Notre Dame Lands 2027 QB Teddy Jarrard

Notre Dame landed a key commitment from four-star 2027 quarterback Teddy Jarrard of North Cobb High School in Georgia, out-recruiting top programs like Georgia, Ohio State, Michigan, and Penn State. Jarrard, who is nationally ranked between No. 2 and No. 18 depending on the recruiting service, posted 2,752 yards and 31 touchdowns as a sophomore and earned MVP honors at the Rivals Five-Star Challenge. Notre Dame delayed quarterback offers until June and only extended two, making Jarrard their priority and centerpiece for the 2027 class. His commitment is Notre Dame's third for 2027, joining linebacker Ellis McGaskin and long snapper Sean Kraft. Jarrard is recognized for his size, intelligence, leadership, and work ethic, with his high school coach comparing him to Tom Brady. His early decision is expected to bolster Notre Dame's recruiting momentum for the class.
