Kansas State Lands 2026 DL Kingston Hall Over Big 12 Foe

Coming out of Tahlequah High School in the Class of 2026, Hall is listed as a three-star prospect by the 247Sports index. He also checks in as the 118th-ranked player at his position and the 22nd-ranked player in the state of Oklahoma.

At 6′3″, 270 lbs, Hall adds ideal size to K-State’s front. He’s versatile enough to play both defensive tackle and end, aligning with the Wildcats’ focus on adaptable, scheme-fit athletes.

Currently, the Wildcats’ 2026 class features more offensive additions than defensive players. Landing a DL like Hall early would balance the class and send a signal to other defensive targets that K-State is serious about recruiting both sides of the trenches.

With his commitment, Hall became the 10th addition to Kansas State’s class, joining a talented crop of three-star prospects. He becomes just the third addition on the defensive side of the ball in K-State’s class, alongside three-star linebacker DJ Ackerson and three-star defensive back Brandon Ford.
