Another recruit will go off the board this evening, and the hope is that Notre Dame football will win out in his recruitment.
Jackson Vaughn, a 6-foot, 3-inch and 225-pound 2027 class edge rusher will make his verbal on at 6:30 p.m. EDT, as he’ll pick either the Irish, Auburn, LSU, Miami or South Carolina. He’s ranked by the 247Sports Composite as the No. 244 overall prospect, one that would look great in the Blue and Gold.
It does look like Notre Dame has a bit of an edge over the competition, as there is just one 247Sports Crystal Ball pick in favor of the Irish. The good news about that selection is that it’s from their National Recruiting Analyst Brian Dohn, who has an extremely high prediction rate, being correct 91.8% of the time.
Hopefully he is correct and Vaughn will join an already impressive 2027 recruiting class for Notre Dame.
