Highly-coveted 4-star recruit Paulson Adebo reopens commitment, with a favorite emerging

A big loss for the Irish.

Paulson Adebo — one of the most highly-touted recruits from the Class of 2017 — decommitted from Notre Dame, and a new favorite has emerged for the 4-star athlete from Mansfield, Texas.

Adebo had a serious change of heart because just about two weeks ago, he was all in on the Fighting Irish.

 

Adebo has offers from several powerhouses, including Texas, LSU, Georgia, Tennessee and Texas A&Mm and TCU could also be a sleeper. However, 247Sports' Crystal Ball projections have Adebo as "100 percent" committing to Stanford. This would be a huge commitment for Stanford coach David Shaw.

Adebo is listed at 6'2, 180 pounds, and he can play both wide receiver and cornerback. He is ranked as the No. 195 overall player in this recruiting class.
