After getting some potentially great news earlier this weekend when Houston Griffith decommitted from Florida State shortly after an in-home visit from Notre Dame DB coach Todd Lyght, the Irish got some bad news on Saturday. Markese Stepp, the first commitment in the class of 2018 and one of the most prolific recruit recruiters Notre Dame has had, has decided to decommit from Notre Dame and reconsider his options.
Stepp announced his decision over Twitter on Saturday night.
Given Stepp’s recruiting efforts over the last 18 months, the news probably came as a shock to most Notre Dame fans.
