Notre Dame waited until signing day to secure a solid commitment from a running back in its class of 2021, so to land a consensus four-star Texas running back’s pledge on Sunday evening marks a strong start to the class of 2022.
Jadarian Price (Denison High School; Texas), the No. 6 running back in the class and No. 210 prospect in the country per rivals.com, chose the Irish over Texas, Ohio State and Stanford just three weeks after Notre Dame offered him a scholarship.
“There’s one thing that really stands out and it’s just the mindset that they’re going to the College Football Playoffs every year,” Price told Irish Illustrated.
