On Monday night, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish got some fantastic news for its 2021 recruiting class. 4-Star Philip Riley decommited from the USC Trojans and gave his commitment to Notre Dame — again.
The 6’0” 195 pounder from Valrico Florida originally committed Notre Dame on May 5th, but just four months later he decommitted — only to give his pledge to Southern Cal just a few days later.
Notre Dame cornerbacks coach Mike Mickens never relented, and Riley stayed in contact with the Irish.
