Notre Dame picked up another huge – literally – commitment on Saturday for the class of 2023 when 4-star DL Devan Houstan, the #216 overall prospect in the country according to On3’s composite rankings, selected Notre Dame over Rutgers, Michigan, Pitt, and Northwestern. Checking in at 6’5″, 270 lbs already, Houstan figures to be the anchor of the interior defensive line in this cycle for the Irish.
Originally from Canada but boarding in the US at St. James School in Hagerstown, Maryland; Devan Houstan brings some position flexibility to Notre Dame’s impressive defensive line haul in 2023. Notre Dame has recruited Houstan to on the inside of the line at the nose tackle position, but he could also play defensive tackle and has played some strongside defensive end as well.
