Notre Dame football didn’t just win on the field this weekend, they won on the recruiting trail as well.

The Irish got three commitments over the weekend all in the 2028 class with defensive end Asa Burch and running back Zaiden Jernigan committing before the victory over Miami, and linebacker Julian Bruno verballing on Sunday.

Early success for the group is great to see, as the group now totals six commitments. It’s the highest number in the class, which has helped them rise to the No. 2 ranked class according to the 247Sports composite team totals. Only Ohio State has a better collection of talent, but it is still very early in the cycle.

Right now the 2027 class is ranked No. 4, and the 2026 group was No. 6. If the 2028 group holds close to

where it’s ranked right now, Notre Dame would have three-straight years with a top-10 recruiting class. Impressive results on-and-off the field for head coach Marcus Freeman.
