Notre Dame football was already trending to add 2025 wide receiver [autotag]Jerome Bettis Jr.[/autotag], but the momentum is gaining for the Irish to add the legacy recruit.
We all know his father, “The Bus” was a fixture of the Irish offense during the 1991 and 1992 seasons, setting record 23 total touchdowns during his sophomore year. His son doesn’t play the same position, but at 6-foot, 1-inch and 190-pounds, Jr. is a very solid receiver prospect.
Bettis Jr. is ranked as the No. 88 player at his position and 575th overall according to the 247Sports Composite Rankings, and recently Anna Adams has joined Steve Wiltfong and Tom Loy in crystal ball projecting him to play where his father did, in South Bend.

Notre Dame has dominated recruiting former Irish players and former NFL stars sons. It looks like that will continue with Bettis Jr.
