Life can come at you fast. Just a few short weeks ago David Abiara, strong-side defensive end from Legacy High School in Mansfield, Texas didn’t even appear on Notre Dame’s radar.
Fast-forward just a couple short weeks later and the three-star defensive end has since made a visit to Notre Dame and put the Fighting Irish in his top seven school rankings.

Abiara has also received offers from Alabama, LSU and Texas A&M in the last ten days, all of which made that top-seven. Joining those three and Notre Dame among on list for Abiara are Baylor, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State.
Notre Dame defensive line coach Mike Elston visited and extended Abiara the scholarship offer on January 23 before, according to Mike Singer of Blue Gold Illustrated, special teams and recruiting coordinator Brian Polian visited the defensive end a week later.
Just days after that Abiara was on Notre Dame’s campus.
Abiara is ranked as the 41st best player in Texas for 2021 and the 19th highest strong-side defensive end in the nation on Rivals.
And if you were told a player who has already committed to Notre Dame’s 2021 class was taking to Twitter to help recruit Abiara, would it take you more than one guess to figure out who it was?

Surprising to nobody, Big Blake Fisher remains Notre Dame’s best unpaid recruiter.
