Notre Dame Football Recruiting: Top 5 Targets
By Andrew Hall
K.C. McDermott–OL–West Palm Beach, FL (Palm Beach Central)
McDermott is perhaps the best Offensive Tackle in the 2014 class. 247Sports.com has McDermott ranked as the 31st player overall in the class. McDermott is down to Notre Dame and Miami. He has visited Miami three times and visited Notre Dame on March 26th for an unofficial visit.
The need for Offensive Linemen cannot be overstated. One of the reasons that Notre Dame lost the National Title is that they did not have enough Offensive Linemen to practice hard in preparation for the game. McDermott is a player who would give immediate quality depth to the Left or Right Tackle position and then could compete to start in his second year.
