Blake Hebert Commits to Notre Dame Football

Blake Hebert, a 4-star quarterback from Connecticut, has flipped his commitment from Clemson to Notre Dame for the 2025 recruiting class, marking a significant addition for the Fighting Irish. Hebert had initially pledged to Clemson in June 2023 but decided to join Notre Dame following the decommitment of fellow QB Deuce Knight. Hebert is currently ranked as the No. 29 quarterback and No. 3 prospect from Connecticut according to 247Sports. His commitment strengthens Notre Dame's class, which includes 12 other 4-star prospects, while Clemson's class faces challenges with three decommits since August. Hebert, who suffered a season-ending injury during the 2023 season, is expected to compete for the starting QB position with fellow recruit CJ Carr. The unexpected nature of his decision reflects Notre Dame's strong recruitment efforts and the impact of their coaching staff on Hebert's choice.
