Post-Visit Update | 2027 S John Gay III
It appears Notre Dame made an extremely strong first impression on 2027 Florida safety John Gay III who made his first visit to South Bend this weekend.The Irish may have put themselves in a very strong position for Gay, who now appears like he'll be making a decision earlier than initially he expected.Gay came away clearly comfortable with the program, particularly the coaches and the players as well as the overall environment.Gay emphasized the staff's message around versatility and development, along with the program's focus beyond football, which continues to resonate with him early in the process.More importantly, timing is now a major factor.Gay had scheduled several official visits, including one to Notre Dame in June, but said he now expects to make a decision sometime within the next two weeks. He has no other unofficial visits set, so will now go into decision mode. This quote in particular stood out to me."If I had a kid, I would want my kid to go there."

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.”
