## Resource

Notre Dame just landed three elite 2027 recruits—Julius Jones Jr., Segun Alexander, and Albert Simien—boosting their class score to 92.732 and vaulting them to No. 2, just behind Texas A&M’s 94.003. While the Aggies lead with more top-100 talent, Notre Dame edges them with a higher average recruit rating and fewer lower-ranked commits. With the top spot still up for grabs—and a chance to end a 20-year drought of back-to-back top-five classes—Coach Freeman’s squad is laser-focused on flipping a five-star to steal the crown.
