2025 DE Israel Oladipupo Honored By Attention At Notre Dame

Israel Oladipupo‍ made it to South Bend for an Evaluation Camp earlier this month and the 2025 Indiana defensive end is happy he did.

“It was amazing,” the Noblesville High School standout said afterward. “Everything went well. I just went out there and was just competing and everything. I got the work done and that's it.

“When we were doing one-on-ones I made sure I went out there with no fear in my heart to just make sure, I went out there to compete and get everything done.”

The 6-foot-3, 220-pounder was invited to tour campus afterward.

“The coaches hand-picked a couple of us for a tour right after,” he said. “The tradition there is just amazing.”

Oladipupo, who has early offers from Central Michigan, Western Michigan, Bowling Green and Ball State, was honored to be asked to stick around after camp.

“I would say privileged,” he said. “I felt amazing. It was just joy in my head the whole time. I was just happy. I was thanking God. In my head I'm thanking God for allowing me to showcase my talent and all that for allowing them to be able to notice me and pick me out to see that tour.”

Oladipupo would love to get back for a game in the fall.

“I'm looking forward to keeping in contact with the coaches and and then look forward to maybe another real visit. And then get contact with the head coach and then look forward to actually getting offered.”
