Notre Dame Football: Predicting where top targets commit on National Signing Day

National Signing Day is almost upon us and here’s how Notre Dame football will finish off the 2018 class. Who will Brian Kelly and the Irish land?

Brian Kelly and the Fighting Irish had a successful 2017 season, based off preseason expectations. Notre Dame was coming off a 4-8 campaign and the head coach was squarely on the hot seat, but his team defied the odds and put together a 10-3 record.

National Signing Day is now approaching with the Irish looking to finish strong and hold on to a spot in the top-10 team rankings. The 2018 class is already impressive, but it’s not finished just yet.

How will Notre Dame finish off its 2018 recruiting class?

Notre Dame could be looking to add another cornerback on National Signing Day and one of the top remaining targets in four-star Noah Boykin from Washington D.C.

The 6-foot-2, 170-pound cornerback already possesses impressive size for the position and his athleticism is evident. He’s a solid athlete who can stay hip-to-hip with his receiver and play lockdown defense. He’ll be a strong competitor wherever he ends up.

However, it doesn’t look like the Fighting Irish have the momentum with him as his official visit to South Bend was back in October and he visited his current favorite, the Florida Gators, back on Jan. 19. He was committed to Maryland during that visit and de-committed just five days later.

For that reason, I’m going to say the nation’s No. 291 overall prospect and 25th-best cornerback picks Florida.
