Notre Dame Hosting Elite Talent This Weekend
COMMITS2027 QB Wonderful Monds IV 2027 OL Albert Simien 2027 DL Brayden Parks 2027 LB Roman Igwebuike 2027 CB Ace Alston 2027 CB Xavier Hasan 2027 LS Sean Kraft 2028 K Owen Davies QB2030 Brother Rice (Il.) Sam Holcomb Yes. 2030. He's the starter on one of the best teams in Illinois and has been groomed to play quarterback from a young age by his father, Greg, who runs Next Level QBs out of Chicago. Holcomb holds offers from Austin Peay, UConn and Purdue. RB 2028 Central (Ga.) RB Jacez Walton The brother of Notre Dame freshman running back Jonaz Walton will once again return to campus. Walton, a three-star prospect, holds offers from Auburn, Charlotte, East Carolina, Florida, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Kansas, Kennesaw State, Liberty, LSU, Maryland, Memphis, Miami, Minnesota, Mississippi State, NC State, North Carolina, Oregon, Penn State, South Florida, Stanford, Tennessee, UAB and Virginia Tech. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/18368587/6aa633fa7e3f3a7dd5dada782028 Oswego (Ill.) RB Ammar Banire The three-star back is an intriguing prospect as he had a big sophomore season and then put up a laser 4.37 and a 38-inch vertical this summer. He holds offers from Arkansas, Austin Peay, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Iowa State, Kansas State, Miami (OH), North Dakota, Northwestern, Ohio and Western Michigan. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/24458844/6aa8b04f7324a0437de85757WR2029 Battle Ground Academy (Tenn.) WR Maddox Porter The four-star prospect holds close to 40 offers, including Notre Dame. The 6-foot-2, 190-pounder visited Notre Dame over the summer and left with an offer. Big-time prospect and Mike Brown is in on him early. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/26491413/68c890d57a6511b68ba7e32e2028 Northrop (Ind.) WR Maddox Weil The Fort Wayne native has been a priority target for Notre Dame during the offseason and will make his return to South Bend this weekend. Notre Dame is in his top group entering the fall and will be competing with Indiana and Ohio State. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/21782856/68ac4c645000976562fec4c82028 Morton (Ind.) WR Corderro Bennett Bennett will make the drive from The Region to Notre Dame for the second weekend in a row. The elite athlete is someone Notre Dame is still evaluating. 2028 Moeller (Ohio) WR Dean Schnitzler The Ohio native holds offers from Cincinnati, UConn, Kent State, Purdue and Toledo. 2028 Lawrence North (Ind.) WR KeiVon Mattox The Indy native holds an offer from Miami (OH) and visited Notre Dame last fall for a game. TE 2029 Westfield (Ind.) TE Caiden Snow It's not often Notre Dame offers tight ends early, but Snow seems like the ideal candidate as he holds over 30 offers. He's been to Notre Dame before so this could end up being a good weekend for the in-state prospect. OL2028 Carmel Catholic (Ill.) OL Wyatt VanBoening It will be back-to-back weekends VanBoening will be at Notre Dame, so that's likely a positive sign for Joe Rudolph. The Irish were a favorite to land him before last weekend, so a second trip in two weeks speaks volumes. DL 2028 The Woodlands (Texas) DL RJ Wyms Wyms will make his much anticipated trip to South Bend and he's the type of prospect Charlie Partridge has done well with before. Wyms is a bit undersized, but it'd be hard to find a more violent player in the country. He's got over 30 offers, including Notre Dame. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/23160520/6930f522ed300dee6cd272b12028 Warren (Ohio) DE Asa Burch The Michigan legacy has been a frequent visitor to Notre Dame over the last year, including a stop for Irish Invasion, where he worked out and already had an offer in hand. Ohio State had him work out at linebacker, so it speaks to his athleticism. This one will likely come down to Michigan, Notre Dame and Ohio State. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/22802235/6a996ea66346fbb1262db7252028 Buford (Ga.) DL Luke Nabors It's been a minute since Notre Dame has hosted a player from Georgia powerhouse Buford, but that's where Notre Dame recruiting is at. Nabors is one of the top defensive linemen in the country, and this will be his first look at Notre Dame. He's another prospect who hold over 30 offers. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/22406990/694584fbec1607b3db0db79b2028 Muncie Central (Ind.) DE Demarshuwn Clemens The 6-foot-4, 262-pounder competed at Irish Invasion over the summer and is a name gaining some momentum this fall. Clemens holds offers from Cincinnati, FAU, Kansas, Miami (OH), Missouri and San Diego State. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17895009/6a9ecee894335823c43a78cbLB2028 Servite (Calif.) LB Allen Kennett One of Notre Dame's top linebacker targets in 2028 will get on campus this weekend. Kennett will be one of the most coveted backers in the class, so this is a big visit. He's got all the West Coast offers already, so Notre Dame will need to make an impression this weekend. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/23081113/68bfbfc1e41754815a2824a1 2028 Carmel Catholic (Ill.) LB Jameer Miles Miles is another key linebacker target for Notre Dame and getting on campus early is a win. Miles holds offers from Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas State, Michigan State, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Oregon, Penn State, Tennessee, Texas A&M and Wisconsin. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/23367421/69190185930670c0e479bf6cDB2028 Pickerington North (Ohio) S Geordan McKnight The Irish offered McKnight following camp in June, so he has a feel for what Notre Dame's staff and campus have to offer. It'll be a tough recruitment as he's in Ohio State's backyard and holds an offer from the Buckeyes, and then he's been offered by close to 30 other schools. Alabama and Texas both offered in the last month. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/19499627/6a9bcb42aa043af497ed6e352028 DeMatha (Md.) CB Langston Pridgeon The DeMatha star might be the top prospect on campus as he's flirting with five-star status. He holds close to 40 offers and has already been on campus so this will be a chance to solidify status in his recruitment. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/22681894/69418cab50525767939ea80eNotre Dame Fighting Irish Champion Operation Hat Trick Flag Hooded Long Sleeve T-Shirt

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.
