San Diego State AztecsSeptember 9, 2008Kickoff: 3:30 ET Notre Dame Stadium |

| Marlon Pollard | 6-1 | 160 | CB | Cajon, CA | **** | **** |
| UHND's Take: Notre Dame got a corner with some very good coverage skills in Pollard. He will need to put in his fair share of time in the weight room to be a factor in the run game, but as a pure cover corner, he is very advanced technique wise for a high schooler. | ||||||
| Nicholas Tausch | 6-1 | 180 | K | Dallas, TX | n/a | n/a |
| UHND's Take: Notre Dame gave Dustin Hopkins a deadline to make his decision and when he stalled, Weis gave Tausch the offer. Tausch jumped at the offer and is said to have the more accurate leg. | ||||||
| Ben Turk | 6-0 | 185 | P | Ft Lauderdale, FL | n/a | n/a |
| UHND's Take: Turk is considered by some to be the best punter in the country and with no kickers taken in this most recent class, Weis decided to targeted a kicker and a punter. | ||||||
| Alex Bullard | 6-4 | 275 | OG | Brentwood, TN | **** | **** |
| UHND's Take: Bull is an absolute monster of an offensive linemen and has the versatility to be able to play tackle if he continues growing. As is, Bullard is a top notch OL for this class. | ||||||
| Dan Fox | 6-3 | 215 | LB | Cleveland, OH | **** | **** |
| UHND's Take: Fox is a rising recruit who has a lot more speed and athleticism than most people give him credit for. Fox will play OLB and hails from the same HS as Robby Parris and John Ryan. | ||||||
| Carlo Calebrese | 6-2 | 225 | LB | Verona, NJ | **** | **** |
| UHND's Take: Calebrese is a run stuffing MLB who will need some help in pass coverage. He is very physically advanced for a HS linebacker though and could see the field early. | ||||||
