00:00Notre Dame football has been on quite a recruiting tear recently including top 100 running back
00:05Javion Osborne over the weekend the momentum doesn't stop here let's predict the next three
00:10commitments in the 2026 class for the fighting Irish. Ryan Roberts from A to C sports breaking
00:19down everything Notre Dame football folks if you have not been paying attention close attention
00:24over the last few days Notre Dame has been on quite a roll on the recruiting trail for the
00:292026 class last Friday they received a commitment from four-star linebacker out of the state of Ohio
00:35St. Xavier Cincinnati Ohio to be specific Jacoby Clapper had offers from Ohio State Oregon Michigan
00:42just about everybody have some of the big powers across college football but they got an even
00:47bigger one this past Saturday when top 100 running back out of the state of Texas for any Texas
00:53Javion Osborne opted for the Irish over finalist Michigan oh so sweet to beat the Wolverines on
01:00the recruiting trail once again well let's keep it going folks the momentum is not going to stop here
01:06I'm going to predict the next three commitments in the 2026 class for Notre Dame recently at A to Z sports
01:11I did a five players that you should expect and my predictions for being the next members of the
01:172026 class for Notre Dame only going to give you three but if you want to go back to A to Z sports the
01:22the description it's going to be in there the link to my article you can see the two players that I did
01:27not include in this video let's start with number one the guy that I feel most confident in today
01:32and because we have a firm timeline on it and that is best drop Texas defensive tackle Tiki Hola who is
01:40set to make his college decision on May 10th he's going to be deciding between the fighting Irish between
01:45the SMU Mustangs and the USC Trojans this one is considered a Notre Dame versus SMU battle for the
01:52six foot two 285 pound defensive tackle I love where Notre Dame is on this one this young man is exactly
01:58what Notre Dame needs more of impact run stoppers on the college level this kid will be over 300
02:04pounds before too long he led the team put this in the context as a nose tackle an interior defensive
02:10lineman he led the team with over 100 tackles as a junior this is one of the better run stopping
02:15defensive tackles in the 2026 recruiting class I feel good about where the Irish are heading in to
02:21that decision number two on the list I want to throw out this young man I haven't talked about
02:24him on this channel before I've written about him a ton but I don't think I've talked about him
02:27specifically on this channel Evan Jacobson 2026 tight end out of Waukee Iowa six foot seven 220 pounds
02:34people love comps out there that immediately the person that I thought of when I watched this young
02:38man was Kyle Rudolph obviously former fighting Irish great big frame physical kid he can play
02:44in line but he's got that really high upside to be about 250 plus pounds to play in line play attached
02:51and to utilize his catch radius to win down the field in the short intermediate game and I do think
02:58he has some seam running ability now he's not the most flexible athlete of all time so I think he's
03:02going to be more of a linear winner but with that type of frame I don't really care about that you're
03:06not going to run routes great at that size naturally but this young man I think is going
03:10to be an impact tight end in line on the next level like where Notre Dame is on this one there's been
03:15predictions flying anywhere and I can verify that I feel very good about where Notre Dame is with
03:20Evan Jacobson there is no timeline as far as when an exact commitment date will be but if it happens
03:26anytime soon anything gets announced any decisions get made I like where things are with Evan Jacobson
03:32the last one and probably one of the most underrated players in this class is Nick Reddish
03:36who is a 5'11 185 pound safety out of Charlotte North Carolina independence had a dynamic sophomore
03:43year in 2023 unfortunately was was dealt with an injury in 2024 that stood for the most of the season
03:49so he wasn't able to take like that monumental step because he just didn't play enough football
03:53but he still has a pretty nice offer list and I love where Notre Dame has been with Nick for a long
03:58long time thought if not for the injury this one may have been done a little bit sooner because
04:02Notre Dame probably would have pushed a little bit harder kind of waiting for what that recovery looks
04:06like but it sounds like things are in a great spot like where Notre Dame is if anything gets announced
04:12anytime soon I like where they are for Nick Reddish make sure go to A to Z sports right now go look at
04:17the rest of my article on the next five predictions that I have for the 2026 recruiting class put in the
