Notre Dame 99-to-2: No. 16 K.J. Wallace, freshman defensive back, three-star

Listed Measurements: 5-foot-10, 187 pounds.
2019-20 year, eligibility: A freshman, Wallace has all four seasons of eligibility remaining, including 2019.
Depth chart: Wallace could conceivably see time at nickel — if fifth-year Shaun Crawford does not reach full health and if junior Avery Davis’ move to defensive back proves ineffective — but it is more likely Wallace exits preseason practices as third- or fourth-string at field cornerback and spends the fall largely working on scout team.
Recruiting: Wallace committed way back in January of 2018, waiting 10 months before National Signing Day, but never wavering during that time despite Stanford, Penn State and Tennessee pursuing the rivals.
