For months we have been waiting to see where Notre Dame football 2025 quarterback [autotag]Deuce Knight[/autotag] would ultimately end up.
Unfortunately, the smoke to the Auburn Tigers was true, as the lefty flipped his verbal from the Irish on Wednesday evening. This is a big blow to Notre Dame’s efforts in the cycle, as they do not have another quarterback commitment as of right now.
The nation’s No. 29 overall prospect according to the 247Sports Composite Rankings had just officially visited the Tigers this past weekend. He never made it back to South Bend following his official visit in mid-June.
Knight was at the head of multiple prospects in-class recruitment, but he will not join any of them playing for the Irish. With the news, Notre Dame’s 247Sports Composite class ranking took a hit, going from No. 10 to No. 13.
It won’t easy for the Irish to replace Knight, as the majority of top quarterback prospects have already made their decisions. We will see how head coach [autotag]Marcus Freeman[/autotag] and offensive coordinator [autotag]Mike Denbrock[/autotag] handle the situation.
