KeiVarae Russell continues to break news on Instagram. The junior cornerback used the social media site to announce when Notre Dame held his hearing in the academic dishonesty investigation and to announce his departure from the school for the year with an intent to return in 2015. Now, he has used it to indicate senior receiver DaVaris Daniels is also "likely" to return in the fall.

"Im [sic] sure my followers and the country will be pleased to hear that [Daniels] is now likely to return to Notre Dame with me next year despite what media says!!" Russell posted late Thursday afternoon. "Watch how we take this negative and turn it into somethin [sic] special and memorable! Both gonna make people wish we didn't have this much time to work!"

Both Russell and Daniels — as well as fifth-year senior linebacker Kendall Moore, senior safety Eilar Hardy and senior defensive lineman Ishaq Williams — were removed from the team this fall due to academic transgressions. Irish head coach Brian Kelly has said both Russell and Williams intend to rejoin the team in the summer, while Hardy may do so following this week's bye.

Now, at least according to Russell, Daniels may join the Irish in 2015, as well.
