The Notre Dame Fighting Irish added a big piece of depth along the defensive line on Wednesday. The Irish went into the transfer portal and received a commitment from Harvard DL Chris Smith.
Smith is a 6’2” 300 pounder from Cranbrook Schools in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan (yes, THAT Cranbrook that Eminem made famous for Clarence and his real good parent marriage in the cinematic masterpiece 8 Mile).
Smith originally committed to the Minnesota Golden Gophers as a transfer this offseason, but Al Washington and Marcus Freeman put in the work to secure Smith’s spot on this team.
