DJ Harvey out of DeMatha Catholic in Hyattsville, Maryland had plenty of offers prior to National Signing Day. The 4-star small forward had the attention of everyone across the country as he became the No. 1 recruit in the state of Maryland. But after a strong recruiting push from head coach Mike Brey and Notre Dame, the sharp shooter out of Alabama chose to take his talents to South Bend.
How Coach Brey pulled this talented all-around guard/forward was through determination. It wasn’t easy pulling Harvey out of his home state team of Alabama, but Brey made sure he grabbed the attention of this future Irish star.
