Just when I thought I could keep a distant eye on recruiting, because of the evilness of decommitments and shady tactics, Notre Dame became the lucky recipient of such events when Bennett Okotcha decommitted from Wisconsin and became an Irish commitment for the 2011 incoming class.
After a second glance, it is not quite as sinister as I may have eluded to (I am in no way stating that Notre Dame did anything that was shady in nature). First, Okotcha is a high school teammate of fellow Irish commit, Cam McDaniels. Second, he has honestly put education as a top priority when selecting a school- and he is not just paying lip-service.
Okotcha is a 3 star cornerback according to Rivals.com. His commitment brings the total number of commitments for this class back to 19. he is also the 3rd commitment from the state of Texas.
The class is starting to fill back up, and now we can start wondering about numbers and such. I’ll have a Recruiting Refresher post to get everyone up to speed for the next 2 moths of crazy shit that is about to go down. Until then, welcome to Notre Dame Bennett!!!
