Notre Dame landed one of the most talented wide receivers in Florida today in three-star wide receiver Jordan Pouncey.

The Winter Park (Fla.) high school talent, a class of 2017 recruit, chose the Fighting Irish over Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, Auburn, Georgia, North Carolina and many other top programs across the country.

This is a big get for Notre Dame and the staff knows it. Led by running backs coach Autry Denson and associate head coach/wide receivers coach Mike Denbrock, the Irish made Pouncey a major priority.

“Coach Denson is a great coach and an even better recruiter,” said Pouncey of Denson. “He’s one of the best coaches that I’ve dealt with. Coach Denbrock is a real good guy. I was excited to finally meet him and coach Denson.”

Most pegged Pouncey to end up in Gainesville at the University of Florida, following in the footsteps of his cousins, formers Gators Mike Pouncey and Maurice Pouncey. However, in the end, he decided to create his own path in South Bend.

“The tradition and the academics,” said Pouncey, when asked what he likes most about Notre Dame. “That’s what matters most.”

Per 247Sports, Pouncey is the No. 103 wide receiver nationally and No. 103 prospect in the state of Florida from the class of 2017.

As a junior, Pouncey totaled 15 catches for 515 yards and seven touchdowns. During a recent spring game, Pouncey totaled three catches for 198 yards and three touchdowns.
