West Orange safety Ivan Taylor committed to Notre Dame last December, most believed that was the end of the story. Taylor, who is one of the more dynamic defensive backs in the class, seems to exemplify everything that a “Notre Dame man” stands for.

N.J. football stars and Notre Dame have proven to be a good match over the years. The Fighting Irish landed their latest standout from the Garden State on Monday night. DePaul senior Nolan James Jr. took to social media to announce he’s flipping his commitment from Boston College to Notre Dame.

Thomas Davis Jr., a four-star linebacker and the son of three-time Pro Bowler Thomas Davis, has committed to Notre Dame.
