Notre Dame football delivered a resounding College Football Recruiting win on June 25 by landing quarterback Trey Tagliaferri . But that victory on the trail lasted not even a week. Coach Marcus Freeman and his staff now must look elsewhere as the four-star Tagliaferri has decommitted.
The New Jersey signal-caller confirmed his decommit decision to Hayes Fawcett of On3/Rivals Wednesday. While ND is still putting touches on its 2027 class and still has a ways to go with 2028, this is still a key loss. Plus the first pivotal recruiting loss for the next cycle involving the Fighting Irish .
The Bergen Catholic High QB already ranks as the nation's No. 11 passer per Rivals Industry Rankings. He's also the outlet's No. 6 overall talent in the state of New Jersey. Meanwhile, 247Sports lists Tagliaferri as New Jersey's 10th-ranked talent but also the No. 19 QB prospect.
The 6-foot-2 Tagliaferri is one of the nation's most coveted prospects for the '28 cycle. ND isn't the only blue blood program pursuing him.
Rutgers represents one local opportunity in his possession, which places Tagliaferri in the Big Ten should he stay local. Penn State also is aiming to land him right away. SEC powers Alabama and Ole Miss represent two more distinguished offers at his disposal.
However, another SEC powerhouse appears ready to swoop up Tagliaferri. The Oklahoma Sooners are now trending to land him , with On3/Rivals' prediction machine handing OU a 93.3% chance to receive a verbal commitment from him.
Oklahoma eventually must replace John Mateer behind center, who will soon lead a 2025 College Football Playoff team back onto the field. Notre Dame , meanwhile, holds the No. 2 ranked 2027 class per On3 and 247Sports.
