Brian KellyIn the final push toward National Signing Day 2011 on Feb. 2, FanHouse will examine the recruiting efforts of a major conference in twice-weekly notebooks. As always, recruiting is an ever changing landscape - and there are several high-profile players that remain uncommitted. Here is FanHouse's review of the Independents.

THE BEST

NOTRE DAME FIGHTING IRISH

Total commitments (as of Jan. 13): 20

Five- and four-star commitments: 6

The 411: Coach Brian Kelly is putting the finishing touches on what will be his first full year of recruiting at Notre Dame in fine style. The best future Fighting Irish talent includes DE Stephon Tuitt (6-5, 260, Monroe, Ga., Monroe Area HS), OL Matthew Hegarty (6-5, 265, Aztec, N.M., HS) and TE Ben Koyack (6-5, 230, Oil City, Pa., Oil City Senior HS). Both Hegarty and Koyack committed to Kelly and the Irish in April 2010. Also try to watch blazing-fast ATH George Atkinson III (6-2, 194, Livermore, Calif., Grenada HS), who wowed scouts with his 4.4 40 speed.

Grade: A
