Notre Dame has five 2020 commits in the Rivals100 and a total of eight commits in the Rivals250. Some highly ranked players in the class show the potential to be ranked even higher, and there are some lower ranked commits who should get a big bump, at least that is what the BGI staff feels.

XAVIER WATTS, WIDE RECEIVER: Rivals ranks Omaha wide receiver Zavier Betts as the No. 1 player in the state and the No. 46 player in the country. It ranks another Omaha receiver, Xavier Watts, as the No. 2 player in the state, but he's a middle of the road three-star recruit according to Rivals. That is a far cry from where I rank Watts, who graded out as a Top 100 caliber recruit on my board.
