Irish 2012 Recruiting Class Swells to 12

As of today, Brian Kelly and staff have assembled a dozen recruits for the 2012 class. Although this class is no where near finalized, it shaping up to be one of the more impressive classes in the country. Currently, ESPN has Notre Dame ranked as the 14th best recruiting class in the nation. As the college football season finally gets under way, I expect to see more top talent in the nation commit to the Irish. As usual, the USC game will be very important for recruiting as many of the Irish's top targets will be visiting. Here are a list of the current Irish commits for the class of 2012.
