Safe Travels | ND Prospects Visiting Elsewhere | 4/12
Notre Dame may be having a relatively quiet recruiting weekend for its spring game, but other programs are using their inter-squad exhibitions to have larger ones. And many of those schools will be hosting some Irish targets. Ohio State is having its spring game this weekend and will have several athletes on campus including 2021 Maryland offensive lineman Landon Tengwall, who named Notre Dame his leader following a visit to South Bend last month. Other recent Notre Dame visitors who will be in Columbus this weekend include 2021 offensive lineman Harisen Miller, 2021 linebacker Yanni Karlaftis, 2020 running back Michael Drennen II and 2020 defensive end Darrion Henry. Oklahoma has shifted its spring game from Saturday to tonight because of weather. Like the Buckeyes, the Sooners will be hosting some recent Notre Dame visitors. 2020 offensive lineman Jimmy Christ and 2020 cornerback Ryan Watts were both in South Bend on officials last week. 2020 running back Chris Tyree was at Notre Dame a couple weeks ago and is scheduled to be in Norman this weekend along with 2020 offensive lineman Roger Rosengarten, 2020 safety Lathan Ransom and 2020 defensive back Dontae Manning. Texas A&M has also moved its spring game from Saturday to Friday and they will also be hosting several targets, including some on the Notre Dame radar, perhaps none more so than 2020 wide receiver Maliq Carr. Other recruits expected in College Station this weekend include 2020 defensive end Alfred Collins, 2020 receiver Troy Omeire and 2021 defensive ends Tunmise Adeleye and Landon Jackson. Meanwhile, Texas has decided not to shift the date of its spring game, which could allow for prospects like Omeire and Collins to attend both. The Longhorns are also expected to host 2020 running back Bijan Robinson, 2020 offensive lineman Chad Lindberg and 2021 offensive lineman Tommy Brockermeyer. After a great visit to Notre Dame last weekend, 2020 cornerback Jalen Kimber will be at Florida this weekend for his last unofficial visit before planning officials. 2020 Washington, D.C., athlete Mordecai McDaniel was also in South Bend last weekend and will also be in Gainesville this weekend. 2020 running back Kyle Edwards is scheduled to be at Alabama as is top 2021 tight end Cane Berrong. 2020 tight end/defensive end Ben Yurosek was at Notre Dame a couple weeks ago and is expected to be at Washington this weekend.

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.
