Notre Dame's first signed letter of intent rolled in shortly after 6 a.m. ET, and they keep on coming -- with no major surprises thus far.
It's National Signing Day, and according to Notre Dame, these recruits officially are in the fold as of 7:30 a.m. CT: defensive lineman Bruce Heggie, quarterback Luke Massa, offensive lineman Tate Nichols, athlete Derek Roback, receiver Austin Collinsworth, linebacker Prince Shembo, quarterback Andrew Hendrix, tight end Alex Welch and linebacker Prince Shembo.
One of the more important letters of intent arrived at roughly 7:18 a.m. CT -- that of defensive lineman Louis Nix, who fills a huge need for the Irish.
"The early returns are in and we're pulling our base," Irish coach Brian Kelly said in a statement. "The Cincinnati-area guys -- Luke Massa, Tate Nichols, Andrew Hendrix, Austin Collinsworth, Alex Welch. Now we're starting to get some of the other guys from other areas, like Prince Shembo. I think we've done well early in the process with guys we think we can contribute to what we're going to be doing."
