Notre Dame’s 2024 class holding steady in top 10 of Industry Team Recruiting Rankings
After Notre Dame landed a commitment Sept. 19 from West Roxbury (Mass.) Catholic Memorial’s Guerby Lambert, the nation’s No. 51 overall player and No. 4 offensive tackle according to the 2024 On3 Industry Ranking, the Irish jumped from No. 14 to No. 8 in the 2024 Industry Ranking Football Team Recruiting Rankings.

In the past month since Lambert gave his pledge to the Irish, Notre Dame has not added any additional class of 2024 commitments. One would think that Notre Dame may have slid down a spot or two in the team rankings during this period because other programs would surely have added new pledges and passed up the Irish.
But that’s not the case. Notre Dame currently has the No. 7 class in America.
This is partly thanks to the way On3 sets up their team rankings (more on that shortly), which is superior in the market in this writer’s opinion. But it’s also due to the various rankings websites updating their rankings and them being mostly positive for Notre Dame’s commits.
A couple weeks ago, Glen Ellyn (Ill.) Glenbard South class of 2024 wide receiver and Notre Dame commit Cam Williams had five-star status attached to his name.
247 Sports updated its 2024 recruiting rankings, and although Williams moved up just five spots in the national list, it was enough to raise his spot in the On3 Industry Ranking to have him become a five-star prospect.
