Irish win over Elliott

Notre Dame commitment Jalen Elliott was in South Bend last weekend to watch his future teammates dominate Texas.

Jalen Elliott committed to Notre Dame in June, but that didn’t stop the Irish staff from sweetening the deal during an unofficial visit last weekend.

Elliott, a 6-foot-1, 181-pound athlete from L.C. Bird High School in Chesterfield, Va., led his team to a win on Friday then drove to South Bend to catch the Irish opener against Texas. He arrived on campus early enough Saturday to enjoy a special lunch.

“When we first got there we got to chill in the players’ lounge and got to meet some of the players who were on their official visits,” Elliott said.
