Notre Dame’s recruiting hot streak continued this weekend and extended into the class of 2019. Jacob Lacey, a 4-star interior defensive lineman in the class of 2019, joined the part on Saturday by announcing his commitment to Notre Dame. Lacey selected the Irish over other finalists Clemson, Michigan, Michigan State, Louisville, and Tennessee.
Lacey is already listed at 6’2″, 300 lbs heading into his junior season at SOuth Warren High School in Bowling Green, Kentucky. In addition to his finalists, he already held and offer from Penn State and had gotten interest from Ohio State and Stanford.
While the timing may have been a bit surprising, Lacey committing to Notre Dame should not be.
