Notre Dame 99-to-2: No. 54 Jacob Lacey, consensus four-star defensive tackle, early enrollee

Listed Measurements: 6-foot-1 u215d, 294 pounds.
2019-20 year, eligibility: An early-enrolled freshman, Lacey has all four seasons of eligibility remaining, including 2019.
Depth chart: Lacey’s status goes hand-in-hand with the previous entry’s, sophomore Ja’Mion Franklin. With the latter injured, Lacey moves into the two-deep at nose tackle behind junior Kurt Hinish.
Recruiting: A consensus four-star prospect, Lacey was the first of Notre Dame’s signees to commit, way back in July of 2017, 17 months before he would send in his National Letter of Intent. The No. 21 defensive tackle in the class, Lacey chose the Irish over finalists of Clemson, Louisville, Michigan, Michigan State and Tennessee.
