Notre Dame Lands Top Edge Rusher Prescott | Notre Dame Fighting Irish Football News

Notre Dame just pulled off a major recruiting coup with the commitment of Darieon Prescott, a towering 6-foot-4, 250-pound edge rusher ranked among the nation’s top defensive prospects. He chose the Fighting Irish over Oregon and Texas A&M, solidifying Notre Dame’s reputation as a top destination for elite defensive talent. Already making waves as a sophomore with sacks, tackles, and fumble recoveries, Prescott’s athleticism as a three-sport athlete makes him a rare find. His strong rapport with defensive line coach Charlie Partridge helped seal the deal. This commitment boosts Notre Dame’s 2028 class and adds to their already impressive 2027 defensive line haul, currently ranked second nationally. With Prescott now the third commit in the 2028 class, the Irish are clearly building a dominant defense from the ground up — and the recruiting staff is clearly doing their job right.
