Just as Notre Dame says goodbye to one Okwara sibling, they’ll welcome another.
Julian Okwara committed to the Irish on Tuesday evening. The 6-foot-4, 220-pound defensive end from Charlotte is following in his brother’s footsteps, committing to Notre Dame and ending his recruitment early.
Okwara chose the Irish over finalists Ole Miss, Clemson, Georgia and Michigan.
He released the following statement via Twitter:
After many months of research and visits I have decided to commit to play football at the University of Notre Dame. Notre Dame felt like the right place for more to be academically and as a football player.
