Number 10

The Irish yesterday secured their 10th verbal commitment when Springdale (Ark.) High School offensive lineman Bartley Webb told head coach Charlie Weis, he will commit to the Irish. Webb chose Notre Dame over Arkansas, Michigan, Texas and Florida, telling you that Webb is very talented player. You can certainly see some of that talent in these highlight clips. Based on the current lack of OL depth at Notre Dame, he probably won't be sitting on the bench too long. This is a critical commitment for the Irish who have signed only 4 offensive linemen in the past two years.
