Commit Number 23 Nyles Morgan
ILB Nyles Morgan 6′ 2″ 230 lb. from the Chicago area selects Notre Dame and bumps the class up to 23. ND right now is basically out of spots and any further add on’s would impact certain players hoping for a 5th year.
Morgan is a 4-5 Star recruit and joins Greer Martini and Nile Sikes to fill the depleted ILB positions. Jarrett Grace would be the only starter at ILB – if he recovers from a broken leg. So Morgan could get early playing time and if current redshirt Michael Deeb can grab the spot opposite Grace in the Spring, the Irish can work in 1-2 of the freshman into the mix and build some depth.
WR/DB Isaiah McKenzie – speed – is just awaiting the academic ok and that could complete this class. OT Braden Smith still out there–just can’t get enough OL, so I would make a spot for him.
