The first big surprise of the early signing period (for Notre Dame anyway) occurred on Wednesday morning when it was announced that local legacy Ron Powlus III had signed his NLI with Notre Dame. The 6'3"/225-pounder out of Granger, Indiana joins a Notre Dame class that is currently ranked 9th in the country. The Penn [...]
Notre Dame football received its 24th commit in the 2021 class on Wednesday when defensive end Devin Aupiu verbally committed to the Fighting Irish. The 6'5"/220-pounder out of California had previously been committed to Chip Kelly and the UCLA Bruins since April, but a Notre Dame offer from the superior Kelly in late November would [...]
2021 Thoughts Notre Dame is currently sitting at 17 solid commits (not counting David Abiara) and there are probably only three spots left. The Fighting Irish staff is undoubtedly looking to close out the class strong. An ideal yet still realistic situation would probably look something like this: Dont'e Thornton -- WR -- 6'4"/185 -- [...]
Up until today, linebacker was the position with the longest running recruiting drought for Notre Dame football. It had been 628 days since the Fighting Irish last received a verbal commitment (JD Bertand -- November 19, 2018 if you were wondering). That long drought finally ended today when Prince Kollie decided to verbally commit to [...]
After a nearly 3-month-long commitment drought on the offensive side of the ball, Notre Dame received some very welcome news today when offensive tackle Joe Alt decided to verbally commit to the Fighting Irish. The 6'7"/260-pounder out of Minneapolis, MN is the 12th commit in the Irish Class of 2021 -- a class which currently [...]
It's been a pretty slow summer for Notre Dame football on the recruiting trail. With the recruiting dead period extended through July due to the coronavirus pandemic and no visits allowed to occur, it's been difficult for the Irish staff to make moves with some of the targets that haven't been able to visit campus [...]
Apologies as we've been slacking with the recruiting updates lately. Today, we'll catch everyone up on the recent commits in an extra special 3-for-1 recruiting article. Following a quiet late winter and early spring as the COVID-19 outbreak challenged programs all across the country we have seen an uptick in movement out of South Bend [...]
Notre Dame football gained some much-needed good news this Friday afternoon, as defensive end David Abiara has decided to verbally commit to the Fighting Irish. The 6'4"/250-pounder out of Mansfield, TX is the 3rd defensive commit in Notre Dame's class of 2021, joining defensive tackle Gabe Rubio and safety Justin Walters. David first received his [...]
If you haven't already seen it, last week I reviewed my way-too-early guess at Notre Dame's recruiting class of 2020. I promised another way-too-early guess for 2021 was on the way -- and here it is. As with the 2019 cycle, the class of 2020 was all wrapped up in mid-December, giving the Notre Dame [...]
Notre Dame football's big recruiting weekend is starting off with a BIG bang. Elite 2021 prospect Deion Colzie has decided to verbally commit to the Fighting Irish. The 6'4"/195-pounder out of Athens, Georgia is the 6th commit for Notre Dame's Recruiting Class of 2021 -- a class which already includes FIVE players ranked in the [...]
Notre Dame football fans received their second dose of excellent news this Saturday afternoon, when offensive lineman Blake Fisher decided to verbally commit to the Fighting Irish. The 6'6"/330-pounder out of Avon, Indiana is the second class of 2021 recruit to verbal to the Fighting Irish today, and the 4th overall to join Notre Dame's [...]
A big-time recruiting day started up earlier this Saturday afternoon when 4-star defensive tackle Gabriel Rubio decided to verbally commit to the Fighting Irish. The 6'5"/290-pounder out of Missouri was (more on that later) the 3rd player to commit to Notre Dame for the Class of 2021. Notre Dame was an offer that Rubio coveted [...]
