SOUTH BEND — The Brunswick School Pipeline flows again for Notre Dame football.
Monday evening brought word that four-star quarterback Blake Hebert had flipped from his longstanding Clemson commitment to pledge his way from Greenwich, Conn., into the 2025 recruiting class for Notre Dame.
At 6-foot-3 and 205 pounds, Hebert is a dual-threat talent ranked among the top 30 senior quarterbacks in this cycle. He follows Bruins teammates Matty Augustine (offensive tackle) and Ethan Long (safety) into a signing class that now ranks 13th nationally, according to 247Sports Composite.
First-year Notre Dame athletic director Pete Bevacqua is a former Brunswick School valedictorian and three-sport standout in football, basketball and golf.
Both Augustine (6-7, 290) and Long (6-2, 185) are three-star recruits who have been committed to Notre Dame since last winter. Along with Hebert, they have the Bruins off to a 5-0 start after Saturday’s 35-7 win over Suffolk Academy.
Hebert was 10 of 19 for 147 yards passing and two touchdowns in the win. He added 119 yards, including a 91-yard touchdown, on the ground.

Ricky Hebert, Blake’s father, is a former Arena Football League quarterback for the Arkansas Twisters who played college football at American International College in Springfield, Mass.
