Notre Dame Football: How Irish's Top Commits Performed This Weekend

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish football program is well on its way toward another successful national signing day, securing 15 commitments in a 2016 recruiting class that slots in 18th overall in 247Sports' composite rankings.

The Fighting Irish annually attract elite athletes from across the United States (and beyond borders when you factor in Canadian wide receiver Chase Claypool, a 2016 commit). This cycle has been no different, as head coach Brian Kelly claims verbal pledges from eight different states.

Multiple members of the group gave their high school teams a boost during the weekend, delivering premier performances.
