Washington State WR commit Oliver Bender brings rare size to the 2026 class
Oliver Bender is a 2026 wide receiver/tight end prospect at Nolensville (Tennessee) who is listed at 6'4", giving Washington State a big-bodied target with natural red-zone appeal and the kind of frame that can create matchup problems on the outside or in flexible alignment roles.[1] Publicly available recruiting data on him is sparse, but his listed WR/TE versatility suggests a developmental pass-catcher whose value likely comes from size, catch radius, and positional flexibility rather than a heavy stat profile.[1]
