Top QB Recruit C.J. Carr Picks Notre Dame with National Title in Mind

C.J. Carr was born into the game of football.

It should come as little surprise the quarterback, grandson of national-championship-winning Michigan coach Lloyd Carr, has carved out a path of his own in the football world. Prepping at Saline (Mich.) High School, Carr amassed some 20 scholarship offers before going public with a commitment on Thursday evening.

The next Carr to make his mark on college football will do so at Notre Dame, he told Sports Illustrated this week.

"I think I really connected with the coaching staff right when I got on campus for the first time," Carr says of his decision to choose the Fighting Irish.
