Overview
- Abraham Sesay announced his pledge to Notre Dame on June 16, choosing the Fighting Irish over LSU, Penn State and Florida State.
- Rivals and 247Sports list Sesay as a five-star prospect while ESPN ranks him far lower, reflecting sharp disagreement among major scouting services.
- Sesay’s official visit to Notre Dame the weekend of June 12–14 and the arrival of defensive-line coach Charlie Partridge were cited as decisive factors in his decision.
- LSU pursued Sesay aggressively after a May campus visit and has recent recruiting momentum, including signing five-star DE KJ Green, but still lost the race for the edge rusher.
- A 6-foot-6, 235-pound junior with 80 tackles and 13 sacks last season, Sesay said he canceled a planned FSU visit and confirmed he will enroll in 2027 and compete for immediate playing time.
