to get him on their recruiting board. Neil was supposed to visit Michigan State next week but it is assumed that he will not be making that visit now.

MSU target, 3-star DL Gavin Neil picks up offer from Boston College
A Michigan State defensive lineman target is gaining some traction on the recruiting trail, with a power four school extending him an offer this week. Gavin Neil of Chicago Heights, Ill. announced on Tuesday that he's received an offer from Boston College. Neil posted on his social media X account to share the notable offer from the Eagles. Advertisement Neil is a three-star defensive lineman in the 2026 class, and holds a recruiting rating of 86 on 247Sports. He ranks as the No. 140 defensive lineman and No. 34 player from Illinois in the class. Michigan State and Boston College are the only two power four conference schools to offer Neil at this point in his recruitment, according to 247Sports. He holds other offers from smaller schools such as Ball State, Eastern Michigan, Western Michigan, Central Michigan, Marshall, Wyoming, Air Force, Army and Northern Illinois. Neil is set to take an official visit to Michigan State on June 20, and is currently projected to end up a Spartan via 247Sports' crystal ball predictions. So this latest offer from Boston College could threaten the Spartans' chances of landing his commitment later this month. This is certainly a prospect to keep an eye on as we progress through the next few weeks.
