An in-depth look at 2019 Defensive Tackle Commit Hunter Spears.

2019 defensive tackle commit Hunter Spears is an exciting prospect. The 6-4, 280-pound 4-star athlete out of Sachse, Texas is a part of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish's continuous process of upgrading the defensive line recruiting.

In evaluating Spears, you have to look back to his sophomore film, due to his missing the 2017 season with an injury. Even with this issue, it is easy to see why the Irish are so high on him and why he has a 4-star rating going into the 2018 season. Spears is a complete defensive line prospect, with the potential to evolve into a dominant force on the Fighting Irish defense.
