Talk about the luck of the Irish for Marcus Freeman, the Notre Dame football head coach as the Fighting Irish got a Sunday commitment from Jerome Bettis Jr. on Sunday.<\/p>\n

From Woodward Academy (Atlanta, Georgia), Bettis is a three-star wide receiver. He also held offers from Arkansas<\/a>, Cal, Georgia Tech, Louisville, Missouri, NC State, Ole Miss, Purdue and Texas A&M<\/a> among others.<\/p>\n

Last year, he had 30 catches for 369 yards and four receiving touchdowns. At 6-foot-2 and 190 pounds, he is ranked the No. 83 wide receiver in the nation by 247Sports.<\/a><\/p>\n

Fitting that the Fighting Irish<\/a> landed a legacy player on St. Patrick’s Day. He is the son of former Notre Dame standout and Pro Football Hall of Fame running back Jerome Bettis.<\/p>\n

The commitment was broken on Sunday morning by On3 and later re-tweeted by the three-star athlete:<\/p>\n

Jerome Bettis, the father, is one of the best athletes ever to play at Notre Dame. During his time in South Bend, he set the Notre Dame single-season touchdown record<\/a> before becoming a first-round pick in the 1993 NFL draft.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
