The Irish fill a major need with a front court commitment from a player who was previously committed to Billy Donovan's Florida Gators.
It's no secret that, with the TJ Gibbs already in the fold, Notre Dame Fighting Irish head coach Mike Brey is hot after some front court prospects to fill out his 2016 class. Once power forward John Mooney ended his two year commitment to Florida following Billy Donovan's jump to the NBA from the Gators, Mike Brey pounced on Mooney to fill one of those spots.
Donovan actually recommended Brey's system to the family, and a visit to South Bend soon materialized.
