Jorden Edmunds picking Alabama over Georgia, Tennessee, and other major programs was just the beginning for the Crimson Tide. After a slow start, I have a couple of recruiting predictions that favor Kalen DeBoer’s program, especially within the state of Alabama.The Notre Dame Fighting Irish have tremendous running back recruits heavily weighing their options to play for the Golden Domers, but which one commits first? Also, does that first running back commitment place pressure on the other recruits

Notre Dame head coach Marcus Freeman must decide between quarterbacks Steve Angeli, Kenny Minchey, and CJ Carr.
