Notre Dame football trending to add 2026 legacy wide receiver

The Irish are his in bloodlines

If you follow Notre Dame football recruiting, you have noticed a trend over the last few years: The Irish are going after former players’ sons.

Well, it looks like that will be the case once again if On3’s Mike Singer is correct. On Tuesday night, he logged a prediction for Notre Dame to land 2026 wide receiver [autotag]Trent Mosley[/autotag] of Rancho Santa Margarita, California.

The California native stands 5 feet, 11 inches and weighs 170 pounds. He is the nation’s 138th overall prospect on the 247Sports composite.

His father, [autotag]Emmett Mosley[/autotag], played for the Irish from 1993-1996. His mother, Cindy, was a star soccer player for Notre Dame who won the Hermann Trophy, Honda Sports Award and Honda-Broderick Cup as the country’s top player.

The bloodlines are strong, but the pipeline isn’t necessarily a given. Trent’s older brother, Emmett, signed with Stanford during the 2024 cycle. The younger Mosley hopefully will follow in his parents’ footsteps and star in South Bend.

UCLA extends offer to four-star 2026 wide receiver

The offers keep pouring in!

The UCLA Bruins have made steady progress in their recruiting since the departure of Chip Kelly this spring. Kelly famously failed to capitalize on recruiting local talent, but things have changed under Southern California native DeShaun Foster.

Under Foster, the Bruins have secured commitments from some top-level players including Warren High School quarterback Madden Iamaleava. This week, the Bruins extended an offer to a four-star wide receiver to potentially pair up with Iamaleava.

Trent Mosely, a class of 2026 prospect, ranks as the 13th-best wide receiver in the country, according to 247 Sports. The Bruins secured a commitment from Mosely’s teammate, fellow wideout Jonah Smith, and could potentially be building a pipeline with the program.

Mosley has qualifying offers from other NCAA heavy-hitters including rival USC, Alabama, Oregon, and Michigan. But if UCLA can put together a similar pitch as they did for Smith, they could have a chance to start stacking high-level players on offense for the future.
