Kamden Lopati, a standout quarterback from Salt Lake City, has been making waves in the recruiting world, and his latest offer from Notre Dame is a game-changer. Despite being committed to Illinois since last July, Lopati is now on the radar of elite programs, and the Notre Dame offer is particularly enticing.
Lopati expressed his excitement, saying, "It was a blessing. It was definitely like a dream come true.
It was one of those offers that I don't really know how to explain." The allure of Notre Dame is clear, and it's a significant contender in his recruitment journey.
In addition to Notre Dame, Lopati has received offers from Michigan and Michigan State, adding to the complexity of his decision-making process. He's already familiar with Notre Dame, having attended a camp there and built a relationship with quarterbacks coach Gino Guidugli. Schools like Cal and Duke are also vying for his attention.
Lopati recently showcased his talents at the Under Armour All-America Game, competing against some of the nation's top juniors. Reflecting on the experience, he said, "It’s kind of like a different level of high school.
I was kind of playing JV and then got to Florida. It was kind of like varsity, so it was pretty fun to play in."
With Notre Dame's recruiting class for 2027 already boasting seven commits, the focus is now on securing the right quarterback. Lopati is a prime target, and his decision will be closely watched by fans and analysts alike.
