Notre Dame misses out on four-star wide receiver
Notre Dame misses out on four-star wide receiver Gordon Sellars choses the Tigers over the Fighting Irish, despite offer from Notre Dame.
Notre Dame has missed out on four-star wide receiver Gordon Sellars, who has chosen to commit to Clemson.
The Fighting Irish had made Sellars an offer after he visited South Bend, but he still chose the Tigers over Notre Dame. Other schools in the mix included Michigan, Ohio State and South Carolina.
Sellars is 6'2", 180 pounds and he had 50 receptions and 10 touchdowns in the 2024-2025 season. He averaged 88.6 yards per game.
The North Carolina native was widely seen as being most likely to chose Clemson, but even if the Irish were too late -- Sellars had said he'd commit this week -- perhaps the Notre Dame offer could lead to a flip further down the line.
