## Resource

Notre Dame just pulled off a major recruiting coup with the commitment of four-star linebacker Roman Igwebuike, a 6’3”, 220-pound wrecking ball who chose the Irish over Clemson and Tennessee. Ranked 165th overall and 12th at his position by 247Sports, Igwebuike had a dominant junior season with over 115 tackles, 7 sacks, and interceptions. The Irish, after offering him in October, intensified their pursuit once Brian Jean-Mary took over linebackers coaching, culminating in his official visit last weekend. Now the 22nd commit in the 2027 class and Notre Dame’s first linebacker pledge, Igwebuike’s arrival could push the Irish from third to second nationally in recruiting rankings. Scouts rave about his instincts, physicality, and ability to be a three-down starter — a middle linebacker who reads the game, attacks weaknesses, and makes plays wherever he goes.
