With DT Darnell Ewell's Commitment, Notre Dame Now Needs 1 Major Target

Remember the Voltron cartoons? Remember how five lions formed to make a giant robot to battle the opponent in every episode?

Consider Notre Dame's Voltron nearly complete.

Emphasis on the word "nearly."

Many who follow college football recruiting will admit that Darnell Ewell's commitment to Notre Dame late Friday morning wasn't a huge surprise. What Ewell's announcement did, however, was give the Fighting Irish that big-name prospect to spearhead the defensive line. Although Notre Dame already had defensive linemen committed in 3-stars Kurt Hinish and Jonathon MacCollister, Ewell gives added pop to that defensive class as a national top-10 tackle and top-150 overall player.
