When [autotag]Notre Dame[/autotag] missed on Texas linebacker Payton Pierce, head coach [autotag]Marcus Freeman[/autotag] had to find another prospect to take that spot in the 2024 class.
Freeman found him. Georgia linebacker [autotag]Cole Mullins[/autotag] committed to the Irish prior to the Blue and Gold game. The athlete, who also plays defensive end and tight end, stands 6 feet, 4 inches and weighs 240 pounds. He has great size for the position.
Mullins is ranked as an edge player, the 43rd at his position and 647th overall according to the 247Sports composite, but his offer list shows he’s a much better player than his ranking.
It’s a great start to a very important recruiting weekend. Mullins is the 10th commit in the 2024 cycle and the first linebacker.
