As we found out on Monday morning, it seemed like Notre Dame football had a great chance to flip Boston College 2025 running back commit [autotag]Nolan James[/autotag].
Well, it didn’t take long for that to happen, as the 5-foot, 11-inch and 200-pound back changed his commitment to the Irish on Monday evening. He’s the second running back in the class, joining Justin Thurman.
While being ranked as the nation’s No. 986 overall prospect according to the 247Sports Composite Rankings, James shouldn’t be viewed as a fallback option. He is a quality prospect, one that holds a lower ranking due to the question of his position.
It no doubt that the visit this past weekend pushed James over the edge to verbal to Notre Dame, it was a raucous environment with Florida State in town for a prime time game.
You have to believe that this isn’t the end for flips in the class, as the Irish have other prospects they are working on to join the 2025 class.
