## Resource

Notre Dame football recruiting continues to surge with major crystal ball predictions for Brayden Parks and Julius Jones Jr., while Marcus Freeman and the Irish push for elite 2027 targets like Marcus Fakatou and Abraham Sesay amid concerns about Notre Dame’s future football schedules. Tyler Wojciak breaks down Notre Dame adding Stanford and Kent State to the future schedule, explains why the Stanford “rivalry” no longer feels the same, reacts to the outlook for the 2027 and 2028 schedules, and then dives into the latest recruiting intel surrounding Parks, Jones Jr., Fakatou, Sesay, Karnell James, and more as the Irish continue building what could become another elite recruiting class.
