Notre Dame is aggressively working to bolster its roster at wide receiver, defensive back, defensive line, and tight end and hopes to secure additions at those positions sooner rather than later. Key prospects to watch include wide receiver Kaydon Finley, defensive lineman Elijah Golden, tight ends Ian Premer and Evan Jacobsen, and safeties Joey O’Brien and Nick Reddish—names that Fighting Irish fans should keep on their radar.
Recruiting momentum is expected to ramp up significantly in June, with several potential commitments likely from this group and beyond. Among them, three-star safety Nick Reddish from Charlotte, NC, stands out as the only current target with a set announcement date he’s expected to make his decision on July 11. Reddish has been leaning toward Notre Dame for some time, and all signs point to the Irish being in a strong position.
Other prospects with commitment dates include defensive linemen Alistair Vallejo and McHale Blade, and wide receiver Devin Fitzgerald, though Notre Dame currently trails in second or third place for each.
June promises to be a pivotal month, with daily visit activity ramping up. Top defensive line targets Khary Wilder and Elijah Golden, along with elite wide receivers Cohen Brown and Kaydon Finley, are all scheduled to take official visits to South Bend.
Campus visits remain Notre Dame’s most effective recruiting tool. Once a player visits and is deemed a good fit, the Irish often gain ground quickly. Expect a flurry of activity in the coming weeks, especially as Notre Dame continues to lead in the race for Nick Reddish and several other key recruits.
