Another Notre Dame football commit shines on basketball court

The Irish are recruiting not just football players, but impressive athletes

It’s not just Notre Dame commits that are making waves on the basketball court, it’s also Irish signees.

We highlighted 2025 quarterback commit Deuce Knight having a personal slam dunk contest, but 2024 signee [autotag]Leonard Moore[/autotag] said “hold my beer.”

The 6-foot, 2-inch and 175-pound corner also showed off his elite athleticism with a warmup dunk for his Round Rock high school team. Moore was ranked as one of the top Notre Dame signees, ranking as the No. 33 corner and 392nd overall recruit according to the 247Sports Composite Rankings.

Unfortunately, Notre Dame will have to wait until the fall for Moore to begin his career, as he isn’t one of the signees who will enroll early.

Notre Dame trending for Texas cornerback

Notre Dame looking to continue to change their Texas narrative

It appears Notre Dame has made a strong connection with 2024 cornerback [autotag]Leonard Moore[/autotag].  Moore, a three-star prospect from Round Rock, Texas, has been given a three crystal ball predictions of committing to Notre Dame.  All three were given on the morning of January 31.

Moore is listed at 6-2, 177-pounds and has offers from 15 different programs on a list that includes the likes of Oregon, TCU, and Wisconsin. Playing in the best high school football state in the nation, he is coming off a junior year that saw him named a Texas District 25-6A unanimous first-team selection.

Notre Dame currently has seven commitments in the 2024 recruiting class.  Just two of those seven are expected to play defense for the Irish; defensive end [autotag]Owen Wafle[/autotag] of Princeton, New Jersey and cornerback [autotag]Carson Hobbs[/autotag] of Moeller in Cincinnati.

FIW Exclusive: Interview with Notre Dame commit Cam Williams, Part III

Hear from one of Notre Dame’s top 2024 commits.

[autotag]Cam Williams[/autotag] is a four-star receiver commit in Notre Dame’s 2024 recruiting class. He is the state of Illinois’ second-best recruit in that class according to 247Sports. He also happens to attend Glenbard South in Glen Ellyn, my alma mater. To say the least, it’s been great to have him represent the same school community I once did as a student and continue to do as an alumnus.

I had the opportunity to see him play his most recent game, and he scored two touchdowns. One of them came on this 62-yard run that I captured myself from the top of the bleachers. This run is a perfect indication that he once was a running back:

I had a chance to speak with Williams after the game, making this the third time he has spoken with this site. I did it once last year, and our own Michael Chen did the other interview not long before. Here’s what what he to say:

Notre Dame’s 2024 recruiting class commitments

Who is next?

The 2023 recruiting cycle has not yet signed, but that doesn’t mean the Irish are waiting for that class to fill up. [autotag]Marcus Freeman[/autotag] is already working hard on the 2024 class, and here are the current commitments for that class in order. (This list will be updated as more prospects pledge to Notre Dame.)

Scouts view: Notre Dame’s newest ‘24 commit, cornerback Leonard Moore

The Irish add yet another impressive member to their secondary

Amid the news that offensive coordinator [autotag]Tommy Rees[/autotag] is leaving for Alabama, [autotag]Notre Dame [/autotag] football is still moving forward with the program.

[autotag]Marcus Freeman[/autotag] knows that coaches moving is a normal part of the process at major college football, so this doesn’t stop the Irish at all. They will continue to do what they have been doing and today it showed when they gained a commitment from 2024 Texas cornerback [autotag]Leonard Moore[/autotag].

The six-foot-two-inch and 177-pound defensive back chose the Irish over offers from Oregon, TCU, Colorado, Baylor and others. He becomes the eighth member of the class, and the second member of the secondary, assuming that athlete commit [autotag]Aneyas Williams[/autotag] ends up as a running back.

After reviewing his junior film, Moore brings a unique set of skills to South Bend. Find out below my scouts view on what Notre Dame is getting from their most recent commitment.

Notre Dame football: Trending 2024 target sets commitment date

You have to like Notre Dame’s chances here…

It was just a day ago that we told you about Notre Dame cornerback target [autotag]Leonard Moore[/autotag] and the Irish seeming to be trending nicely for him.  Well it would appear that a commitment doesn’t seem far off.

[lawrence-related id=68593]

Moore has told 247Sports that he will announce his commitment this coming Saturday at 12 p.m. ET.

Along with Notre Dame, Arizona, Arizona State, California, Colorado, Duke, Houston, Kansas State, Missouri, Oregon, TCU, Tulsa, UTSA, Vanderbilt and Washington State have all offered the Texas product.

If Notre Dame is to land Moore it would make him the second cornerback in their 2024 recruiting class, joining [autotag]Karson Hubbs[/autotag] of Moeller in Cincinnati.  It’s incredibly early but 247Sports currently ranks Notre Dame as having the fourth best recruiting class nationally in 2024.
