Notre Dame 99-to-2: No. 9 Daelin Hayes, senior defensive end

Listed Measurements: 6-foot-3 ¾, 268 pounds.
2019-20 year, eligibility: A senior, Hayes enters his final season.
Depth chart: While senior Julian Okwara will get the starting honors at drop end, consider Hayes as much a starter. The two will certainly rotate as such.
Recruiting: The sole five-star prospect on Notre Dame’s current roster, per rivals.com, Hayes was chased by Ohio State, Michigan and Alabama. The No. 7 outside linebacker in the country and No. 31 player in the class, the U.S. Army All-American enrolled early, putting to bed any recruiting drama before the old-fashioned National Signing Day.
