Notre Dame 2026 WR target Kohen Brown commits to the Texas Longhorns
It looked like Notre Dame football was going to make a run at former USC wide receiver commit Kohen Brown, but that took a big turn on Sunday evening.
The 6-foot and 190-pound prospect had scheduled an official visit to see South Bend next weekend, but that might not happen as Brown committed to the in-state Texas Longhorns. He took an official visit there this weekend, and that trip sealed the deal for him.
While its unfortunate that Notre Dame is most likely no longer part of his plans, Brown has yet to say that he won't make the visit, there are still more than a few high-level wide receivers they are after.
Another Texan in Brayden Robinson is set to commit on June 20th, when he is scheduled on his official visit to see the Irish. Florida's Brian Williams is also an option, as his official will start on June 19th, and Notre Dame will host Devin Fitzgerald, Larry's son, on June 13th.
The Irish have options to add another wide receiver in 2026, and currently have Bubba Frazier and Dylan Faison committed at the position.

Should the Boston Celtics consider trading Jaylen Brown this summer?
Should the Boston Celtics consider trading Jaylen Brown this summer? The Boston Celtics are expected to make some big changes this summer. As currently constructed, the roster is estimated to cost $500 million next season, once luxury taxes are accounted for. As such, it makes sense that Brad Stevens will want to make some changes, especially as the rotation is getting older and the team isn't expected to be a contender next season. Kristaps Porzingis, Jrue Holiday and Sam Hauser are seen as the most logical trade candidates for Boston. However, Stevens may need to include Jaylen Brown in the negotiations if he opts to make a bigger change. However, that is unlikely unless a star-level talent is heading to the Celtics in return. Still, Brown's $285 million contract, which will see him earn $53.1 million next season, will ensure that his name is floated in trade rumors. After all, if the Celtics are looking to cut costs, moving Brown is one of the easiest ways to do so, despite the clear downgrade effect that would have on the roster. During a recent episode of "The Greg Hill Show," the concept of trading Brown was discussed. The hosts even dove into a hypothetical move for Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is rumored to potentially be available this summer. Brown's impact and contract status were both factored into the discussion, with the hosts looking at the pros and cons of keeping him around.

Tennessee 2026 center Gan-Erdene Solongo commits to Notre Dame basketball
Tennessee 2026 center Gan-Erdene Solongo commits to Notre Dame basketball Notre Dame men's basketball is taking a page out of football head coach Marcus Freeman's book, as it has landed its second commitment in as many days. On Sunday it was Jonathan Sanderson, a Michigan point guard and son of the Irish's new director of strength & conditioning Jon. On Monday morning, Tennessee center Gan-Erdene Solongo joined him in Notre Dame's 2026 class. The 7-foot and 270-pounder is ranked by On3 as its No. 99 overall recruit, giving the Irish two top-100 players in the group. Head coach Micah Shrewsberry hasn't put it all together on the court, but he is building towards much better times in South Bend. Last year's four commits were ranked as the No. 5 overall class in the 247Sports Composite, and with these two verbals, Notre Dame is again near the top of the rankings in 2026 at No. 7. The future is extremely bright for the Irish, as they continue to add impressive talent to the roster.
