Breaking:Notre Woman Terrains Responsibility from Four-Star Old Will Dark
Wallingford (Conn.) Choate Rosemary Hall class of 2025 offensive tackle Will Black is the latest prospect to commit to the University of Notre Dame. The 6-7, 295-pounder picked the Fighting Irish over Michigan, Alabama and Penn State.
In Black, Notre Dame landed a 247Sports three-star prospect, the No. 30 offensive tackle in the country and No. 1 recruit in Connecticut. The composite rankings list him as a four-star prospect, the No. 316 overall talent next cycle and the No. 29 player at his position.
Black recently visited Michigan in early December and most recently made his way to Notre Dame. Those two schools looked to be top contenders for the coveted prospect and it came as little surprise when he locked in the commitment date shortly after wrapping up both visits
Initially, Michigan seemed to have the edge. He had a tremendous visit to Ann Arbor, spent a lot of time with Sherrone Moore and things were trending in favor of the Wolverines. However, it’s clear the trip to South Bend was a game-changer. Joe Rudolph was able to get Black around the current offensive linemen and that may have made the biggest impact in the end.
This is a big win for Notre Dame and it add to an already strong group of commits already locked in to play for the Fighting Irish. Defensive back Ivan Taylor is 247Sports’ No. 33 overall player in the country, tight end James Flanigan is No. 116 overall, quarterback Deuce Knight is No. 139 nationally and edge-rusher CJ May is also inside the Top200 in the 2025 class. The 11 commits give Notre Dame one of the premier classes in the country
