Notre Dame shoots into the top 10 in 2024 Industry Team Recruiting Rankings
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish’s 2024 class entered Tuesday with the nation’s No. 14 class according to the 2024 Industry Ranking Football Team Recruiting Rankings. By the end of the day, it catapulted into the top 10.
West Roxbury (Mass.) Catholic Memorial’s Guerby Lambert, the nation’s No. 54 overall player and No. 4 offensive tackle according to the 2024 On3 Industry Ranking, announced his long-awaited pledge to Notre Dame over Boston College, Harvard and Ohio State. Lambert also held offers from the likes of Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Florida State, LSU, Michigan and many others.

Lambert’s commitment pushed Notre Dame from No. 14 to No. 8 in the team rankings. While it was and still is very tight in the 8-14 range of the team rankings (only .323 separates ND and No. 14 Auburn), this is a nice reminder for Irish fans just how good this recruiting class is for the Irish.
If Notre Dame’s current No. 8 position holds on signing day, it would mark three straight classes inside the top-10 of the team rankings, which the Irish have not done since 2006-08.
Georgia, Ohio State, Florida, Alabama, Texas A&M, Florida State and Tennessee are ahead of Notre Dame in the team rankings, respectively. LSU and Oklahoma are on the Irish heels to round out the top 10.
ND has 23 commitments; 14 of them rank as four-star players and the other nine are three-star prospects per the On3 Industry Ranking.
