Notre Dame Football: 2017 Freshman Breakdown – Jafar Armstrong

With zero true wide receivers committed in their ’17 class, Notre Dame staff pushed hard to flip Jafar Armstrong from his commitment to Missouri.

The record holder for receiving yards for Bishop Miege High School (3,744) and career touchdowns receptions in Kansas State history (45) will bring great toughness and deep threat ability to the receiving core for the Irish.

Notre Dame received his last official visit. He had visited Minnesota the weekend before. DelVaughn Alexander spent a lot of time with him previous to, and during, his time on campus just before National Signing Day.

Armstrong held 247 Sports Composite rankings of #254 overall, #33 wide receiver and #1 in the state of Kansas.
