Top 2022 OL Made ND Official A Priority

Earlier tonight, Nevada offensive lineman Jake Taylor announced that he had locked in official visits to Notre Dame and Oklahoma in June.

Speculation has fluctuated regarding the schools at the top of Taylor’s list over the past few months, but the Irish and the Sooners certainly seem to have cemented themselves as his Top 2.

Taylor has a busy schedule in June, but we’re told he made it a priority to get back to Norman, where he visited last Fall, and get to South Bend for the first time.

He could take other visits afterward, but those are the two schools he wanted to see first and he absolutely could make a decision after taking just those trips.

Top 2022 LB Target Wants To Keep Coming Back

2022 Illinois linebacker Sebastian Cheeks‍ has already been to Notre Dame multiple times and wants to keep coming back.

Cheeks is finally in the middle of his junior season, but he’s already looking at getting back to South Bend multiple times, including a potential trip before the dead period is expected to be lifted in June.

Cheeks has already formed a strong relationship with new Irish defensive coordinator Marcus Freeman, but is looking forward to continuing to build that bond as well as his relationship with defensive assistant Nick Lezysnki.

Michigan is pursuing Cheeks hard, but if we had to guess, we’d say Notre Dame is in the best position at this point.


2023 Texas Offensive Lineman Weighs In On ND

Permian offensive lineman Harris Sewell‍ landed an offer from the Irish in February.

“I think it’s a great opportunity,” Sewell told TexAgs’ Jason Howell earlier this week.

Sewell had just got off the phone with Irish offensive line coach Jeff Quinn beforehand.

“I just think it’s crazy how good of an education I can get there, for free,” he said. “He was telling me I’m going to play. I’m not just going to sit on the sidelines. And, all the linemen they’ve produced that go to The League.

“He seems like a super nice guy. He’s really straightforward and he’s recruiting me really hard. It seems like he really wants me.”

Sewell is planning to visit the in-state powers - Texas A&M and Texas - soon and is also considering a trip to South Bend.

“I’m going to Texas and I think we’re going to go to Notre Dame. I’m going to Texas the 11-13th of June and I have to talk to my parents about a date for Notre Dame (in June).”

Malik Muhammad visited South Bend before he was even in high school.

“It was a live atmosphere,” he said of the game against Nevada in 2017. “The fans are loud, like loud. That might've been a lot of game I ever went to.”

Muhammad is hoping to return now that he has an offer from the Irish.
