Report: Irish might be adding OL Jurkovic

Notre Dame’s 2016 recruiting class took a hit when defensive end Bo Wallace didn’t arrive in South Bend. And it looks like Brian Kelly and company could be evaluating a late addition to make up for it—and one with a hometown (and home team) connection.

Irish Illustrated reports that South Bend native Mirko Jurkovic Jr. could join Notre Dame’s freshman class after not enrolling at Ohio State this summer. Jurkovic was a four-star prospect who played the majority of his high school football at St. Joseph’s in South Bend before finishing his career at the IMG Academy in Florida.
