Caleb Offord was one of four defensive backs to sign their National Letter of Intent to Notre Dame on Wednesday, adding depth to a unit that figures to be incredibly strong heading into the 2020 season.
Offord is a three-star recruit from Mississippi and listed at 6-1, 180 pounds. He chose Notre Dame’s offer over those from Oklahoma, Arkansas, Duke and Kentucky.

The Southaven, Mississippi native originally committed to Notre Dame on the Fourth of July this past summer and checks in as the 37th rated cornerback nationally and 13th best prospect in Mississippi this year according to 247Sports.
Offord intercepted seven passes between his junior and senior high school football seasons and recorded 66 tackles in that time.
Offord becomes Notre Dame’s first commitment from Mississippi during Brian Kelly’s ten years as head coach.
