Notre Dame football officially out of bizarre recruitment after awkward sequence and commitment day plans finalized

There appears to have been some pressure from Quinn’s family to try and take that trip to South Bend, with some very pro Notre Dame people being in his support system. In the end, the family wanted Notre Dame more than Quinn. He has made the decision to decide between his two finalists instead. 

Going into the decision, Clemson is viewed as the favorite for Quinn. 

From a recruiting rankings perspective, the opinions on Quinn vary quite a bit. He is only considered a three-star recruit by 247Sports currently, coming in as the No. 34 EDGE in the country. Quinn is, however, considered a four-star recruit on both the 247Sports Composite and On3 Industry rankings, coming in as the No. 263 and No. 274 overall player in the 2026 recruiting class respectively.

If you aren’t impressed by Quinn’s rankings, you will be by his offer list. Some of the top programs that are pursuing the talented defensive end include the Fighting Irish, Georgia, Ohio State, Texas, Alabama, Michigan, Oklahoma, LSU, Miami, Tennessee, USC, Auburn, Florida State, Clemson, and Nebraska among many, many others.

From a production perspective, Quinn has not quite been able to take that massive step yet. As a junior for Greater Atlanta Christian, the 6-4, 230-pound defense was able to record 42 total tackles, 9.5 tackles for loss, and 2.5 sacks. Quinn also forced a fumble, recovered another, and hauled in seven receptions for 129 yards as a part-time player on offense.
