Recruitment Rundown
Penn State and Notre Dame were locked into a battle, but Gobaira and his mother made an independent visit to South Bend last winter and it was a wrap. There was little drama here as the four-star prospect was looking for a balance of academics and football, which Notre Dame offers better than anyone in the country.

Big Skills Academy’s Sudan Ellington 
“For an outside linebacker, he has the quickness to play in the flat and he also loves the pass rush, but he's so gritty that he can set the edge as well. So, he shows up in the run game. I mean, you're kind of getting a Swiss Army knife with him.”

ISD Expert Jamie Uyeyama
Watching him reminds me a lot of Julian Okwara as a prospect. He was also skinny and relied on twitch and effort. He eventually developed at Notre Dame and became a solid player setting the edge and one of the better pass rushers in college football.

Irish fans should be excited about his potential. 

Favorite ISD Quote
"I know I made the right decision from the feel of campus and the education I'll be getting there is insane. It's out of this world. The connections I'll make from going to school there will set me up for life without football. 

"With football, I'll be set up for the best chance to go to The League if I desire. Coach Elston is a great teacher and the program is exactly what I was looking for."
