2027 wr quentin burrell sets spring and puts notre dame in top 10
After returning from Battle Las Vegas, 2027 Chicago (Ill.) Mt. Carmel 4-Star wide receiver Quentin Burrell got back to off-season training with his Caravan teammates and began to sift through the information that was gathered during the contact period to begin scheduling very important spring visit. Notre Dame will receive one of those visits on April 1st according to the 6-3 195-pound pass catcher.
“The conversations started in Vegas,” Burrell told LL. “Me and my parents started making decisions on the schools we wanted to visit in the spring. I appreciate all of the schools and coaches that reached out and came to see us during the contact period, but the schools that took time to come see me and the family stood out the most.
“I’m going on April 1st,” Burrell continued. “That’s the plan right now. I’m excited to see practice and getting a chance to watch CJ and the wide receivers, and getting a chance to talk to the rest of the coaches.”
Fighting Irish wide receivers coach Mike Brown spent time with Burrell and his family on consecutive days in January, and that made a good impression.
“Coach Brown and Notre Dame have been consistent,” Burrell explained. “I camped there and liked how Coach (Mike) Brown interacted with me and we continued to build our relationship.”
He will now go into the hectic final phase of the process that will see him visit 10 schools during the spring where his plan will help him trim to 5 finalists in May.
“It’s a bit of a relief,” Burrell told IB. “Now it’s the final stretch and narrowing it down again for official visits. Notre Dame has always been one of my top schools, and Coach (Mike) Brown is a cool guy. He’s easy to talk to and I appreciate him coming to see me when he can.
“I’m going to take my visits and get down to five,” Burrell continued. “During the spring visits, I want to know where I am on their board and what their plan for me is going to be. I’m just getting the remaining details to make the final cut.”
The other programs getting spring visits from Burrell include Missouri, Indiana, Miami, Michigan, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Arizona State, Vanderbilt and LSU.
“The plan is to go to all my top ten schools,” Burrell shared. “I didn’t have much time in the fall because of my schedule, so I’m going to enjoy the opportunity to see things up close and talk with the coaching staffs.”
Burrell is ranked as the nation’s No. 36 overall player by ESPN, the No. 41 overall player by 247Sports and the No. 43 overall player by Rivals/On3. He graded out as a Top 50 caliber player on the Irish Breakdown board as well.
