Julius Jones Jr. Commits to Notre Dame

Julius Jones Jr., a top-rated 2027 wide receiver from South Florida, just committed to Notre Dame — sealing a major recruiting win after Miami and Oregon passed him by. The announcement came live on “The Pat McAfee Show,” and his younger brother Andre, a 2028 safety, committed to the Irish at the same time, making this a family affair. Julius Sr., their dad, played for Notre Dame in the late 90s and had a seven-year NFL career — deep Irish roots run through the family. Jones Jr. exploded on the scene last season with 876 yards and 14 TDs, helping his team win a state title. While Miami missed out on their top local target, they still landed another big receiver, Nick Lennear, keeping their 2027 WR class strong.
