Notre Dame has decided against adding any players from the 2022 recruiting class who could be eligible to play this fall, following recent legal decisions. This includes Junior Tuihalamaka, who has committed to LSU.
According to ESPN, Notre Dame won't be pursuing the addition of any 2022 recruits at this time. The decision stems from recent legal rulings impacting eligibility, effectively closing the window for these players to join the team for the upcoming season.
Freeman stated, “It’s too late,” regarding the possibility of adding players. This comment specifically references the situation with Junior Tuihalamaka, a recruit who ultimately committed to LSU. The statement suggests that the timing, due to the legal landscape, no longer allows for the integration of these athletes before the fall season begins.
The decision means Notre Dame will move forward with its current roster and incoming freshmen who are already committed and on track to join the team this fall. The university has apparently determined that the logistical and eligibility hurdles are too significant to overcome at this late stage in the offseason.
