Mike Mickens Leaves Notre Dame’s Secondary Better Than He Found It
When Mike Mickens arrived in 2020, Notre Dame’s cornerback room was underwhelming. In 2026, it’s one of the deepest and most talented in the country, a testament to elite development and evaluation.

Tulsa Graduate Transfer TE Brody Foley Visiting
A source confirms with ISD Hayes Fawcett's report that Notre Dame will host Tulsa graduate transfer Brady Foley this week. The 6-foot-6, 230-pounder recorded 37 receptions for 528 yards and seven touchdowns in 2025, while also adding two rushing scores. Before his year at Tulsa, Foley played at Indiana for three seasons. He did not record a stat while primarily playing a special-teams role for the Hoosiers. He's from Anderson HS in Cincinnati, which Notre Dame has strong ties to, and it's where 2027 cornerback Ace Alston currently plays. Per 247 Sports, Foley is the No. 3 tight end and the No. 58 overall prospect in the portal. ON3 rates Foley as the No. 3 tight end and No. 56 prospect. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOSAfXGLk28Notre Dame Fighting Irish Under Armour Shillelagh Clover Rival Fleece Sweatshirt

National Average Rating

The National Average Rating is a proprietary formula that calculates an industry-wide aggregate rating for each recruiting prospect. The formula includes publicly listed grades, scores, ratings and rankings by national recruiting services, along with a Irish Sports Daily rating. Combining the data provides a rating for each prospect, which is then normalized to fit the Irish Sports Daily Rating 100-point scale.

The intent of this rating is to provide Irish Sports Daily readers with a comprehensive snapshot of how individual prospects rank nationally.

Staff Predictions

The predictions represent which school each staff member believes will ultimately sign the recruit, and the confidence meter represents his level of certainty in that outcome.

Example #1

If the predicted school is Notre Dame and confidence is set to “High”, then the staff member is saying “I believe that this recruit will ultimately sign with Notre Dame and I feel very certain about that.”

Example #2

If the predicted school is “Alabama” and confidence is set to “Low,” then the staff member is saying “I believe that this recruit will ultimately sign with Alabama, but I’m not very certain about that.”
