2021 Clarkston (Mich.) offensive lineman Rocco Spindler‍ released his top 10 schools on Monday morning and the Fighting Irish made the cut. 

The 6-foot-4, 290-pounder will turn his focus on Alabama, Arizona State, Florida, LSU, Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Penn State and Tennessee. 

At a quick glance, it seems like a race between Michigan and Notre Dame as they are the programs Spindler has visited the most over the last year. 

As it relates to Notre Dame, Spindler will be back in South Bend on March 21st for a weekend visit and it's a significant one. 

The last time Spindler was on campus, he was able to meet with head coach Brian Kelly.

"He’s not the same in the press conferences and on the field," Spindler told ISD at the Under Armour Combine in January. "He was electric. He was fired up. He was all jacked up on Mountain Dew or something. I was like, ‘Man, you’re totally different. This is awesome.’ Seeing how Coach is different off the field talking to people, but when he’s gritting down, it’s something special.”

Offensive line coach Jeff Quinn has also made quite the impression as he's made his way to Spindler's school multiple times over the last three months. 

"He’s one of the best offensive line coaches in college football,” said Spindler. “He’s definitely personable and loves the family and brotherhood aspect of everything.”
