South Bend, IN.- Notre Dame’s first verbal commit from the 2026 class, Dylan Faison, has locked in an Official Visit with the Fighting Irish.
Faison scheduled his OV with Notre Dame for June 13-15, he tells the NewEraPrep staff. When asked about the thing he’s most excited for ahead of his weekend get away to South Bend, Dylan stated:
“The thing I’m the most excited for is the opportunity to get on campus with some of our new commits and develop relationships and build that chemistry.”
As the title states- Dylan Faison is a two sport phenom for the St. Andrews Scots, dominating in both football and lacrosse. Faison is rated as a 3-Star recruit in football, and is the #1 recruit in his class for lacrosse. Dylan was Offered by the Fighting Irish on March 17, 2024 during their ‘Pot of Gold Day‘ sweepstakes. The Pot of Gold Day is an annual St. Patrick’s Day tradition for Marcus Freeman and his staff, as the Fighting Irish will Offer high level prospects from across the Country. Dylan would accept the Irish’s Offer, and commit the following day.
After a great conversation with @Im_MikeB @MikeDenbrock @Marcus_Freeman1 and Chad Bowden I’m honored and blessed to announce that I have received an offer to my dream school, the University of Notre Dame. Thank you coaches, already feels like family!! #GoIrish #PotOfGold pic.twitter.com/tApk3OruJD

Jordan’s been a stand out on both the football and men’s lacrosse teams, helping lead the Fighting Irish to a National Title appearance in both sports. At the end of his true freshman season, Jordan won MVP of the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl after a 5 reception, 115 yard and 1 touchdown performance vs Oregon State. Jordan’s just as elite on the lacrosse circuit, as he’s recorded 44 points in two seasons.
