It might be time to break out the panic button for running back recruiting for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Yesterday, while Notre Dame fans were joyously fist-pumping over a quarterback commitment for 2020, the Irish missed out on another of their top running back targets.
Cesare “Chez” Mellusi took a visit to see the Clemson Tigers, and he committed to them before he went home to Florida. Chez represented the best chance at running back the Irish have in this cycle.
It’s a story that is getting harder and harder to swallow.
