Ellis McGaskin, a 4-star 2027 linebacker, commits to Notre Dame

When you are hot, you are hot, and Notre Dame football recruiting is certainly hot.

The Irish have added multiple prospects to its 2026 recruiting class, and have now started its journey with the 2027 cycle. Long snapper Sean Kraft was the first recruit to verbal to Notre Dame, but the first position player to make his pledge to the Irish is linebacker Ellis McGaskin, who made his choice on Monday afternoon.

The 6-foot, 1-inch and 190-pounder picked Notre Dame over LSU and Ohio State, giving the Irish another great start to another class. McGaskin is ranked as the No. 209 overall prospect of the 2027 class by the 247Sports Composite, and could see his stock rise over the coming months.

Notre Dame made the offer to McGaskin in mid-March, as that was enough for him to want to join one of the trendiest programs in the country. The Irish showed everyone last year, they can compete for championships while getting one of the best educations nationally.
