Notre Dame’s defensive recruiting continues to add 4-star prospects to its 2022 haul adding 4-star corner Jaden Mickey out of California on Sunday. The Irish defensive coaching staff, with an assist from Brian Polian, added Mickey as the first defensive back recruit in the class in what might not be the only 4-star commitment for Notre Dame this week.
Jaden Mickey (6′”0, 175 lbs) is a composite 4-star prospect from Corona, California and Centennial High School – the prep alma mater of recently-graduated Notre Dame wide receiver, Javon McKinley. He had a final four that included Cal, Northwestern, and Oregon in addition to the Irish.
