FOOTBALL RECRUITING BY ANDREW IVINS I n years past, Notre Dame's annual football awards show has been one of the premier recruiting weekends for the program. The Irish have used the banquet as a platform to secure the signatures of top targets like tight end Alizé Jones and offensive tackle Ronnie Stanley. While the 2015 version of the event didn't have as many uncommitted visi- tors as ones in the past, what it lacked in numbers was made up for in talent. Notre Dame welcomed arguably two of its top defensive targets to cam- pus the weekend of Dec. 11 for the awards show in Fresno (Calif.) Clovis West five-star linebacker Caleb Kelly and Old Tappan (N.J.) High four-star safety Jordan Fuller. Both of them — along with the nine Notre Dame com- mits also on hand for official visits — left with glowing reviews about the Irish. "It was real good," Fuller said when asked about the visit. "I was up there before for my unofficial in the sum- mer, but it was good to just get back there for a refresher and to hang out with some of the players." Fuller, who is ranked by Rivals as Two Top Talents Officially Visit For Football Awards Show Old Tappan (N.J.) High four-star safety Jordan Fuller called Notre Dame a "great place" after visiting the weekend of Dec. 11 for the football awards show. PHOTO BY ANDREW IVINS
