James Simon, a standout running back from Calvary Baptist in 2025 Shreveport, Louisiana, was back on campus at Notre Dame for the second time, and for the first time since the USC game last season. For the past two days, Simon has been in town delving more into the Irish program.
Heading into the visit, Notre Dame needed to make a strong impression with Simon if it was going to have any chance in the end. The plan has always been for the talented runner to take official visits and commit before the season, so time is running out.
It appears that the Irish did make a splash with Simon during the return trip.
