Notre Dame Football: Irish land highly touted 2020 edge rusher

After a visit to with the Notre Dame football program this past weekend, Jordan Botelho headed back to Hawaii extremely high on the Irish but not committed and wanted to possibly take a few more visits before making a commitment.

That changed very quickly, as Botelho officially committed to Notre Dame Thursday afternoon, less than a week after his visit to South Bend.

He was all in on the Irish and just didn’t want to wait any longer. Botelho is listed as a linebacker but the Irish staff are recruiting him as a drop defensive end. During his junior season of high school, he had more than 15 sacks and over 13 tackles for loss according to his Hudl profile.
